Round of golf? Short taxi/Grab ride to airport. 2. Joo Chiat Rd and Geylang Rd area (lots...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    Sounds fair. Recently went SYD-SIN-MUC vv in economy, and found the comfort, service and meals consistently excellent. Very happy crew each sector and always willing to help pax with anything. SQ really does make long Y flights bearable. To prove dajop's theory, I noticed the cabin manager...

    Latest information about 28 degrees card

    I suspect that actually puts you in the high spend category, compared to the average customer. Which is why they tried this poorly-implemented fee strategy, to get rid of the very low spending customers.

    Who is going to the USA, who has changed their travel and what will you do differently?

    Scoot pilots didn't get the memo. Quite bumpy at times but no seatbelt sign for the duration of SYD-SIN.

    Arrived at SIN on a Scoot flight from SYD on Mon 7 April, all pax and their hand luggage were security screened in the terminal upon deplaning. I wonder why?

    Singapore Lounge for Virgin Australia Lounge Member flying SQ

    Just a reminder to have your friend complete the online SG Arrival Card prior to arrival, if they want to enter Singapore. It is free so any website that is official looking but wants to charge a fee is a scam.

    Because Australia is so un-racist, it is particularly jarring when you come across it (frequently) in Asia.

    Singapore Lounge for Virgin Australia Lounge Member flying SQ

    Go round to T1 and have a swim in the outdoor pool (Aerotel transit hotel). Butterfly garden, cinema. Enter Singapore (as per above comments) and visit one of the staff canteens (hawker centres) T1 or T2. Visit the underground carnival and food court in basement T3. Or even go to East Coast and...

    Mate, you need to try a bit of Zen, like that person on that other thread claims to be (but isn't).

    SATS lounge in T3 is okay, but won't be cheap for six hours.

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    Yeah, we get it. You don't like VA.

    Will you still earn/retain Velocity status beyond 2025?

    The sole reason I chase SG/WP with VA is to have status benefits when flying SQ Y, which benefits are valuable (lounge access, priority boarding etc). And VA status is easier to obtain than SQ status. But not worth it anymore.
