So, I was lucky enough to land an upgrade to SQ Suites class, and thought that justified taking some photos of the food/service, and the seat, to document what is definitely a special occasion for me.
I was headed to Singapore for a day for work, with a side trip tacked on at the tail end to check out the temples of Angkor Wat, Siem Reap and Cambodia over Easter.
A few days before my trip to Singapore I was contacted about a special offer to upgrade to Suites class on the Singapore A380. I hesitated for about 5 minutes before jumping at the chance, and am definitely glad I did!
Below is a recount of my trip. (edit: PS, images are clickable for full size)
SYD-SIN SQ232 (9V-SKL)
The big bird (at Changi on arrival):

Priority boarding working no problems at SIN (though F pax were called pretty late in the game, I got to the gate when the last of Y was boarding), I didn’t experience any of the “greeted by name” service that I have read other Suites passengers reported. Not that I think that’s a problem, just a data point.
I received a very warm greeting on board and was shown to my Suite (3A). Suites had 7/12 seats taken, I was the last seat to be ticketed (having checked earlier) so it seems that perhaps only 1 of the special upgrades were afforded. Lucky me!
On boarding I was happy to see the dark leather seats, which according to Lucky indicates this was a recently refreshed bird. Score!
SQ A380 Suite 3A

The suite itself is very large, definitely roomy, spacious, and elegant. Not at all over the top.
I was immediately offered a welcome drink (2006 Dom or Krug); I hadn’t tried Krug before, so I started with that.

Amenity kits, slippers, blanket and PJs were brought around promptly, as was a selection of magazines and newspapers. Unfortunately I had some work I needed to tackle, so I was going to have to use all my reading time doing work (boo). But oh well.
Krug in hand (delicious by the way), I checked out the menu while the final phases of boarding completed. There were two couples in 2C/D and 3C/D. Pax in 3C/D seemed to be friends of ground/technical crew, who spent about 5 minutes on board chatting with them.

Menu & wine list

Justine (green dress) and Cheryl (red dress) were my go-to flight attendants during the trip, and both of them were excellent. It’s clear from the service I received that Singapore Airlines treat their F passengers with all possible due attention and care to make their trip pleasant and special. No sooner had I gotten to the lower third of my champagne before I was offered more. And who was going to say no to that?
