germany, here i come

after checking on numerous websites, and calling 3 different ppl with agents to help me compare the prices, i have finally settled on MAS online booking. what i get online is cheaper than those quoted by travel agents. confirm. so for ppl who need to find flight tickets, u just need to be more resourceful online and u will get cheaper tickets. weekend is more expensive. and no harm trying all airlines. and also be flexible with dates.
although Emirates are cheaper by RM20, i dun want to wait for a few hours in dubai for the connecting flight. after all rm20 is not much. so below are the details of my flight:

Kuala Lumpur International Airport To: Frankfurt/Main International
Flight: Malaysia Airlines MH6 Aircraft: Boeing 777-200
Depart: Thu, 20 Nov, 23:59 Arrive: Fri, 21 Nov, 06:05
Number of stops: 0 Class: Economy

Frankfurt/Main International To: Kuala Lumpur International Airport
Flight: Malaysia Airlines MH5 Aircraft: Boeing 777-200
Depart: Wed, 31 Dec, 12:00 Arrive: Thu, 01 Jan, 06:40
Number of stops: 0 Class: Economy

Net price: MYR 2650.00
Total Taxes and Surcharges: MYR 1782.00
Total Flight Price: MYR 4432.00
Total paid: MYR 4432.00


the surcharges and taxes are more expesive than the flight ticket hor. i manage get the super saver price, hence it is less than rm4500. now there is a big hole in the bank account. ouch.
seats for both flights have been booked too. it is a 2-5-2 seater, and i get the aisle seat on the right side of the plane. hopefully i will get 2 seats for myself lah....or let the flight be not full, then all 5 seats to sleep!

the next thing to check out is the Euro exchange rate. will it go any lower?? it is about RM4.8 now. sob! sob!
