Extremely Cheap Etihad Business Class MNL-Italy-SE Asia

[clifford]

I happened to stumble upon these fares, which are the cheapest I've ever seen for EY SE Asia-Europe return in business class. Lots of availability and can easily be booked on the Etihad website. Basic J, so pay for seats, lounge access (if you need them), Personally, I wouldn't bother, as a Priority Pass would be a better option.

Here's an example:

Interesting that was a split flight

Outbound from Manila
inbound to Jakarta took $300 off the charge !

Wamos operates the MNL routes and also some European routes so it’s a big no for me

I just found the same with Etihad outbound Manila with return to Singapore. My question now is, if the flight out of Manila departs at 5.20am, would flying in the previous evening at 8.30pm with Qantas be wise? I have read here that when you fly out of Aisa to take advantage of the J flights, to give yourself a day's grace in case of delays.

Well consider this, if for some reason something happened to the QF flight, can you still get to MNL in time on alternates. If the answer is no then I'd make sure you have solid TI to cover it.

3 of the 4 flights in your example are Wamos though not Etihad.

They have very average reviews so these are probably cheap for a reason.
