  • Your opinons on SQ?

    Guys ive just booked a flight to Perth from LHR via SIN on SQ, was just wondering if any of you have had experiance on this route or on this airline? i should be on a 744/772 id imagine.
    Cheers

    I SQ! I have flown them more than any other airline internationally and they are superb. The food is great, the service is excellent, the IFE is very good and the female F/As are hot! I also love connecting through Singapore (one of my favourite places in the world).

    The 777s are, IMHO, much nicer than the 744s. Not sure if it is true or just a matter of perception, but the seats seem bigger and the seat pitch seems better on the 777. The 777s are configured 3-3-3 (MH, for example is configured 2-5-2) and the 744s are standard 3-4-3.

      Sounds good. I was expecting to fly Business for the amount i paid but no such luck. I have to say out of all the asian city's ive flwon to/via SIN doesnt really do it for me. HKG and BKK on the other hand are sweet

        Hi BA747-436,

        I have flown that sector many times with many different airlines and SQ has to be one of the better suppliers. Admittedly, I predominantly fly business and first class, SQ still offer a very amiable economy service.

        Other airlines which notably serve that route which I would highly recommend are MH and QF.

          Hi Dan
          Well my experience on SQ is pretty old now, dates back to 1999 (a rtrn CDG-SIN-CDG ,744 both legs, travel agent fam-trip) Even though I was aware the airline was focusing on quality, I was nethertheless IMPRESSED.
          Should I am due to fly again even in ten years, will give them a chance.

            I hear that they are still great, but starting to lose that magic touch because of damn low cost carriers.

              I love SQ, I flew them to SIN last winter and am going with them again next month, last time I came back from SIN was the only time I ever stayed awake for the full 13 hours of the flight mostly because I was hooked on the IFE all the way . LHR-SIN will be 744 then the PER sector is a 777 (at the moment), hopefully you won't be disappointed although I can only compare them to QF/BA/AA/NW as far as long haul goes which is not much to go on.

                    Hey BA747-436, you probably did the worst mistake in your life that you booked SQ flt. Especialy if you are traveling a lot. You'll hardly find the company that will match or overmatch the standards that SQ will give you. That means that if you'll fly SQ once then you have to fly them on all your flights in the future. Otherwise you'll be very sad. :P

                    SQ never or forever!!!

                      Im sure your right, although with SQ's exorbitant prices, and the fact that they don't usualy fly from London to LA or JFK i think i'll be sticking to AA in the near future :P

                        Dan, i really like SQ. I used to do LHR-SIN-ADL run a fair bit a few years back, on their 744's and A310's.

                        More recently its been MAN-SIN-ADL. Preferred it over EK on the same routing. It was 772ER equipment - mostly all with Wisemen3000 AVOD. Food pretty good, service fine, and leg room not too bad.

                        We gave up flying QF/BA as SQ offered a much better value package.

                          Hey Dan, I thought that sort of talk belonged in the crew forum where my wife can't read it

                            define woman - many people refer to aircraft as "she, or her". I think that defines my post Matt.....to clear anything up with the wife

                              on a side note SQ was the cheapest although EK had a huge sale on.
