Just hope SQ think about the 'cough comfort factor' this time around. As big as SQ F seats and as big as the J 'diamond' seats on 380 / 77W are - the are terribly hard to 'sit' on - IMHO.

 

[civinod]

Totally agree.

SQ F & J seats might have the biggest real estate in the sky but they are a pain to sit in.

Bigger is not always best.

Hope they have learnt from their mistakes.....

OK here is a question for all of those who consider themselves to be 'experts' on all matters SQ:

Q: Apart from hard seats in Standard F – what is the one singular aspect of SQ F that is SO SO SO disappointing?

 

[Cruiser Elite]

No Takers? I will give you a hint - one word - SGAKAFA

My tip for their new J is that is will be similar to CX - still 1-2-1 but much narrower seats (they're currently far wider than they need to be) - fully flat but angled towards the centre or the window like CX.

I like the current J seats and don't find them uncomfortable, love folding it down and laying down and lolling around with a glass of something nice, just wish I was on them for the FCO - SIN leg of our flights in Aug/Sep, its the old config 200's unless the upgrade schedule changes before I fly.

The article specifically says "The new business class seats retain a forward-facing design rather than adopting the angled and staggered herringbone layout being adopted by many airlines".

Too cryptic CE. (Singapore Girls Are...?)

I find the slippers a little underwhelming,
but other than that...can't think of anything so so so disappointing.

Too cryptic CE.

I really thought one of the learned AFFer's would have twigged to it.

Singapore Girl Also Known As Flight Attendants – this is the other failing of SQ F – they send all the young stunners down middle and rear end – J and Y – F get to experience the ‘mature experienced female cabin crew’.

Gotta tell you – one of those gorgeous 20somethins can spill a Krug on me any time they desire.

Too politically incorrect? WTCCSWCs

No one here is stopping you from flying Y...

If you are SQ PPS they might get you some

OT .... but KAGAWAYH

After only four flights on Korean Airlines I can categorically opine that Korean Airlines Girls Are WAY Hotter than SQ's talent pool. 20 something's, flawless complexion, full of smiles, willingness to help and totally gorgeous. I felt as if I was on the set of a K-pop dance clip

Yeah...right.

 

[smit0847]

Could we set up some sort of poll as to what we think the new J seats will be like to see who guesses correctly come 9 July?

 

[legroom]

..... SQ F & J seats might have the biggest real estate in the sky but they are a pain to sit in....

I disagree with this 'cough'essment esp. when it comes to the F seats.

Unlike the J seats, F leather is far more supple (on A380).

True, the F seats on 777 seem less supple but not as 'hard' as their J seats IMHO.

You may have unwittingly lumped F / J together or you just have a bad 'cough'essment day

I cannot wait to sample the new revised Suites "... All eyes will be on Singapore Airlines' ultra-luxe first class suites...."

 

[hummel]

I look forward to being able to book the *old* J/F via *A partners...
