The disadvantage is that you can’t log in and change your seat or order book the cook. You have to call SQ for that.
That’s interesting. I just flew SQ J on a VA ticket overnight. I couldn’t change online but maybe that’s because it was a purchased ticket not a redemption. These things are so inconsistent.I recently flew a biz redemption from Europe — booked with VA, flying SQ — the emailed booking confirmation had both VA and SQ booking reference codes on the attachment.
Was able to log into the SQ site and choose seats/book the cook etc. without any problem.
Not sure how long this has been the case, definitely had to call VA a few years back to get the SQ reference.
