An armchair in the sky
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
Writing321
Advantages: Friendly, service second to none
Disadvantages: no eye shield
...in the sky.
I'd never flown Singapore Airlines on my long-haul flights to and from New Zealand, my home country, and now I must ask myself why? I have used three other major airlines and they definitely do not come anywhere near the service and comfort of Singapore Airlines.
I flew at a busy time, four flights to and from Kiwi Land early December (2005) and late February (2006) so all trips were a full plane and this I believe is a good time to ...

Singapore Airline Crap
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
petitesquirt
Advantages: What advantages? Should be renamed the NoStar Alliance.
Disadvantages: Too many to list.
...last time I flew with Singapore Airlines (SIA) was more than 10 years ago. On that fateful flight, the plane was delayed many hours, due to 'unforeseen technical problems'. They boarded , and unboarded (alighted) us many many times and did not even have the courtesy to provide the passengers with refreshments.
On top of the delays, there was the food poisoning incident when I flew with them from Hong Kong to Singapore. Did I mention they are also ...

As smooth as Singapore silk
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
Quakerman
Advantages: Great food, service and entertainment
Disadvantages: Not direct, except to Singapore
I flew Singapore Airlines, in economy, on the first two legs of a round the world trip with Star Alliance. They were without question the best two flights of the trip, and among the best flights I have ever taken (and I have been flying regularly since I was an infant).
My route with SA was Manchester to Singapore, then after a four day stopover, Singapore to Auckland. I flew out on Thursday morning, which is the one day of the week when SA flies ...

definately worth paying a bit extra for!
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
tazzywazzy
Advantages: really great service, friendly staff
Disadvantages: flights are really full now because the airline is so successful!
...London Heathrow (Term 3) to Singapore Changi Airport, but "oh, my, god!" it is definitely worth it. For those of us not made of money (or who have to pay for our own flights) return flights in coach are a shade under £800. These are the fares taken from the website, but I am sure that there are often deals about.
Singapore airlines is part of the Star Alliance which includes airlines such as Quantas, BMI & Air Canada. This often means that you ...

SingaPOOR for Comfort...
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
rachels_ratty
Advantages: Delicious food, very friendly and helpful crew, great entertainment system...
Disadvantages: Horrendous lack of space in Economy, slightly dodgy games system...
Singapore Airlines as we know them now them only came into fruition in October 1972, which makes their name relatively new in the world of long-haul travel. The history of the airline can however be traced back to 1947 when Malayan Airlines began operating internal flights within Malaysia. In 1963 it’s name changed to Malaysian Airlines and then again in 1966 to Malaysian-Singapore Airlines in reference to the fact that both Governments were ...

Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
Belfastgirl
Advantages: Top class service, good food, good entertainment
Disadvantages: Flights tend to be very full
...and to my great surprise Singapore Airlines fitted the bill (literally). I was previously not going to include the price because of me travelling from Dublin to London on another airline, but I have been asked to include it, so I will! In total, a return flight from Dublin to Sydney was £701! That's stopping off in Heathrow and in Singapore. To say I was pleasantly surprised with this was an understatement considering that on Aer Lingus it usually ...

Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
blackanddarkness
Advantages: Personal TVs, friendly cabin crew, good food and drink, clean
Disadvantages: None I can think of
...anough or lacking anything.
We flew Singapore Airlines to New Zealand to visit family and were going to a wedding. We decided on Singapore Airlines because Singapore was located more or less in the centre of London and Auckland.
We boarded a 747-400 at 22:00 GMT, right on time bound for Singapore in a flight that took 14 hours. The friendly crew made this flight feel shorter than my flight to Thailand with Thai Airways.
As we taxied to the ...

What other praises can I sing
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
babyenne
Advantages: Knowing you're flying with the best
Disadvantages: Always fully booked
Reading a few opinions written by other Ciao-ers made me realise that there is nothing new that I can really add as to what travelers can expect from SIA but my personal testimonials.
If SIA's CEO is reading these opinions, he could not but help thinking that he's almost god in the flying world ... And he wouldn't be too wrong.
I've been flying with SIA for as long as I remembered. Living in Jakarta for the first 15 years of my life meant that ...

We Had A Singapore SLING!!
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
ukusa
Advantages: Amenities, Service, Food
Disadvantages: Online Check-in doesn't always work
...heard many good things about Singapore Airlines and when we booked our Christmas holiday last January and found out that 2 of the 6 flights we would be taking were with Singapore Airlines, I was happy about that.
But, as always, one is always a bit cautious and everyone's experience and be different. My worries began back in August when I found out I was pregnant! After consulting the doctors and midwives, I was assured I could continue on my Christmas ...

Singing the praises of Singapore Airlines
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
marsden
Advantages: Compared to similar airlines, everything Singapore do is an advantage
Disadvantages: in comparison to others, nothing really!
...different airlines.
I have travelled by Singapore Airlines (SA) a few times now on long haul flights to Singapore and Australia and am pleased to give the emphatic thumbs up for this airline. Long Haul flights are testing enough for the most well travelled flyer, but consider the amount of stress and tireness that the air host/esses go through. You wouldn't even know that the SA host/esses (OK hosts for the purpose of this post, its a bit naff ...

Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by

Advantages: Optimal service, comfort, new aircraft
Disadvantages: None
...the others.
The main emphasis of Singapore Airlines has always been on service. Off course many airlines offer you good service but what about those little things that you can only experience if you have flown with them.
For example on my flight, I was in Economy Class and the night was upon us. Most of the passengers were fast asleep with their pillows stuck under their heads and blankets pulled up over their shoulders. I personally cannot ...

Singapore Airlines - A pleasure to travel with
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
KELLYLOUJ
Advantages: Great seat pitch, value for money, modern aircraft, polite staff, amenity kit
Disadvantages: None
...for just £77 return to Singapore a real bargain so I decided to pick up one of these flights.
My colleague who I was good friends with decided that she wanted to come as well so we both applied to take a friend with us and it was decided that we would go in September we received our fax back to say that we had been successful and decided to make plans for our stay.
This was at the time where SARS was just coming to an end and Tourism was pretty ...

Fly like a king...Raffles Class
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
khunKwai
Advantages: Excellent Service, Video on demand, Be a king for 12 hours
Disadvantages: none
...that is cool.
The food, well... Singapore has good food in economy, so I was expecting something outstanding in Raffles class and to be honest although you get a nice table cloth, real cuttlery and a nice starter, the food is really very much the same quality as economy, which isn't a bad thing as it's still good, the main difference being that you can get a cheese board for desert along with Port. Also getting refills for your wine, beer, coffee, ...

Singapore Airlines, The Jewel of the sky.
Review of Singapore Airlines - SIA by
atlantis140
Advantages: Great First Class Air service Irrelevent of the class you fly.
Disadvantages: Flights get booked quick because of the immense popularity.
Singapore Airlines really do rise above any other airline irrelevant of the class or distance you fly.
I have recently returned from a trip to Sydney, Australia and after the many good reports we decided to fly with Singapore Airlines. I knew I shouldn’t be disappointed.
We booked the flights through the travel agent about 1 year in advance as because of the popularity of Singapore Airlines the flights get booked up very quickly indeed. The total ...
