Hi all,
Been a member here for a while, first post (I think!).
Travelling June and July next year to Europe. Flying Melbourne to Dublin, then home from Barcelona to Melbourne.
Just a few questions really.
1) When is the best time to book? Looking at economy flights now, all options seem to be circa $2k mark. Will the price change dramatically?
2) There seem to be very few options with only one stopover: the main one I see is Etihad with stopovers in AUH.
a) How do Etihad compare to say Thai or Qantas?
b) Is it worth flying with Qantas/Thai/etc via London with connecting flights?
I'd love premium/business, but with two of us going for an extended period, we don't want to stretch the budget on flights. Is it likely to get a reasonably priced option to upgrade to PE/J on the flight from say AUH>DUB?
Thanks!
