SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

I booked 4 premium economy tickets PVG - SIN - SYD during april end of school holidays, SQ has just emailed that the PVG-SIN leg no longer has Premium economy. Has anyone managed to pay more pts and upgrade to business class?
 
Yep that’s the current state of play - pre Covid 4 flts per day to / fro PVG - pre Covid 4 flts per day to / fro PEK - now 1 flt per day each - this is the current world in which we live - will that change short term? Hopefully 👍

I asked SQ HQ about this again last week. No time soon is what I've again been told. I understand there is geopolitical hesitance in both countries.

Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?

Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.

Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

I checked in at the counter (J/F I can’t remember which) for 208 last month. But Y was using kiosks (not that many people queuing but I got there about 75-80 mins before departure).
 
SQ website seems to be giving me some grief lately, next trip takes us to the USA and for whatever reason it won't save our APIS details. I am guessing this is because it's part of a multi-city booking and the system is set up to save for more straightforward one-way/return trips. Would prefer to sort it out ahead of time but might just have to allow more time at check-in.

Separately the website simply refuses to retain my wife's VA number on the booking (not a redemption), one screen even seems to suggest I need to create a KF account for her and link partner earn that way? Another activity to sort out at check in I guess.

There was some discussion recently about the BTC menu from departing ports.
Turns out, they have the BTC options on the website:

SYD has Lobster Thermidor.

MEL does not!
Was this a post-covid change? I haven't flown F/R ex-MEL before, only other ports and the Lobster has always been available from memory.

Yes "covid" - Same as being unable to book the cook for kids meals due to "covid"

It is actually quite annoying that they got rid of Yummy, I really don't know what to expect now when I book my kids Child Meal in J. Maybe I will get my 10yo son with adult BTC?

I always BTC for my son, 9yo. Usually it's a steak. So long as no spices etc on it, he is happy to eat it and then easier to negotiate on the desserts etc. YMMV.
