Not sure what you're asking.
Is TG only bookable using AC by phone? because I don't see anything on their website.

Can be booked online AFAIK. Check 10/27 for example.

ETA:


Yes, I've booked it online.

YQ is a little high, but makes a great value when adding BKK-CNX-BKK and adding an infant for only $125.

Old F? Referring to the 747 400 bed? Or the old first, like the real old first?

Sometimes. I think that in DEN you still have a better chance to get the old F than EWR... Someone CMIIW, I think EWR has the new F most of the time.

Couldn't help myself... I'm gonna have to commit myself to an institution, I know. Especally because I'm not positive we can go on these dates because Mrs. AJK is sleeping  :o

Because I can't stop fiddling:



Green:

SQ R + SQ F
178,500 SQ + $658 YQ

Total travel time of 38 hours, including 20 hour overnight stopover in SIN.

Red:

TG F (new old F in 747) + TG F (new F in A380) + CX J
80,000 UA + $0 YQ

Total travel time of 37 hours, including 10 hour stopover in BKK.

Updated.

Assuming that change, what would you do? (Note, just looking for opinions, you don't have had to fly to opine!)

I know; it's a crazy price difference.

40K/pax UA for 2 segments in TG F, new or old, is like almost too good to pass up.

...Right?
