Suites savers now available

[LadyC]

LHR, CDG, ZRH and FRA are the European cities. Not sure about Asia-US now as they have shuffled things around now they are flying the A350 to the USA.
Earlier this month I was trying to find a list and couldn't. Someone else may be a better detective than me though!

Thank you kindly! I'm also assuming that MEL and SYD is about it for AU? (All I saw out of BNE on a quick search was J).

Funny you post that. After reading Blackcat crowing about another suite booking (can cats crow?), I (face green with envy), went onto the KF site and was surprised how easily I found SYD-SIN-CDG-SIN-SYD. First time KF booker (well tyre-kicker rather than booker) and I couldn't believe how easy the process was! (I obviously spent far too long accepting the poor VA web booking torture).

I've easily got the points required so I'm wondering how one finds cities that the A380 fly (without the prolonged search)?

Wow you got lucky getting seats on your first search and for the dates you wanted I assume?

Thanks for the link. I didn't book them as I want to wait a bit longer but I was surprised (I was being flexible though) and it was 2 x suite saver returns with a SIN stopover in EU summer next year. Fees and taxes were AU$2235 which I didn't think was too bad given the bad rep SQ has with fees.

A quick Google search will do it.

I understand that A380 won't be running past October on the SIN-NRT-LAX route.

That SQ webpage is out of date - just flew 305/306 Sin-Lhr-Sin and both were A380.

Gday

With the introduction of the A350 this has meant that the A380 wont be going SIN- NRT after 21st October 2016. I believe that plane has been added into a SIN- LHR route.

Hi all,

I'll be calling KF shortly, but wanted to see if anyone knew the answer in case I confuse the agent.

I have confirmed J class flights (still waiting for the F to clear) on two separate bookings, one for myself and the other for my girlfriend. However, I just had another booking (with both of us) clear that are 'better' J class flights as they are on the same day as the F flights that I'm waiting to clear.

My question is whether it is possible for them to merge the two separate bookings or have them substitute the booking that just cleared into them? Not sure if that makes sense, I know previously that the team were able to merge different waitlist for me, but I'm not sure about the 2 vs 1 person conversions.

Not even sure if what I've written sounds coherent, but hopefully someone understands what I'm trying to say.

Note: couldn't get them merged unfortunately.

Mrs 29e and I are currently in TPR, having just hopped off what was virtually our own private jet from CDG. We were the only two people in Suites, so 2C and 2D were made up as a double bed, awake time was spent sampling nearly every wine on the list in 3C and 3D. Now about to board another Suites flight to MEL; given that Suites to MEL are a rarity these days this looks like it is turning into a good trip.

And a bit of an update to this; On our SIN-MEL leg we were also the only two passengers in Suites. Most unusual in my experience. I guess cove occasionally books the entire first class cabin but have many others had this happen all the way from Europe? It does make for flawless service.

The particular one I remember was coming home from the London Olympics in 2012 but it has happened more than once. We have had all 12 Suites taken as well but often I get to use two. We prefer the window Suites rather than the double bed C and D.

But surely C&D has to be experienced just once.......to gain "club" membership in comfort!

We aren't trying out for the Olympics swanning_it.

I'm no athlete, but I intend to be trying out for the marathon!

(hope they carry a defib....I just may need it!)

Trying to book SYD-LHR and it seems the only Suite Saver seats are found on itineraries involving an overnight stop in Singapore.

In contrast SYD-CDG and SYD-ZRH have plenty of seats on all flights across virtually any date we searched.

There's plenty of availability between SYD and SIN; the culprit appears to be SQ322 the 2345 departure to LHR that never seems to have any award space - it shows 'not available' online but I managed to join the waitlist on the phone.

Has anyone managed to successfully clear a waitlist on SQ322 in Suites Saver recently? Otherwise we may just look at an overnight coughtail crawl at either Keong Saik Road or the Merais which is actually starting to sound more appealing than flying straight through if annual leave wasn't an issue. #hardlife

I've been the only passenger in suites a couple of times. I felt a bit weird the first time but in Suites you barely notice the other pax anyway. You are right, though - Flawless and hyper-attentive service.

Hi, I am trying to book SYD-SIN for 15 or 16 September but both dates are waitlisted in F saver. I have waitlisted SQ232 for a nice suites experience. There are currently two pax booked. Do you think the waitlist might clear? Any advice appreciated.

This was also my experience when we booked almost a year ago (we fly out in a few weeks). I could not find any connecting options so in the end we paid the $100 and will be spending a couple of days in Singapore. On the plus side it will be fun to experience the first class checkin and get to visit the TPR and extra time.

Went to London on A380 Late May and that was the best service I've ever received on the plane. We boarded on time but the flight departed 2 hours late. I didn't realize it was 2 hours until I finished a whole bottle of Krug myself (9am flight).

We couldn't decide what red wine to have with our meals. Told the FA we didn't drink much during meals but he came back with 2 bottles opened.

There were 4 passengers in the cabin including us so I got a double bed. A bit disappointed though since I couldn't really sleep in the middle as it was still quite hard. Basically just used one side of the bed. Not sure if there is any trick.

Looking forward to suites again next year.
