Inside Scoot Cabins Or "Hey Goober, Where's the Legroom?"

The sick bag is considered as part of your carry-on allowance.

They also weigh the sick bag on the way out of the plane. $100 per KG excess baggage. Better not be sick!

Are these the yellow uniforms?

Have decide to abort the mission of taking the Scoot run today OOL/SIN.
After reading through the threads... But the colour scheme inside & out really has put me off... Not too mention the extra charges... Just don't have a extra SGD 300 in cash for the extras on hand today .. & the sight of 7.5 hours enduring the cabin ambience & the uniforms & perms is just too much..

I'll give it another shot as soon as I source some darker anti yellow sunglasses...:mrgreen:

I saw the aircraft @ OOL... My gosh... Big Bird or Spongebob should be the mascot.. Matching outfits

Anyway it's origin night...

Mal please report back on the flight..

Cheers jl

Just curious how much are you throwing away by not taking the flight?

I just did a dummy booking on Scoot with Seat+Bag+Eat, pillow/blanket, bulkhead seat, inflight entertainment return and no points/lounge access then tried the same dates on QF.
Scoot is only $90 each way less with all the extras than Qantas, why would you put up with getting squashed on a plane with budget service for a saving of $90 each way..

I'll still be flying Qantas/SQ thank you very much!

Probably depends on what days you go, same deal for me without the blanket each way but with everything else is $481 return,that is big enough difference to tempt a few!

Did I just spot a FA in the background with hi-vis polo shirt and frizzy 80's perm? Please tell me it isn't so.:shock: In light of these photo's I can actually see VA doing syd-sin. There has to be an alternative...

Yeah, cos Scoot are the only airline that fly SYD-SIN.....

 

[docjames]

How would hi-vis go on Scoot's yellow seating?

Also you cannot forget the $8 air-vent charge. If you don't pay they block off the air-vent above your head resulting in a hot flight.

I was on a classic LCC Tiger Airways flight CRK/SIN sometime ago. The FA actually scolded the passenger for consuming her own food on the flight. It was noted as a reference to the menu card that consumption of BYO food was not permitted...

 

[wallacej]

Too many ideas folks... Stop it, no doubt there is a middle exec in an LLC somwhere looking at this thread thinking, heck, didnt even consider an air vent charge

Have 4 days off next week so thinking my partner and I will give Scoot a shot and have a few days in Singapore. Will post a trip review if we end up going Scoot.

Also have to abort a Scoot Trip after a work contract got extended for a bit. Total loss is under $400 so not a big issue....

My invoice is includes
Fares ($80 and $90 each)
Fees and taxes ($120)
Seat request ($120)

Booked as an Economy - Sale fare with BagEat and Bag extensions.

Views on whether I will get Taxes back - am pretty sure I lose the fare and seat request.

O/T I don't wear yellow. Ever.

O/T Didn't you wear something yellow when you were in AKL?

It might have been beige, but..... :mrgreen:

More seriously, if you're frightened by the gumboot yellow, you'd probably never even set foot on a FR aircraft - ever. (Hopefully my latest TR will show some photos, just to scare you all! )

Legally you should get the taxes back I believe, how long it will take is another story .......
