Postcard from Chenoa

Thank you for sending this flight through!! It was direct, and I made an a multi-city trip for super cheap. I had never heard of Penang before Jack's Flight Club emails, so when I saw it was a slow island pace, I knew I had to add it to Singapore's fast urban living. It also balanced my budget nicely. I've wanted to go to Singapore for years, and this was just the right time! Because it was out of season, it ended up being affordable for a solo traveller. I stayed 5 nights in Singapore and 4 in Malaysia. Oh - I ended up paying £80 both ways for extra leg room on such a long flight (Singapore Airlines) but something went wrong on their end (I think they changed planes) and I ended up being refunded for my seats. When I checked in, they still put me in extra leg room and I ended up with one of the best seats on the plane returning to the UK. Had a window, no-one sat infront of me, but no-one could congregate infront of me either because I was in 3 seat formation. (Does this make sense?! Look up 42K on Boeing 777-300ER). I was also lucky enough to celebrate Deepavali (Diwali) partly but unlucky enough to leave ON the day. So it was slightly busy, but everyone was out having fun.I'm hoping that within the next 2 years, JacksFlightClub have a partnership with a few hotel chains or booking companies so I can get cheaper deals for accommodation. Or even some attractions, because Klook was absolutely AWFUL on a few things and their customer service leaves little to be desired.It was incredibly difficult only choosing one photo to upload but I've just gone for a landscape one :)
