Anyone know which is the cheapest airline that flies directly from SG to London Heathrow??

So far the only two I can think of is BA which charges about $900++ for 1 way and SQ which charges a lot more :/
Finair is like 700+

For those who are gg to UK this year, you can refer to Imperial College Freshman Guide for Singaporeans. Though it is meant for Imperial College students, but it is a good read for the rest of UK bound Singaporeans.

Hello! How are you guys going to set up your bank account? Is it advisable to do the HSBC acct here? Or should I just do a local bank account there? But wouldnt the charges be high if my parents were to transfer the money directly to the local bank there? Need some advices. :frown:

I think unless you or your parents owned a HSBC account (advanced/premium), there wouldn't be any charges for inter-bank transfer.

Thanks for clarifying, I didn't know of one as well but apparently the UKBA website suggested that i bring along my itinerary for submission.
