SIN-MXP will likely depart from T3. MEL-SIN will also likely land at T3, but there is a chance it could land at T2 (depends on where that aircraft is headed next - but MEL usually receives long haul aircraft A350/777s so usually more T3 focussed) Still need to allow time to clear security...

if anyone needs the media release re dates for it https://www.singaporeair.com/saar5/pdf/media-centre/press-release/AnnexeA.pdf Noting, SQ248 looks to be on of the medium haul A350s, which is less common out of MEL, no premium economy.

Was in Feb 2022. Did take 2 phone calls, first call held the additional seat in and they were going to get back to me with how many additional points it was going to cost; second call the advised the points difference and additional cost to pay.

Not sure if this helps, but I'll detail what I've done previously. I had MEL-SIN-IST booked and ticketed on SQ rewards, however my final destination was TBS I could see on the SQ site that IST-TBS was available on a redemption ticket Called SQ, asked if the IST-TBS could be added on, they were...

thanks, so in the end I used the Amex chat, they said they can apply the credit to manually made bookings... however, for TK flights, I was advised: "checking on our ticketing system, I have found out that Amex does not have an authority to sell or issue ticket for a Turkish airlines booking."

deliberate 🙄 Moving past pedantry; if anyone knows the answer to the query, thanks in advance

it's an older laptop, the keys got stuck, but thanks for asking abt it

Separate question about the Amex Explorer $400 travel credit. I understand it can be used on a range of airlines now, however when looking on the Amex Travel website, Turkish isn't coming up as an option. Would anyone know if I can use the credit by contact Amex and having them book it, or is...

Agree, it'll make a difference, but it won't be a magic bullet to solve it (which is why I suspect there might be a couple more moves to come) every bit extra helps I guess. Looking at if from a difference perspective, more departures from T2 naturally means more arriving aircraft at T2...

Wouldn't be surprised if there's still a few more airline terminal moves to come at Changi which might move more in to T2, freeing up a little bit more terminal/lounge space in T3. The most obvious one for me would be OZ, both their flights leave between 2300-0300 which is a bit of a peak in...

The crowding should improve somewhat in the SQ T3 lounges this week. From Wednedsay all Korea and most Japan flights* will switch to T2. Given most of these operate in the peak times, shifting those flights will likely move a number of people from both the Krisflyer Gold and SilverKris lounges...

It's an interesting one HBA-PER seems to be consistently A320 LST-PER seems to be 50/50 with either the all economy 737-700, or with a regular 737-800 with business

There’s an airline partnership table in esch GDS, they probably haven’t been updated yet, once NH is added to VA the linkages will work.

just going to tackle point 2A. You can book SQ flight numbers operated by VA as part of a broader SQ itinerary, eg Singapore-Melbourne-Hobart but you wouldn't be able to book a domestic VA flight in isolation as SQ flight numbers, using the above example you couldn't book SQ flight numbers just...

Thanks, thought that might be the case. The other interesting thing I noticed reading the difference between the Personal Charge card vs the Business card Business card makes no reference to Plaza Premium in their benefits on the main Amex site or in their T&C's, however the personal charge...
