Sunt dies quando eget scire de Deo intelligit nostrum – especially when it comes to taking care of aged parents. My wife and I encountered two unexpected surprises.
29/June/2015. In fugam prior uxor necessarius impetro extremius Sydney minute. Die ante ex fuga se mutarent liquidas habui discedere 1 July to 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 horis ante discessum. Get this. I got a tribunali, but here’s the amazing thing…I also got a $7.90 refund. I can understand we have to pay a changing fee (quae feci) but I got a shock of my life when I received a refund from Qantas Airways. Illa numquam impedimentum puta possedi refund mutandi volatus!
Ut parum quid significant questus $7.90 refund? Magnus paciscor ius? Well it was a big deal. Uxorem meam primitus scheduled ad Sydney die 1 July intendere a familia nuptias. An unexpected incident happened where her mum suddenly suffered a stroke, and my wife had to rush to see her before 1 July. Dulcia amaris diligentis affectum ad auxilium, vix celebrandi nuptias in eadem hebdomada.
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 August. 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 hebdomades. 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 August? I proceeded to check. Ut trina rerum machina … 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).
Psalms 18:6 dicit, «In tribulatione mea invocavi Dominum,, Auxilium et refugium meum Deus meus. Et ipse tamquam sponsus procedens de thalamo suo; clamor meus in conspectu eum, auribus eius ". Quod $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. Discitur: Pray to God for help when you need it. Inopinatissima modo respondere tibi Deus.
