    Singapore Air backing out of refunds?

    I received the below from SQ today as I immediately requested a refund through the online form when they first cancelled. Does this mean they’re no longer offering refunds? Who knows when they’ll want to travel again and I definitely don’t want to have to pay any fare difference.

    New York Airports at Christmas

    Anyone have first hand experience? I'm looking to leave from a New York airport on either Christmas Eve or Christmas. I know that all airports are normally swamped, but just wondering if it was worth the extra dough for a business class seat in order to get priority during this time. Or just...

    I was trying to claim some JAL flights online and it asks for the Check In Sequence number. I've scoured my boarding pass and I don't know where it is. There's heaps of numbers but nothing that specifically says "check in sequence." Any idea on where or what this is?
