There are days when we need to know God understands our concerns – especially when it comes to taking care of aged parents. My wife and I encountered two unexpected surprises.
29/June/2015. Nire emaztea oso azken momentuan to Sydney iristeko lehenago hegaldi beharrezko. Bere irteera hegaldi egun bat lehenago aldatu behar izan dut 1 Uztailera 30 June. The ticket was a simple lowest cost economy class that was originally booked in April. I requested for the change less than 36 lehenagora ordu. Get this. Eserleku bat lortu nuen, but here’s the amazing thing…I also got a $7.90 itzultzea. I can understand we have to pay a changing fee (eta hala egin nuen) but I got a shock of my life when I received a refund from Qantas Airways. Ez nuen inoiz instantzia bat, non dirua itzultzea lortu nuen hegaldiak aldatuz for topo!
Zer da, beraz, apur bat lortzeko esanguratsuak $7.90 itzultzea? Big akordio eskubidea? Well it was a big deal. Nire emaztea zen jatorriz programatuta to Sydney joan 1 Uztaila familia ezkontza batean parte hartzeko. An unexpected incident happened where her mum suddenly suffered a stroke, and my wife had to rush to see her before 1 Uztaila. Maite baten laguntzaz joan beharrean emozio gazi-gozoa, eta ezkontza bat ospatzen aste berean zaila izan zen.
27/Jul/2015. My wife was now back in Singapore. My wife planned to go back to Sydney to see her mum and family again. Her desire was to go on 3 Abuztua. Flights to Sydney were very expensive at this time of the year. I had been monitoring the airfare on Scoot, Qantas, Singapore Airlines over 2 aste. All expensive. Using my Singapore Airlines frequent flyer points to redeem a seat on the cheapest Economy Saver class at the end of July/early Aug was extremely difficult, to say the least. Frequent flyer seats were available, but they were on a higher class.
On that morning, I logged in to the Singapore Airlines website. What were the chances of getting a Economy Saver seat to Sydney on 3 Abuztua? I proceeded to check. Nire harridura … lo and behold, there was one available seat at the 8:15pm flight using the Economy Saver class on the 3 August to Sydney. Just one. This was just one week before departure and God provided that one seat needed. I was very encouraged because it is very difficult to redeem frequent flyer seats in general 1 week before departure! I quickly booked the seat. The flight on the A380 was nearly completely full as I was selecting seats for my wife. Once that was done, I checked the Singapore Airlines website, and there were no more Saver seats. 3 days later, I rechecked and basically all the Saver, Standard seats were gone (see below).
Jakinduriazkoak 18:6 dio, "Nire apuros dei Jaunari dut, Oihukatu nuen laguntza eske nire Jainkoari. Bere tenplu nire ahotsa entzun zuen; nire oihua haren aurrean dugunik, Bere belarriak "sartu. The $7.90 refund and the ability to get a Saver class seat on the exact day we wanted to go, one week before departure helped my faith fly. Ikasgaia ikasi: Pray to God for help when you need it. Jainkoak erantzun ahal ustekabeko bidea.
