Back to the Big Apple with a few stops along the way

The last of NYC and then we headed off to EWR prior to the flight in the morning, we stayed at the Crown Plaza.

The morning carpark.

After checkin we caught the air train to the C terminal to use the United Polaris Lounge which is quite new and very good when compared to other US lounges. I only visited as I am not sure when I would be back if at all. Departing EWR is not something I do often.

We had to leave terminal C and go land side to terminal B via thee air train. Once airside the Virgin Atlantic lounge that SQ use.

The lounge staff at the BA lounge let me in for a look around and then just said you can stay if you like, it was a nice gesture however it was almost time to board. The BA lounge is better (IMO) that the Virgin lounge.

Time to get this show on the road.

Last couple of pages of the menu

This a long flight, I got some sleep and woke up over Istanbul (I think it was).

Second meal service and still 7 hours to go.

After 18 hours we are arriving at SIN and straight into the lounge which is not very busy at the moment. Next leg is home but not for a few more hours.

The plan was to complete the TR before getting home however the 18 hour flight knocked me around a bit. While in SIN I ventured over to QF F lounge and took a look at the SQ gold lounge which is a bit improvement on the old lounge.

Then it was time to come home.

left the AU mainland according to the tablet thingy, I have around 9.5 to go to reach DXB and I then get to do this again tomorrow.

In my opinion the sticky was the stand out maybe even better than this.

Did you only have 1 serve of caviar and were seconds proactively offered?
