Just a rant, as I am tired of wasting time every time to claim miles for a ridiculous reason.
It feels less like a loyalty program and more like a test of patience.

Last time, they wrongly credited my Miles to another account, and I still had to send 3 or 4 emails with more info requested each time to correct their mistake. Then the standard answer,"oh it might take up to 8 weeks to credit it to your account".

Really, 4 emails and eight weeks… to fix an error you made?

End of March, I just needed a few hundred miles to maintain my Gold status.
Now, with the delay created by SQ, I need 8 thousand.

It seems they make the process as troublesome as possible to prevent people from claiming their miles.

Has anyone else run into this kind of thing, or is this just exceptionally bad luck?

Hello, for couples when you’re travelling biz class, do yall choose two middle seats so that you can be tgt or do yall choose one window and one middle but you’ll be separated by an aisle.
I like the window seats but at the same time i prefer to be seated close to my partner 🫠

especially for economy tickets

as a single person, on a fairly decent passive income $2000 a mont, i squawk at singapore airlines tickets

For example i'm looking at Phuket- osaka return end of may (6 hour flight) - the cheapest tickets are $1500 return economy.......just ridicolous prices

Whose is actually buying these ticket, ultra rich families.....? for a family of 4......thats $6000 in just airline tickets to go from thailand to japan

Anyone flew biz class morning flight 8.20am from SIN to TPE & able to clear immigrations at changi & use lounge overnight? How many hours before the flight can you enter?

Did you have any issues with immigrations asking you to wait till 3 hours before flight before you can enter the transit area? How do you overcome that objection?

I'm asking because I rather go airport the night before & rest in the biz class lounge than wake up at 4am to go to the airport.

I'm flying Australia - Singapore - UK, and I get this error when I try to check in with my UK passport:

Unable to complete check-in

There are issues with the details entered for the following passengers:
      • [redacted passenger name]

If you have a valid ETA, ensure the details entered during check-in match those in the ETA applications before trying again. If the issue persists, please proceed to the airport counter for check-in.
(Error Code: C4212)

And this error when I try to check-in with my Australian passport:

Online check-in is not successful for one or more flights in your itinerary. Proceed to the airport to check in for this flight.
(Error Code: C4220)

Has anyone else had this issue?

I assume the Australia - Singapore leg is checking for an Australia ETA (which my UK passport doesn't have as I can't get one given I'm Australian citizen).

And the I assume the Singapore - UK leg is checking for an UK ETA (which my Australian passport doesn't have as I can't get one given I'm UK citizen).

No issues using my Australian passport to fly from UK - Singapore - Australia, I guess the UK doesn't check exit visas.

It would be great if I could check in the 2 legs with separate passports, but can't seem to do this online. I also can't check in one leg at a time. Means I can't choose my seat!

Very disappointed, I can't be the only UK/Australian citizen flying from Australia to the UK!

hi, i am just wondering in summer, particularly the month of june, which flights operated by the 777-300ER will typically have many first class seats available? i am looking to try and experience first class at least once in my lifetime, and im on staff balloting so i essentially get the leftovers, thanks

I need to make an urgent change to a booking but this airline has an absolutely shit calling system. It keeps going in circles when I dial the Australian number. Ive been pressing options for the last 20 minutes!

Anyone have any idea how to contact Singapire Airlines from Australia and actually get a human to pickup? The number I tried is the 0272094388 number

I will shortly be travelling for the first time with an infant on Singapore airlines (MAN-->SIN-->DPS). For the baby car seat, does this need to be packaged if it goes in as checked luggage? I do not have any boxes at home large enough, and the telephone support team couldn't give me a clear answer.

Similarly, if the baby stroller (buggy) gets 'gate checked' does this then need any packaging?

Thanks in advance.

So about a month ago I achieved Gold Status. It is reflected on my ecard on the Singapore airlines app. However 2 weeks ago I tried to enter Lufthansas lounge but they claimed I'm reflected in their system that I am only star alliance Silver. I thought to myself, okay maybe it was because I made the booking back when I have not been upgraded to gold yet.

Today I tried to enter United lounge and again it's the same thing. They say that I am being reflected as Silver for Star Alliance

In both times I showed my app and ecard and it clearly says I am Gold status until April 2027. In both times the lounge staff told me they cannot admit me solely because I am Star Alliance Silver and not gold.

I tried to use Live chat on the Sg airlines app and was told that they cannot see my star alliance status, only my Singapore airlines status. But the person did tell me that once I become gold for Singapore Airlines I should automatically be upgraded to Star Alliance Gold

Anyway, he told me I will need to contact star alliance directly. I have done so and I'm now awaiting a response from them.

But did anyone face something similar before? Any idea what's happening here? Kind of frustrating that I'm jet lagged and just want to rest but I can't even gain access to the lounge.

Interesting to find out the eventual breakdown between A320neo and A321neo.

Deliveries to start from 2028.

Looking at flights to London and am seeing much cheaper fares to LGW. I'm aware it doesn't have the greatest reputation but is it really that bad?

Edit: I’ll need to get to Exeter by train after my flight.

I just booked JFK-FRA in business, and it'll be my first time taking a business class! I was wondering which seat I should book on the Boeing 777-300 ER? Looking at Aerolopa, it seems like row 14 only has 1 window. Originally, I was looking at the left side for "best views" as I land into Frankfurt, and took 18A to be towards the middle. Row 11 and 15 blocked off, and 12A, 12D, and 12F are taken. Is 12K a better pick and would it be "noisy" because near galley? Where do passengers enter to board - between rows 14 and 15? Would the doors before first class be for first class only?

I purchased Singapore Airlines economy tickets through a travel agent and wanted to upgrade to Business Class.

The travel agent told me upgrades are not available, while Singapore Airlines told me upgrades are only available for tickets purchased directly with them.

Has anyone experienced this before or managed to upgrade successfully?

Do Singapore Airlines have USB or USB-C charging ports on the airplanes (eg seats ) ? As you cannot use power bank I am considering this .

Just seen on instagram that SQ are not only commencing 2x daily to London Gatwick but also flights to MAD via BCN. Is this is a 5th freedom flight bookable just within Spain?

Have some alternate flight booked but not in favour of those
