need to ask all experienced ppl here..
- now i have tis situation. i joined this tour package to go to taiwan for 5 days 4 nights. since i'm already there, i would like to extend another 2 days on my own. so i ask my agent if i can change my flight back which is on day 5 to day 7 instead. she say ok but i need to pay extra rm530 (include meal onboard). Pls bear in mind that the money i pay beforehand for 5D&4N is included of return air tix. so, i was quite surprised with the amount money i have to pay. so i went AA site to check the tix - altogether lesser than rm500.
so i was wondering, if i shud
a) buy a new ticket myself... at least cheaper than the price she offer
or
b) still maintain the original date of flying back, but go change the date myself. is this possible? any charges/penalty besides paying the diff btw the 2 flights?
as of now, i check the price for both date flying back one is still the same lo..
hmm.. anyone can enlighten me?
Well i guess they just charge u some service fee for change of flights.
coz u need to pay diffrence in fare + RM100 aa admin fee to airasia..
(eg. when u booked u paid RM100 incl tax for return , n now its RM150 incl tax for return via the website.That means u have to pay diffrence in fare RM50 + RM100 admin fee = RM150
If u have the itinery n u can manage ur own booking then change it urself..
If not buy a one way ticket via aa to come back.
Coz right now u check the dates might be the same price but if ur travel agent might have booked it at a cheaper rate coz she book much earlier.she might have booked it at RM100 n now the rate is RM350 so u need to pay her RM250+ 100 aa admn fee + her service fee
I guess either way if not much diffrence might as well buy a new ticket..this way u can still choose o come back earlier or come back 2 days later.
If what ur travel agent offer u is much cheaper than u buy ur own ticket then get from ur travel agent.
