How much longer will SQ operate for TR

[Melburnian1]

SQ8121 i a SIN - SYD redeye that's been operating for months in lieu of TR metal due to problems with the latter's fleet.

There may also be a return flight operating SIN - PER.

How much longer will these aircraft (and crew) substitutions continue? (On Saturday 22 June, SQ8121 has B772ER 9V-SVE as its aircraft.) The entertainment is switched off on these flights if I recall, but passengers receive a bonus meal and drink ('bonus' because normally on TR in Y, one has to pay.)

Dunno for how much longer, but SQ has been leasing planes to TR for quite some time, both the B777 and an A330. Service on board is scaled back - same as TR, with no IFE. But for 'scootbiz' pax it's a nice upgrade.
