SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

Oh FFS



2 x 100% Chardonnay - FFS - what will the ‘grown-ups’ drink?

That’s it SQ - bye bye - QF F here I come

Edit: These decisions are made by the same ‘World Class Wine Experts’ who think ‘The Bogan’ is a fitting R/F Class offering - FFS

 

[cove]

Can they reverse that decision as we are flying home from the US late January…..

Oh FFS

You’ll love it on QF, particularly when they run out of champagne in F mid flight or completely forget to load it in LHR and the FA says no big deal we have plenty champagne in J (true stories, it happened).

And you think QF F has better wines?

We're all upset about this but let's not do anything rash @Cruiser Elite. Perhaps this might convince you to stay?

QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic award seats?

Son will remain a lowly SG and only make 1,000SCs this member year LTG would be a pretty sweet 18th birthday present!

SQ had no Krug NRT-LAX on 21st - lucky I was puffed from KRUG 228 MEL-SIN / 12 SIN-NRT

Oh it be coming - it be coming

I received an email a few days ago regarding SQ offering my family and I the opportunity to upgrade to business. To be honest I don't recall ever seeing one but I usually delete anyway.

The offer was for the flight on 08/Oct/2023. I wonder if I accepted the offer whether we could retrospectively sit in business ~6 weeks ago. LOL.

Nah it's ok, a feedback form will fix it

Our QF flight last year ran out of champagne before the meal service

That's just pathetic!

Singapore Airlines swaps Krug for Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires in First Class

Singapore Airlines has swapped out Krug Champagne for a well-rated vintage option from Charles Heidsieck, the 2007 Blanc des Millénaires, in its First Class and Suites cabins.

Krug GONE!

Sad day

Don’t worry everyone, it’s a temporary delay in supply. Krug will be back onboard very soon.

The Charles Heidsieck is very nice in the meantime, though I agree Blanc de Blanc isn’t my favourite either.

I have until Feb

Don't know if this is the correct place to post. Mods please move if not.

Just looking at flights to Europe next year and noticed that the points required ex PER for J are
saver 119,500 and advantage 133,500.
Why is it that flights to/from IST is cheaper in saver 81,500 and more expensive in advantage 144,000?

I was spoilt for choice where to ask this question whether on a UA, VA or SQ thread but figured this might be best given it relates to an SQ operated flight.

I just booked 2x reward seats on SQ HKT-SIN in whY using UA miles. I have zip status with UA now so I put my VA FF (Gold) details in during booking. As an aside, I was surprised it let me do that (I know SQ is PITA with FF details on reward bookings).

During the booking process, UA let me select seats (well forward in the whY cabin) although they didn’t stick but I was able to go into UA MMB and try again and they stuck (plus I now see the SQ PNR).

Questions:
1. Is free whY seat selection normal on SQ in this scenario?
2. Or maybe my VA status (possibly because the VA-UA & SQ hookup) let me through?
3. I’m probably going to drop to VA Silver before I fly, will that impact anything?

Either myself or SYD+1 might fire off the UA status match before hand (A*G) to get lounge access etc. That might seem a waste, but we’re unlikely to be “going for Gold” in anger with UA anyway. That strategy worked a treat on Copa (probably the last time I used some residual UA miles).

Why does SQ make it impossible to enter another *A / VA FF number on their website / app or is that just an issue with reward flights?

Since asking the question above back in March (I don’t recall seeing responses in amongst bottles of bubbles?), I gained UA *G and SYD+1 VA Gold (both via SM). UA won’t let me change my FF details from VA to UA but that seems academic since neither status seems to have come across to SQ . Certainly not showing on the OLCI BPs.

The SQ app lets me enter FF details from SQ or SQ or SQ (repeat)… I know they’ll do it at checkin, but frustrating.

At the moment our BPs say boarding Group 7! But at least I did manage to get two aisle seats in row 2.

Reward flights.

Only time I have managed to get my Velocity number into an award flight before check in was when I booked through Velocity.

No issue with revenue ...

What’s weird is that didn’t even come across from UA (entered my VA FF and later SYD+1 VFF - neither show up on SQ). My previous reward flights last year we SQ J via KF so no big deal but I was able to get my VA WP in the system at checkin (not that it
Matter).

I do recall not having issues on previous SQ revenue flights when I was travelling regularly
on SQ for work….

 

[SYD]

As expected, no drama getting my UA*G and VA SG FF# entered at airport. BPs now show Group 3 (up from Group 7 ). Plus Lounge invite!

What was impressive was SQ checked through our luggage to QF (seperate tix) AND were able to issue QF BPs. Quality time in SIN QF F / QR J lounges await our arrival!
