Jetstar

andrew and i went to adelaide on aug 9-12.  last month i tried to book flights on jetstar, found a good deal for $430 for two return tickets on the internet and booked.  to save money on credit card charges, i chose to pay by bank transfer, which would take about four days to confirm.

After about ten days i still had not heard from them so i gave them a call one evening.  the operator asked for the booking reference and said she could not find my booking.  i then found out that instead of an I, (capital i), i typed in no. 1 instead.

so operator said since they did not confirm this booking, money will be refunded back to my account, and suggested that i rebook.  then she said  i was booked on AUG 6-12, instead of aug 9!

obviously i made a mistake when doing the booking, but since they said transaction did not come thru, i was soooo happy to make another booking, this time with the right date, AUG 9-12 , and found  an even much cheaper price, ie
$390 for two returns.

interestingly enough, the very next morning, the oringial booking for Aug 6 came through to my email, i immediately called Jetstar who graciously agreed to refund this money to me since i was advised to make and had made another booking.

this is incredible! i am really being looked after nicely by all the positive forces in the universe: being able to rebook on the correct date without penalty and at even lower prices.   i owe this to my chanting nam myo ho renge kyo and my buddhist practice.

glad to share
