Overnight Layover in Singapore: Where to
Stay
Most
people prefer flights with
short connections, but
sometimes a long transit is
necessary. One member will
soon have an overnight
layover at Singapore
Airport, with their inbound
flight from Melbourne

departing at 8am the

night at Singapore's
Changi Airport? Going to have
an 8 hour stopover in Singapore
arriving at 12:05am via SQ208 and
leaving at 8:05am via SQ600, any
good place to rest in the Airport
beside the transit hotels?more
First Trip to Indochina
Our
member yld200
recently returned from a
wonderful holiday to Vietnam
and Thailand. Not only was
it their first time
visiting, but they flew
there in the luxury of First
class Suites on Singapore
Airlines - another first for
this member. In spite of a
faulty seat, the Singapore
Airlines Suites experience
did not disappoint! Even
before our member had
boarded
the
plane, they were offered a personal
escort from the lounge. After
walking out of the lounge one of
the staff ran after us and advised
that she would escort us onto the
flight which was nice.more
