More (Free) Data for Business Class and First Class Passengers on Singapore Airlines
When I flew back on Singapore Airlines from Auckland to Singapore last night, I noticed something different - despite traveling only in Business Class, I was given 100MB worth of data and this was previously reserved for First Class passengers only. After a little digging, I realised that with effect from 01 August 2019, Singapore Airlines offers 100MB to Business Class as well as PPS Club passengers (regardless of cabin class).

First Class passengers will now enjoy unlimited WiFi access for the entire duration on their flight (so long in-flight WiFi is provided). If you are traveling in Economy or Premium Economy Class, you may purchase access to the in-flight WiFi from just USD 3.99.

If you are a fairly heavy user, the Premium plan offers 200MB of data for just USD 15.99.
