Tiger Airways slashes fares in 48-hour madness promo

“Small Prices, Big Pleasures” promo offers 200,000 seats at mega discounts for 16 destinations.

Tiger Airways is expecting a 48-hour madness this Tuesday and Wednesday, with 200,000 seats at big discounts up for grabs.

This “Small Prices, Big Pleasures” promotion covers 16 exciting destinations in China, India and Southeast Asia. For instance, Kuala Lumpur is only $19 including taxes, while all Thai destinations are only $40 including taxes.

As bonus, bookings at these promotional fares are also eligible for Tiger Airways’ current lucky draw for a car and free flights.

Travel periods for this promotion differ according to the destination, according to a Tiger Airways report.

“This crazy promotion is our way of giving back to passengers during the Great Singapore Sale, and helping retailers get back on their feet after last week’s flooding of Orchard Road," said Rosalynn Tay, Managing Director of Tiger Airways Singapore.

Tay said the promotions are crazy but genuine.

"When we say 200,000 seats, we mean 200,000 seats, unlike other airlines who may exaggerate the number of seats on promotion. Tiger Airways can keep offering low, low fares, by saving on unnecessary costs such as flying long-haul and sponsoring premium sports events,” Tay added.
