Trip Report - Japan Airlines Business Class SKY SUITE III JL31 - HND to BKK (Haneda to Bangkok)

in

Now this is the second time that I am flying Japan Airlines' newest Business Class product (SKY SUITE III) and the last flight from Singapore to Haneda was fairly unimpressive - the product is good but it pales in comparison to Singapore Airlines in terms of food and service (or maybe I am just biased). Check out my review of Japan Airlines' Business Class flight from Haneda to Bangkok here!

Trip Report - Japan Airlines Business Class SKY SUITE III JL36 - SIN to HND (Singapore to Haneda)

in

After pigging out in the lounge (the laksa was as good as I remember it to be!), I went straight to the boarding gate for my Japan Airlines flight to Haneda. The flight was operated on a 15-year old 777-200ER plane that has been retrofitted with the latest Business Class product - the SKY SUITE III. Since this flight did not have a First Class cabin, top-tier members of the JAL Mileage program were the first to board - this includes top-tier elite passengers who are traveling in Economy Class (much like how PPS Club Solitaire passengers are invited to board before Business Class passengers even if they are traveling in cattle class).

Trip Report: Singapore Airlines Business Class SQ947 A330-300 - DPS to SIN (Denpasar to Singapore)

in

Bali is one of my favourite places to visit (especially for a short weekend trip) as the flights out of Singapore are typically quite affordable. More importantly, there are so many hotels to choose from (even though I always return to the same few properties in the end) and some of the most memorable ones include the legendary St. Regis Bali Resort as well as the Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort. Since my flight from Bali to Singapore was in Business Class, I went straight to the Business Class check-in counters and quickly found myself at the Premier Lounge of the airport not long after.

Trip Report: Singapore Airlines SQ807 Business Class A380-800 - PEK to SIN (Beijing to Singapore)

in

made my way back to the Beijing Capital International Airport for my flight back to Singapore. Since my experience at the Air China Business Class Lounge (which I checked out in July 2017) previously has been fairly lacklustre, I have decided to try the Air China First Class Lounge instead - review of this lounge soon to come! It is definitely worth nothing that while the Air China First Class Lounge is reserved to passengers traveling on Air China and Star Alliance partners in First Class only, it is also a Priority Pass Lounge - this means to say that you will be able to access this 'esteemed' lounge if you have a valid Priority Pass membership (there is no reason why you do not have one if you hold any one of these eligible credit cards which give you free lounge access).

Trip Report: Singapore Airlines SQ285 Business Class A380-800 - SIN to AKL (Singapore to Auckland)

in

I flew from Singapore to Auckland (and back) on Singapore Airlines' Suites last year and have recently relived some of those happy moments from Singapore to Beijing where I enjoyed over a bottle of vintage Krug 2004 all to myself. Since I was booked a Premium Economy flight from Singapore to Auckland, I have waitlisted an upgrade from Premium Economy to Business Class for 35,000 KrisFlyer Miles and it cleared prior to the date of travel.

Exclusive First Look at Singapore Airlines' New A380 Cabin Products - Check out the Suites and Business Class!

in

Exactly one week ago, Singapore Airlines confirmed Sydney as the very first route that it will debut the brand new A380 cabin products. The first of the new A380 from Singapore Airlines will operate on 18 December 2017 from Changi Airport's Terminal 3 to Sydney. While there have been alleged leaks of the new Suites and even a seat map two days prior to the official event, it is now apparent that these leaks were indeed accurate and representative of the actual product. This is an exclusive first look at the brand new A380 cabin products (Suites, Business Class, Premium Economy and Economy) on Singapore Airlines.

You Can Now (Finally!) View the Inflight Menus for upcoming Singapore Airlines Flights

in

After being won over by Beijing when I visited it back in July, I planned a return visit for November this year and as I was going through the motion to Book the Cook for my flight (find out the differences in Suites/First Class versus Business in terms of BTC options!) from Singapore to Beijing, I noticed that the inflight menu is now being made available for my upcoming flight. While this is not a revolutionary new feature for the aviation industry, Singapore Airlines has been known to keep things like these (amongst other things like the new A380 products) safely guarded.
