1) Cheapest Price: Newshan Travels Singapore Airline: $800 China Airline: $710 Difference between China and Singapore? China airline departs singapore at 2.40pm whereas singapore airline is 8.00am China ariline Leaves taiwan at 9.00am whereas Singapore airline can choose 1.45pm or 6.30pm So that means we actually have more time in taiwan if we take singapore airline. However, this agency do not provide transport to and fro the airport from hotel. the airport is located like 1hour plus away frm the hotel. the agency say that we can take the airport bus which is TW $120. ard Sin$6. i feel tat going to the hotel from the airport isnt a big problem but frm hotel to airport? prob have to take taxi.
2) Most Valued for Money with 1 day tour: Feng Ge Jetstar: $720( subjected to changes) China: $796 Difference b/w Jetstar and china Jetstar departs sin at 1.00pm and departs from taiwan at 6.25pm...so abit longer time in tw than taking China airlines. but no meals will be provided on Jetstar..budget air The 1 day full tour includes, going to famous eating places and Hotspring. Transport is provided to and fro airport
3) Most Valued for money without any tour: Dynasty Tour China Airlines: $708 Transport provide to and fro airport
Okie..pls choose which one u prefer k? if u like the jetstar de..then we muz chop chop go and book le..coz the price will rise anytime according to demand. so earlier we book the cheaper we can get!
Yah..confirm that all of u are free on 15th of june to 20th jUne? July cannot rite? If july can then even better coz is after school holidays...cheaper!
Get back to us soon so we can book soon!

Hotel: QiLin Airline: China Price: $796 Remarks: Same as above
Hotel: Qilin Airline: SQ Price: $953 Remarks: Same as above
For all the above quoted prices includes all breakfast, all transport to and fro airport unless otherwise stated. and i manage to get more info from the agency about hotels. Rainbow is a smaller hotel but is located in the heart of Xi Men Ding. But Qilin is a bigger hotel that is located 10-15 min walking distance frm Xi Men Ding. Rainbow is small so might not get rooms...due to popularity.
so pls look through and tell me which one u prefer k? with packaged tour? with hotspring? with good airplanes?? haha

ok since i'm not getting my 4th consecutive post, i shall blog freely! anyways we had a mini class gathering yesterday, and turnout was pretty good!
Wenting, Sok, david and I went for kbox at katong shopping centre as reccomended by the 03s78 seniors i guess! the place was pretty small, but it had most of the newer songs! and cheaper than the kbox and kster too! we sang for 4 hours until our throats could not take it anymore.. =p oh and sok was grumbling that they didn't have the lin yi chen song. can't rmb the title tho.
After that we went down the road for a fake 十字路口!we first went to this kinda famous bakery and ate their muffins and cream puffs. cheap and nice! then who can forget the famous delicacy in katong! KATONG LAKSA! i think we went to the 386 katong laksa, which was b/w 59 katong laksa and some other katong laksa. haha!!
oh then was the official class dinner, where lotsa ppl turned up! after that we nuah-ed at esplanade. and then nuah-ed somewhere else. then ppl left. i guess that's how our class outing ends huh???
BUT junny shouheng and i caught Mr Bean after the whole thing! it was unltra hilarious and corny at times, but it had a cool ending to it too!
oh i've crapped enough. now let's wait for sok to post pictures! (let's forget the one taken by the photographer with shaky hands =p)
