SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

SYD-SIN-LHR on Oct 18th, coming back on Oct 26th. All in F.
Does anyone know when the new suites are flying?
And how can I tell if the 777's have the new F?
Thanks!
 
Can someone please advise about the pool at changi and how to use or access?
Its quite a complicated 12 point procedure - the average Sydneysider would probably have serious difficulty in comprehending this procedure so let me simplify it for you:
1. Walk to D gate end of T1
2. Access elevator up to ST hotel
3. Seek out large / impossible to miss 'Pool' signage
4. Push open door to access outdoor pool area
5. Approach young staff member behind bar or cleaning pool area
6. Say 'Please can I use the pool'?
7. Go to change room and slip into your togs
8. Return to pool and jump in
9. Swim for a bit then sit and have a coughtail at adjacent tables
10. After swim return to change room and slip back into civvies
11. Pay applicable fees on exit AND give those gorgeous kids there a couple $$s tip on way out
12. Return to TPR and plough into your French red and Lobster
Should you require further info pls feel free to ask. :lol: :lol: :lol:

CE as always you are a font of knowledge.

Should the above road map be best driven on Krug or Dom?
 
Have never been to that pool in T2. Often we get to Changi later in the evening so we just walk over to the Crowne Plaza with our hand luggage.
I will pass this important how to guide to my sons who are barely graduating from the T3 business class lounge into TPR by using Bank Of Mum and Dad's Kris Miles.
My sons were particularly impressed by Tiger beer being on tap in that business class lounge.

You forgot the most important of all.... DONT PACK YOUR TOGS INTO YOUR CHECKED LUGGAGE!!!

That pool is our Singapore Unicorn... simply unobtainable. We have the best intentions of getting there everytime, only to realise we've not packed togs into carry on, but checked luggage.

One day I'm going to swim in that pool.
 
There are obviously serious disadvantages to travelling F on day flights as we have never had a bed made up and subsequently no Teddies.

Just ask for the Teddies (and ask for the bed to be made up if you want to use it).
 
Sorry for typo - fat fingers on iPhone - fixed now - not only is pool in T1 but D gates are also.

Yes togs in carry on with zip lock bag is way to go.
 
We need to give CEs fingers more exercise.....fat fingers.....can fat fingers be fixed?
T1 for the pool or a love in over at the Crowne Plaza......tough call.
