Given the "inspiration" of the new Qantas International Economy meal thread, I thought I would start SQ version as well.
So I flew SQ37 LAX-SIN and SQ231 SIN-SYD in early January 2023 in Y. You may think I am insane to take this route in Y but it was the only way to come back to Sydney from USA using points for 4 people in early January when I tried to use points, as the cash fare was ridiculously expensive. It was 55k Krisflyer miles for Y Saver for each person.
SQ37 was an 18 hours flight. First Meal, serving at hour 2:
Second Meal, serving at hour 8:
Third Meal, which is not really a meal at all, serving at hour 13. They really should have proper 3rd meal for such a long flight. They also provide sandwich snacks as well:
They did give me a Singapore Sling when I asked. So that help the flight a bit. Full flight map in case you are interested:
I arrived at SIN at 8 am and we had 16 hours transit at SIN before taking SQ231.
For SQ231, SIN-SYD, only 1 meal was served as it was a sleeper service. It was served as the morning breakfast.
The food themselves was presented and actually tasted quite OK. The 18 + 8 hours in Y hurts my bum very much, and took a couple of days to get over the jet lag.
The good news is that for our next SQ flights to/from Europe, we will be flying J all the way as I managed to book 4 * J Savers as soon as it was available.
