Following are the few reviews of Singapore Airlines services:
Steven Kozak:
I flew from Amsterdam to Brisbane via Singapore. AMS to SIN was in premium economy on an A350. The SIN to BNE sector was in standard economy on a Boeing 777. At this stage, Singapore Airlines doesn’t offer premium economy to Brisbane. These two experiences were extremely different. In Premium, I paid a little extra to sit in the front row. I was able to extend my legs fully and adopt different seating positions. It was relatively comfortable. IFE was excellent. The large screen, extensive selection, and quality headphones made the flight pleasant. Food was nice and the cabin crew was really professional. Changing in Singapore to the standard economy – the seat was obviously narrower and my knees touched the seat in front. I could only adopt one sardine-like position in my seat. All in all, it was quite uncomfortable for me. The food and service were efficient. The tiny screen was hard to see, having to often adjust the angle and on the 777, the selection was less than on the A350. In my opinion, there is a very distinct difference between standard and premium economy and I think the extra cost is well worth it.
H Cooper:
I flew from Houston to Manchester. The food was excellent; every meal was hot and tasty and served with a smile. The best part is that when we had a little turbulence along the way, the Captain came on and re-assured us. I will definitely fly Singapore Airlines again.
J Lerrite:
It was my first trip with Singapore Airlines from Frankfurt to Singapore and the journey was flawless. The staff was nice on the ground as well as on the plane. I had a Boeing 777 on the way in and A380 on the way back. First of all, this plane is awesome! It’s so massive and super silent. I paid for the extra space seat, which turns out to not be a super good idea. You got an entertainment system in the arm seat that is less pleasant. The service was good but the food was not so good, to be honest. The service was nice but, I didn’t find anything that stands out compared to other lines. The seat was ok, I could sleep without too much discomfort, entertainment system was fine, no complaints about it. In the end, I had two nice flights, I really enjoy them but, I didn’t find that the Premium Economy in a 5 stars airline was much different than a 4 star one. So, I’d recommend Singapore Airline, but, if you find the same facilities for less money in a less prestigious airline, then I’d switch for the second one.
