Hey Catsville I am heading thru SIN Oct 25 if it helps?

If you wouldn't mind seeing if they have one? Will reimburse of course.

Will reimburse of course.

Of course - plus obligatory expensive international freight rates, exorbitant insurance costs etc - happy to help

I’m flying SQ SGN-SIN tomorrow but I don’t profess to know what that toy even looks like so I’m pretty much useless

It's back in stock, would either of you be willing to order and collect on board for me, pretty please? Postage is an ouchy $40.

Happy to help if I can. Do you have a link to the Kris Shop that has stock, when I look it up it shows as out of stock.

It's gone out of stock again I had a notification earlier today that it was back in stock, must be popular.

Seems to be out of stock for travellers as well, I am on currently on SQ21 and attempted to order it for you for collection later this evening SIN-ADL. It is showing as out of stock. I will asked on the flight if they have any.

@blackcat20 I am out of luck to help you out, in SIN I could see the item was available but when adding it to the flight the site informed me it could not be added. After asking the lounge staff about this I was informed not all items can be added up to 1 hour in advance (my query was 5 hours in advance.

They also have one in the lounge but was not available for sale.

First time back at T2 and what an absolute debacle. The taxi driver initially refused to believe T2 was back open for departures and said he hadn’t been back there yet but once I showed him the SQ app listing the terminal number he came to his senses. J check in took over 1hr with 1x F counter and 3x J counter. Eventually they opened another 3x J counters otherwise we would still be there now.
Construction still ongoing and probably a 5-10 minute walk to the SilverKris lounge. Lounge was an absolute zoo with no spare seats and people just standing around in the corridor’s. Gold lounge isn’t completed yet so all eligible passengers sent to SilverKris lounge but as we were entering I heard the staff say to the group in front of us that they were about to start restricting entrance until some flights departed.
Food was very good but line up of about 20 for coffee so gave it a miss. Boarding at gate F58 which is about 15 minutes away so going to head off soon

hey folks, i sort of have an answer in my mind, however, a couple of years ago, i managed to book a few long haul flights with 1-2 months notice, and back at that time I noticed that some flights as early as the following week seemed availbe via miles redemption which was shocking.

so if i was to look at a one way flight from melb to CDG from now to end of january, having a look now evyerhting is waitlisted, are my chances of any of these waitlistings to clear, a virtual zero??

My experience, as others here, it's a bit hit and miss. Either it clears within a few days or not at all. I waitlisted a one-way to MXP in May, I think, for travel last August and it cleared in a few days. However the dozen flights back in September did not clear, so my back-up plan was to travel in Y (only available confirmed flight ). Have already booked 2023 flights.

Odd... I did see that when I searched for MXP as a departure point. Something weird going on there for sure. Well, for now i'm going to book from AMS as flights are available from there. Little bit more stuffing around but if it means I can lock a ticket in...

Hey Zerogravitas. I waitlisted 3 flights end September and one cleared within a few days, so was able to secure a flight in J. If you have not already booked AMS try and see availability for BCN as per your original plan. Cheers.
