    Hi, does anyone know of reputable firms handling excess baggage to Europe, in particular Greece? I have an allowance of 80 kgs with SQ but as I will be moving I need to send some stuff as excess baggage.

    SQ timetable gone from new website

    Singapore Airlines New Website: teething problems again! In the new version of the website there is no way to get a copy of the full timetable anymore. In the past (few months ago) I was able to download a pdf version and have it on my laptop and tablet for offline use. Any idea where it...

    Double dipping?

    Two questions: 1. Is it still possible to credit spend on PPS value but credit the miles on another *A programme? 2. Say you have an award ticket on SQ on D/I class. Is it possible to credit miles on another *A programme?

    SQ308 operational aircraft change

    Quite annoyed with SQ this evening. Flying out to LHR on SQ218/308 on March 3; SQ308 was on A380. Just been told that there is a change in aircraft to a B777W. A week ago or so, SQ308 was cancelled. Not sure why this is happening. Might change to SQ318 as this is flown on B777WN. Much...

    MEL-SIN-LHR very tight 22 Feb to early <arch

    Have been looking on Expert Flyer for availability on MEL-SIN-LHR with SQ and it shows quite full from about 22 February to early March, especially so in biz. Apart from the fact that there is no SQ308 on 24 Feb, do you have any ideas/information of why most booking classes show 0 availability?

    Have recently returned from a very short trip to Europe and had the Tumi TSA lock 'removed' from the hold luggage. Has anyone had a similar experience? There was nothing missing from the suitcase, it did not appear to have been opened, just the lock gone. Replacing it should be no problem...

    Upgrades (free or otherwise) on SQ

    What has been your recent experience with upgrades (paid or free) on SQ? I am an Elite Gold member and have never been offered a free upgrade whether travelling on business or economy class. Also, for a paid upgrade to biz on an upcoming trip, MEL-LHR, I was quoted AUD 3,320 (on a flexi saver).
