About Singapore Airlines (from Wikipedia):
Singapore Airlines (abbreviation: SIA or SQ) is the flag carrier of the Republic of Singapore with its hub located at Singapore Changi Airport, and a member of the Star Alliance. The airline is notable for highlighting the Singapore Girl as its central figure in the corporate branding segment. Widely renowned as one of the best carriers, the airline is ranked as a 5-star airline by Skytrax, and it has also been ranked as the world's best airline five times. The airline operates a variety of Boeing and Airbus aircraft, including the A350, 787, 777, A380, and 737. Singapore Airlines Group has more than 20 subsidiaries, including numerous airline-related subsidiaries. SIA Engineering Company handles maintenance, repair, and overall (MRO) business across nine countries with a portfolio of 27 joint ventures including with Boeing and Rolls-Royce. Singapore Airlines Cargo operates SIA's freighter fleet and manages the cargo-hold capacity in SIA's passenger aircraft. Scoot, a wholly-owned subsidiary, operates as a low-cost carrier. Singapore Airlines was the first to put the Airbus A380-the world's largest passenger aircraft-as well as the Boeing 787-10 into service and is the only operator of the ultra-long-range (ULR) version of the Airbus A350-900. It ranks amongst the top 15 carriers worldwide in terms of revenue passenger kilometers and is ranked tenth in the world for international passengers carried.

In 2023, the airline for the fifth time took the prize of "Best Airline" as well as the "Best First Class Airline" by Skytrax.
About Boeing 777-300ER (from Wikipedia):
The Boeing 777, commonly referred to as the Triple Seven, is an American long-range wide-body airliner developed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. The 777 is the world's largest twinjet and the most-built wide-body airliner. The jetliner was designed to bridge the gap between Boeing's other wide-body airplanes, the twin-engined 767 and quad-engined 747, and to replace aging DC-10s and L-1011 trijets. Developed in consultation with eight major airlines, the 777 program was launched in October 1990, with an order from United Airlines. The 777-300ER ("ER" for Extended Range) is the B-market version of the -300. Its higher MTOW and increased fuel capacity permits a maximum range of 7,370 nautical miles (13,650 km; 8,480 mi) with 396 passengers in a two-class seating arrangement. The 777-300ER features raked and extended wingtips, a strengthened fuselage and wings, and a modified main landing gear. Its wings have an aspect ratio of 9.0. It is powered by the GE90-115B turbofan, the world's most powerful jet engine.

Hi Dan can you give me the name of your second vlogging channel? I'd love to see more videos 👌👌
Actually SQ does have an exclusive first class check-in area at Terminal 3. It's all the way on the left side of the terminal and it has a separate entrance just for your info the next time you do fly suites/first class on SQ out of Singapore Dan
Yes he messed up checkin. Totally missed out on the Private First Class checkin.
Tell the taxi driver and they will take you right to the door. Porter service for your bags and whisked right through with a concierge
Was just going to comment this. His fault here.
There is also a new first class area in T2. Just finished renovating
Yep can confirm this
OMG Dan, the check in area for first class passengers in T3 is so exclusive. even has its own immigration clearance. sad that you missed it :(
How could you miss the SQ First Class check in!? It's superb with porters for luggage, seated check in and incredibly quick immigration and security process that pops you out directly opposite the lounge
16:02 is absolutely accurate and consistent. If you are traveling first class they will be waiting by the plane's doorway and greet you by NAME as you approach without referring to your boarding pass.
SQ is the pride of Singapore. We are glad you enjoyed your flt, Dan.
Have travelled Singapore Business Class about 4 times from Melbourne to London and they do have the BEST customer service out of all the airlines I have flown. They ALWAYS refer to you by name and you never have to ask for anything. The staff will always check to make sure you are happy and if you need anything. Plus the wide seats are the BEST!
So spot on asking Singaporeans not to take Changi airport and SQ for granted. Even given all the options as Changi airport is a major aviation hub in the region served by major airlines, my default is always SQ. Great review as always.
Perhaps Dan can do another review next time on the singapore airlines exclusive check-in lounge for first / suite class at changi airport terminal 3. Since he’s totally unaware of it’s existence this time round.
This is helpful and making me excited. 😍 Thank you so much, Dan! ❤
Back in 2016 I flew first class on a 777 from Singapore to Manchester (via Munich). My connecting flight from Sydney was the A380 (with the old SQ First Class suites) so I was able to compare.
When I boarded the 777 I thought it would be a much lower experience due to the smaller open first class seats (then there were two rows of first class) and in reality I wondered what the difference might be with their Business Class seats.
Whilst the seats aren’t as private, but still soon realised that the space was much more than their Business Class seats.
The great thing of travelling SQ is the services from the flight crew.
The best example for me when we were on the ground in Munich. Passengers continuing to Manchester were not allowed to deplane and could observe the cleaners and reloading food. They also changed crew.
Once the new crew in First Class had settled in (still on the ground), there were only 2 of us in First Class, the senior flight in First came and introduced herself, and immediately said that she had seen that I prefer xxx Champagne could not be provided on the ground and they could only provide xxx Champagne, or would I like my early grey tea, black with honey whilst wet are waiting on the ground.
Because the flight wasn’t full, (ex Singapore) the Flight Attendant offered to set up the bed on the seat on the opposite side of the isle, which was excellent so there was much less hassle moving between being awake and sleeping or just laying down.
As Dan mentioned the service was amazing and they couldn’t do enough for me. And on my flight, just as Dan, when I went to the toilet they held the curtain open and the other FA opened the toilet door for me.
The only downside for me was my meals. I am gluten free, which means you don’t get any choices and for the flight over and back (and a few other First Class flights I have had) it is basically the same meal with very little rotation (even for the mains). Their other weakness in this area is for other passengers there is a wide variety of breads for meals and the opportunity for more. For GF passengers there is only one bread item per meal, which is don’t think is appropriate. I really wish SQ has an order your meals for GF passengers so that we can get food we are more likely to like and create variety. Finally in this area, the GF Desserts aren’t that great, and simple things like for the cheese selection they don’t add rice crackers on the plane, to cheese is without anything (as there is no more GF break and no GF crackers)
My view is SQ is they are amazing in service and have some great seats (even in the 777 First Class seats aren’t to the standard of the A380). However their major weakness is in the area of gluten free meals, and given meal are a great part of the First Class experience this is where they are a let down.
Did you depart from Terminal 3, Dan? There is a dedicated First Class check-in facility with its own driveway as you approach the airport. A car-to-lounge service - it's like arriving at a hotel with its port-cochere and landscaped driveway, porter service, a dedicated passenger relations officer (who greets you at your car and will check you in), and a dedicated fast track channel from the facility through immigration and security directly to the departure area close to the lounges.
SQ12 departs out of T3. so unless it was an exception, he should have departed from T3 and if he was travelling by car to the airport departure drop off he missed the huge "FIRST CLASS CHECK IN" sign and private dropoff before all the numbered regular counters
-edit after watching the video again: yes the terminal and departure hall shown is T3. so he missed it. although the check in counter could have told him about the private check in next time for future reference: but dan didnt ask about it either
This is the type of service all airlines should be striving for.!
DAN - YOUR THE MAN! Thanx for a comprehensive Vid!
Thanks for reminding me just how much i miss SQ since i tried to economize over the last couple of years 😬 That said, Qatar Qsuites are great and after one of your video recommendations about Finnair Business Class, I opted for a Qatar return flight that included one leg of the journey on Finnair, so I got to enjoy their rather unique seats, which is wonderfully comfortable for a long haul flight. It’s just a shame that SQ’s Book The Cook still hasn’t been improved upon by any other airline, after all this time 👌
Great video dan!
Amazing vlog again! I loved the seat plan visuals and edit. My only ask, make the menus WAY bigger on the screen/ more zoomed in. On my 55 inch tv I could barely read any of it. I love a menu!!! Great channel!
Great video as always. I flew on this exact product in 1A back in August from Frankfurt to JFK. They unfortunately took the A380 off that route when I flew it. This was my first time flying first class and it was the best flight of my life. All of the crew were amazing. Frankfurt’s catering could use a little improvement but overall decent. I can’t even imagine what the A380’s Suites are like.
Dan, this video was my push to use my points for a first class flight (also in the 777-300er). Seize the day, I now get to spend 11 months looking forward to it!
Flying SIN > JFK roundtrip in J in a few months and boy this video got me excited. Glad you had such a good experience Dan and thank you for sharing it with us.
Btw dan there's a private first-class terminal only for T3 passengers . There are sofas and its super exclusive just have to look in the right place
I LOVE that UA-cam scrolls the comments as you’re watching now- what a awesome update!
Great video! You sitting, knees open taking FULL advantage of the space had me laughing!
Thank you for taking the time to share!
I was looking for a UA-camr that does reviews of airlines and I finally found one and a good one
My first time flying SQ was when I was 14 yrs old (ages ago) ... even then their service was top notch. Glad to see their standards are just as steadfast as 20 yrs ago. Best part of boarding an SQ flight was the scent inside the aircraft, always just a light fragrance that I will always remember. I can never fault SQ crew service. If the service on-board is amazing beyond compare it is because the airline takes crew training so seriously.
i flew it on my first time when i was 10 from sg to india and it was so spectacular that i flew another 3 more times when i was 11
Another excellent review Dan! Bravo 🎉❤
We booked the entire cabin for our SIN-NRT-LAX family trip this coming March . Very excited
Dan you missed the Nap Room in the Private Room + the private first class check in and security. All of these make the ground experience feel like a 5 Star hotel 😊
SQ crew are amazing & so consistent. Great video Dan
Great review, Dan! Changi Airport has a separate First Class Check-in reception which is super private. I was the only passenger who was checking in when I was flying SQ A380 Suites Class earlier this month 😊 It was the best flight experience I’ve ever had!
Love Singapore Airlines 🫶🏻
You nailed all the pronunciations of the Singapore food!
I have been to SIN twice in pre-pandemic and the airport is just an engineering marvel with exceptional retail offerings. I wish I can aboard the SQ premium class in the future.
Fantastic content as always.
Singapore airlines are the best by a country mile! ❤
Here I am watching another amazing video from Dan but of course vicariously…. Most of us will never fly this class, but a dangling carrot is always nice. Still, love your work, Dan!
I once thought the same. However even in Australia there are great credit card sign up points available that has allowed me to fly either business or first class ever year for the last 7 years. You just need to work the system and find the flights with reward seats available.
I haven't flown F yet but I never imagined that I would ever even fly business class. But with points I just went to and from Europe in business class. I flew Singapore from Frankfurt to JFK and it was so so nice. So comfortable and I slept so good.
I flew SQ12 2 weeks ago in economy, they just do everything so well. One little Easter egg from the video though, at 13:04 when he shows the amenity kit, the cologne shown was being worn by the male flight crew on the flight (i'm a bit of a fragrance collector). Must be a perk of the job.
Proud to be a Singaporean. ☺️🫶
4:29 “waffles optional”??!! I love that the ice cream comes with waffles. But I have to say, in my world, the waffles are never optional! That dessert sounds amazing, especially with the waffles!
Spot on, SQ FTW always. I hope you also show the true colors of Qatar Airways as they have been quite the opposite in all my recent J flights.
i tried this first-class twice, i really enjoyed their services and the catering. of coz, the Royal Sparkle
LOL'd at the jump scare 🤣🤣
It’s a hardship tour.😎 Can’t wait to watch the full report.
Nice Nonstop Dan, that looked cool and lovely, I liked this video yes!!!!👍😅
I flew sq12 this year from SIN-LAX VIA NRT and it was probably the best flight I ever took
Gosh I remember when CX business class used to make the bed for you. Now you are lucky if they even address you by name. The good old days
I think the 777 Tokyo flight is being replaced by the A380 next week as they reintroduce the big bus to more routes
You also gotta try Al Nippon Airways first class. A friend of mine flew it recently and from what he shared with me, it's pretty awesome.
I will be on this flight in Jan, looking forward to it 😊
Hi Dan, it would be nice to see airport hotel reviews along with your airline reviews. Just a quick mention, not a long thing.
Looking very nice flying.
I love Singapore 🇸🇬 ❤
I love that you kept in the messing up the first destination
Hi @Nonstoo Dan. I am a big fan of your videos . Any recommendations for getting upgrades on international flights , how to get travel miles ?
You pronounced Ngoh Hiang perfectly!!
Not a big fan of walnuts. But when I first took a bite at the caramelised walnut, I instantly loved it!
Check out their First check in terminal next time 😊
YEAHHHH SINGAPORE!!!
veagan is crazy bc that waygu burger looked delicious.
And imma proud Singaporean 🇸🇬 ❤❤😊😊
I am sure there is a suites/first class private check-in and immigration gate at T3, it's at the very beginning of the departure drop-off area.
I remember SQ does offer a private check in area for first class. Its on the far left of T3. When you arrive by car theres a special entrance.
yup you're right. if you're not heading there by car, can walk there as well. also far left of the terminal :)
It is a Singapore cutom to always prepare extra food for guests
This airline truly is the top. Service is fantastic, food is great (even in economy) the staff checked and cleaned the bathroom super frequently and to top it off you will almost certainly use changi airport which is sublime
LOL.... hearing here that you had to "bite the bullet" to pay 500$ for a 2hr flight on business class. I am German and I have to fly Hamburg Munich regularly with Craphansa... They charge 500 € for a one way ticket in Economy...
That’s because you are buying one-way tickets 🤣
Doesn't Eurowings offer those routes. They are way more affordable than Lufthansa.
?? Im a LH Senator, I fly Muc-Ham a lot and I have never paid 500€ one way for economy. Business class fares HH-Muc-HH are usually 300-400€… Return tickets in Eco used to be 100€ before covid and now they are 120-160 depending on the date& time of the flight.. If you do one/two legs on EW it’s even cheaper but ofc then you can’t go to the LH lounge in Muc (because EW is in T1)
Craphansa 😂
Craphansa 😝😝😝
You got me at "chop chop curry pok". Wonderful video, as always.
At this point I just feel like he’s going to places he wants and going on airlines he already knows r gonna be good for his enjoyment
I scored two award tickets for SQ11 first class LAX to NRT on this plane. Very excited to try it, although it isn't the suite I still expect to be blown away.
Have the best time!
thank you for reminding me as a Singaporean how proud I should be of our national airline =)
Great review and so good to see SIA are as good as ever.
When you got to NRT, did you take the Keisei Skyliner?
Great video. And I'd skip sleeping on that flight too.
how do you fund the flights in your videos
One day. One day. One day. Oh please, one day. Bucket list!
Do you get to keep the headphones?
I miss sg lah spent 10 years there now local angmoh, Sq is the best airline in the whole world
SQ flights out of SG has the best catering indeed
I manifesting that all the glitz in this video is happening to my life in 2024.
I flew LHR>SIN in this seat back in March and its still my all time favorite first class seat. I liked it better than the suites even.
love the seat! its so wide and has loads of storage space (for me, space under the bed legrest for my duty free sake alcohol bought in NRT japan). i feel so small in the seat 😂. even the SQ business class seats are tall and wide
First of all thank you for taking us with ya on this flight. Always love to see a good review.
So the takeaway to me is, that the offered service is still the major factor to creating a true difference. Not the hard product as seat and cabin looks. It must be a load of training for a crew to consistenty offer this spotless service with all the little touches that an average passenger would barely notice (e.g. curtain opening & meal presentation).
Your bleu polo shirt looks so confortable? What brand? Great video!
You just know when you see a video from Dan it will be of a superior quality to most others!! Awesome again.
Just flew from JFK to Manila on Turkish and man do I miss SQ service, even in business class its the best.
gosh what a dream 🥰
15:05 SOUUPPP!! 👽
i feel like such a peasant watching this channel lmao. dan doesn’t even wanna check in near us 😩
Dan - the exclusive 1st class check in is before T3. You need to let your driver knows to drop you off there. BTW I met you on this flight from SIN - NRT.
Dan, there is a private check in terminal for SQ with a private immigration section. FYI.
Singapore Airlines might just be my favorite airline, even though I've never been on them before. XD
Holy Macaroni! 40 mins from push back to take off? WOW!
I’ve flown last year First From LHR to SIN was actually more impressed with service than in Suites 1/4 is always going to be Taylor made great service never a delay and surprisingly private. Looking forward to a Syd-LHR in Aug Return first so enjoy this all again
The 777 is always a nightmare compared to the A380, the 777 is way too loud.
As a Singaporean, I have not taken a flight with Singapore Airlines :( but this video made me experience it XD
There is a dedicated first class check in lounge at Changi and they have their own passport control. The private room makes up for anything...omg u didn't nap in their private rooms?
Cool Vlog ! You always smile so much. 19:38
Thanks for this great video mate😊, and would love if you could add a note in your video and correct the critical error and not mislead others to think that there isn’t when actually there is indeed a dedicated check in lounge for First Class SQ passengers at Terminal 3, with porter and check in desk and dedicated access to immigration. Appreciate it!
Its Singapore Airlines first class, I would be surprised if the service level is anything less than stellar and top notch.
I have tried soooo many times to book SQ with airmiles and its so hard - and that's just in Economy!
Looks superb 👌
New here, so look forward to your next video.
There is a separate area for first class check-in with expedited immigration clearance
Good to see SQs premium class service is still top notch 👍 Flew with them over summer in both business and economy, although I noticed significant drops in the quality of service they offer in economy now. I really hope I just got unlucky with the crew and catering, as the other business flight was great!
i did enjoyed this flight so much.. oh wait.. i meant i enjoyed watching this video of this flight... haha.. i can only dream
great to see a fellow veggie up there! ❤
@NonstopDan where do you get those seat maps? Is there any special place to find it or you make your own artwork ? Is just amazing...
Thank you! Made by me, and honestly one of my favorite parts of making a video😂🙌
@@NonstopDan Hard work and amazing. Congrats! Seatguru should learn from you... haha
