Hmmm, was debating whether to BTC next Mon SIN DXB F or go with the flow with what is offered, but after Pushka's pic think I might be choosing the Confit of Duck from BTC.

I had the Confit of Duck out of CDG recently in suites
Was delicious

Just flew SQ J Rome to Singapore. Was clearly expecting too much. While service was quick, no amenities kit - slippers, mask and socks in three separate bags. Flat bed was good but the usual seat had very limited foot rest incline (30 degrees or so) and poor back recline.
Meal service was prompt - promising satay starter but downhill thereafter. The main meal of lamb was inedible, slimy even, smelt bad with hard potatoes. I was actually waiting for people to start feeling unwell on this 12 hour flight.
What has happened with SQ? No longer the benchmark or maybe Rome is a poor leg?
Thanks. My schedule is kinda tight but I am aware of being flexible to cater for award availability.
I know all about married segments and whatnot, but just searching the whole FRA-xSIN-SYD itinerary comes up at "waitlist", however when I search the FRA-SIN and SIN-SYD legs individually, the FRA-SIN is waitlist and SIN-SYD is available (at saver level). I went to EF and the FRA-SIN is R4 F4 A4. The seatmap shows one seat allocated, 3F, FWIW.
My potential problem is, if the FRA-SIN waitlist does not come through (I know there are no guarantees), what happens to the SIN-SYD leg? Assuming I waitlist today - will the SIN-SYD leg be confirmed? Even if so, if I can't get the FRA-SIN leg, then will they just refund the entire ticket?
The other spanner in the works is that I'll probably need to book a DBV-FRA connection on OU (Croatia Airlines) on the same ticket.. the 15% discount I'm not too bothered with, so it looks like I'll have to book via the call centre.
you're looking at a leg of probably the toughest redemption on SQ - JFK-FRA-SIN. to me, it appears to be like trying to get SYD-LAX on QF F - the holy grail of FF redemptions.
You would have a better than even chance to have a refund without any cancellation fee.
Happened to me once, but I can't say there is a rule somewhere so caveat emptor applies.
Thanks, so what actually happened to you? The first segment of your waitlisted multi segment ticket did not clear and you got a full refund? What was the routing?
I could do this, will probably use WP benefits to request a QF2 or similar F award to hedge my bets...
Totally forgot about the JFK-FRA leg
My confirmed SYD SIN FRA was (schedule) changed by SQ to become waitlisted SYD SIN and confirmed SIN FRA.
The waitlisting never cleared despite emails & phone calls (and some "revenue" threat). In the end, I gave up and used my CX revenue ticket instead.
SQ refunded everything - with apologies & no fee.
Slightly different from waitlisting from day one, I know but ... it's possible.
The downside is without waitlisting, one would have zero chance. The cancellation fee is minimal in any case.
Wow. I'm surprised you didn't receive any more recompense!
I'm looking at 10-11 months out for my dates.
With your booking, how do you know if each leg is waitlisted or confirmed? Does it just tell you when you log in to MMB (I've never flown SQ before so I have no idea how their system works)?
