Only 9 pax on a 27 seater coach.

Seat 7 A Luxury Coach Services (coach company name) on the way to Malacca. It is actually pretty comfortable . A couple of more stops for pickups before we cross into Malaysia.

Maxwell Markets Singapore. Tandoori Set S$11. It was very nice and the bread was straight out of the tandoor onto my plate.

Singapore - sorry

Maybe we have just been unlucky.

Veerasamey Rd Little India. My wife's mother lived here from around the mid 1930's to the late 1940's. Her family was not interned by the Japanese as they were 'locals'. This building was built in1924. It appears to be being renovated but it has been in a similar state for a decade.

Muthus on Racecourse Rd Little India. I used my fingers to eat off the banana leaf

You definitely need cash to eat at most of the places we have used in Singapore. Those that have card payment mostly only accept the local NETS card. One did take MasterCard but there would have been a surcharge bigger than in Oz.

In 1976 we had some Travellers Checks stolen when we staying at someones house. The police had arrested and charged the miscreant before we even knew they were missing. His attempts to forge my signature was risible. Replacement ones were issued immediately.

Satay at the Bay - Singapore. S$20 for20 sticks and 2 ketupat

Well it is QF describing it and after the way they describe the wilted leaves you get in J what would you expect?

I doubt many people ever flew on the VFW. Your record is still extremely impressive.

You have amassed a pretty impressive number of plane types.I have never flown on a VC10 but I think that I would be one of the few on here to have walked closely around Super VC10's parked on the airport apron. And the sound of those 4 Conway jet engines screaming and crackling on take off from...

QF71 Per to Sin. The economy meals are about the same as ScootPlus ones. You do get an ice-cream however. Described as Beef Bacon Burgundy. Meat was tender and the mash had no lumps. Tasted fine for what it was. Chicken Kung Pao.My wife said it was nice.

Zam Zam In Kampong Glam Singapore - about 250 metres from our hotel. Mutton Biryani & Chicken Murtabak. With a Lime Juice and a Bandung S$27.

I am also seeing a similar odd view for the first time in a few flights. QF71 Per/Sin 41K and J

Interesting review Matt. I don't think that these short haul meals on Finnair have changed that much. It seems to be of a similar level to what we got flying from Dublin to Helsinki in 2017. There was no warm cinnamon scroll on our flight.

Thanks to both of you I was doing something silly. That should have been obvious. I have never been affected by this sort of thing before but have read plenty of queries from others with similar sorts of questions. A hotel near/at the airport for the night using the lower fare to cover the 16...

This is Scoots explanation as to why that aircraft was called Barry. Supposedly public suggestion. https://www.yahoo.com/news/scoots-first-two-aircraft-now-044400831.html

I am trying to avoid the 'Australia tax' by flying to Singapore on ScootPlus and then booking a J flight to Paris using Etihad. For example using sample dates of departing Singapore on 7/5/25 and returning from Paris on 5/6/25 I can get a fare of $8,986 SGD for two people in J. The Etihad site...
