SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

Looking for some advice on booking SQ to Europe in May 2025. Being based in Adelaide theres no First class from Adl to Sin, so if i try to book online First only mixed class seems available, and the price is not much less than full First from either Syd or Mel.
But if i try to book a connecting flight (eg Adl-Syd) as part of the same ticket, the online booking takes the class of the flight from the first sector, and limits it to business only.
Is there a way to get a connecting flight in the same PNR? Or other suggestions?

You need to book separate domestic flight from ADL to MEL/SYD if you want to fly F. I’m in a similar situation living in BNE :)

Recently booked Hobart to LHR for late May 25 in F and at first had the same issue of J Dom legs determining the subsequent Intl class. Ended up phoning SQ and booking that way. Suggest you do the same? Interesting that we are going out with VA but return Dom leg Syd/Hob is with QF. You might find it difficult getting adjoining seats tho - somebody had already bagged 1D and F on our preferred 777 flts.
