Less than Good experience on SQ out of Dubai

I was on an SQ flight ex LHR over the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea, where turbulence can be quite servere and unpredictable. After around 75 mins of moderate to heavy bumps, I really needed the bathroom. I got to the J toilets, the crew listened to my plea, told me to be very careful but did not either stop me or order me back to my seat. The seatbelt sign went off soon after so I beat the rush. My advice is to use common sense and ask if necessary.
There's always the Gérard Depardieu option as a last resort! :)
 
Pre COVID, I was near the front of a American Ailines RJ, PTY-MIA. During the flight I had noticed an older guy visit the WC maybe half a dozen times. After landing we had a 15 minute or so taxi made longer by the same guy getting up and heading to the loo, despite forceful instructions to sit down.

The plane pulled over into a taxi siding and an apologetic PA came from the coughpit. We waited for the guy to come out and sit down before proceeding to the gate.

@Peanutbladder by any chance?
 
I'm sitting in SQ 621 right now.
Flight has been smooth other than a few mins above Kagoshima.
Took them 2hours to serve the satay and set the table and we just received the entrée as I'm typing....

Yeah I'm glad I didn't book SQ for my October trip to London!

Gosh. It's just a six hour flight as well! Bit rubbish. Hope the drinks are flowing if you want them...have a good one.

Perhaps a blended course might be more appropriate to save time…

I wouldn’t rule out SIA for LHR. Perhaps 6 hours in you’ll be on your first dish 😜
