Far East routing

Hi all,
We're planning to head out to SIN for a wedding next year but we'd also like to visit Japan. I was thinking of doing a routing like LHR-NRT-SIN-LHR. Does anyone have tips as to how best to achieve a booking on this itinery?
The VS website will quote LHR-NRT, SIN-LHR as a return trip, but the missing NRT-SIN leg is very expensive when booked oneway elsewhere.
I'd also consider package holidays since we'll need accomodation if anyone knows of a twin-centre holiday like this.

Thanks!!!

A twin centre package on this itinerary would be straight forward, and you would get a better rate on the 'missing' sector on a package IT fare.

I would recommend my travel agent but don't think I would be allowed to give you the contact details on here without breaking a v-flyer rule.

I guess that would be classed as 'advertising'!

There's always the PM function [:)] I'd expect NRT-SIN to be an expensive flight though, especially on SQ.

Thanks,
Sarah

Have you checked the price of a return fare NRT-SIN? One-way fares tend to book into a flexible class so are expensive. You might find a much cheaper discount return ticket. Nobody is going to force you to use the return leg... [:w]
