    DPS - SIN with a European twist

    Once through the priority lane, I boarded and found my very comfortable seat for a 2 hour trip. The only flaw that I found personally was that the tray table was not sturdy as it was a fold out half tray with no support between the two trays underneath. Once settled in the cabin crew...
