How about the tubular Bulgari?

[taipeiflyer]

wow, gotta get one of those bvlgari ones... any other airlines out there other than TG providing bvlgari?

[KeithMEL]

Wow - a bottle of Incanto! Very nice cologne. :)

[StarG]

I think Asiana also provided Bulgari?

[StarG]

The new SQ kits indeed look very nice. Such a pity that the only good thing inside is the cologne. The hand cream is almost like water. :(

[taipeiflyer]

I think Asiana also provided Bulgari?

thank you StarG!

Wow, thanks for showing me the pics..I do like the ladies tubular Bvlgari. :thumbsup: The prominent SQ logo and diagonal zipper...very unique. What era was this? I wasn't SQ premium pax during those times.

[jjpb3]

Unique design, yes, but personally I didn't find the shape very practical. For one thing, because the fabric was relatively thin and pliable, the container twisted too much when I zipped or unzipped. I found that annoying.

IIRC it was around May-June last year. A guardian angel delivered one of the male Bvlgari ones to me around that time and it's the design as shown in post 8.

[StarG]

I second jjpb3's opinion on the tubular kit. I think this was between the BLU and the Ferragamo kits.

[KeithMEL]

I second jjpb3's opinion on the tubular kit.

I like the fragrance inside though. I've ran out of it but am having difficulty tracking it down at the shops...:sad11:

Indeed. I agree with you too. The design from a visual standpoint is so unique. Practically, I guess, to open, would be cumbersome.

Oh, I am not an owner of one of those to be able to comment on the fabric or what's inside. :biggrin:

[nickbot]

Loved the review/pics SQFan, also CGK's pics too - looks like you've got quite a collection of amenity kits ;)

To quote my trip report from April/May:



...All of the gifts from CGK and upright man

...I should've written a review on the kits/PJs, but various people got there before me! Now the proud owner of a set of the new 77W PJs too, thanks to my SQ Guardian Angel :) Will make sure I do a mini review in the next trip report I submit (about my FRA overnight experience), but shall wait a little so it's not clashing with celebrations of CGK's official LPP ;)

[StarG]

I like the fragrance inside though. I've ran out of it but am having difficulty tracking it down at the shops...:sad11:

Yup the Bulgari The Blanc (white tea) fragrance is pretty nice much better than BLU.

[CGK]

Anyone received the new color Ferragamo kit yet? :biggrin:

May I ask what is that tube in between the Lip Balm and Hand Lotion? Mine from MXP-SIN is exactly the same as yours but without that tube...

[oblivious]

That's after-shave lotion.. and wow the female PJs are pretty ghastly! And I thought the old, pink ones were bad..

It's a unisex pjs. Both male and female are the same.

[oblivious]

Ah .. ok. The only time I got a pink one was when I asked for the female kit, so automatically assumed blue = male, pink = female. That sounded a little MCP... :redface:

[StarG]

The handle on the pouch can be turned in such a way to make it a mini women's bag.

[CGK]

Hmm I did not see the ladies kit yet.
I thought the trend now is to have the pouch handle like that? Hmmm better go window shopping next time to see what's in the men's goodies! :smile:

[StarG]

The men's and ladies' pouches are identical, just different in colors.
If you turn the handle up then flip it, you get yourself a mini women's bag.

[CGK]

Thanks! :smile: What's in ladies kit? I am sure it's not pour homme. :wink:

[StarG]

They are the same contents minus the razor & a Ferragamo F ladies EDT in place of men's one.

[SQflyergirl]

Oooh the R kit looks so nice!

[MegatopLover]

Can the Ferragamo lip balm and hand/body lotion that comes in SQ F kits these days be purchased anywhere? I've looked in the KrisShop Duty Free catalog but didn't see any SF products. Haven't tried a Ferragamo store or a department store yet. I might like to get the hand lotion.

[kluau88]

Don't know if it's old stock but there was a mixture of the current gold color pajamas and some that were brown with black trim. Both came in the same color bag so not possible to identify from the exterior.

This was on SQ 638 and 637 this week.

[SuperFlyBoy]

wow, gotta get one of those bvlgari ones... any other airlines out there other than TG providing bvlgari?9w used to - not sure if they still do. (Don't fly them internationally very often...just did it using my miles for my family recently, which was a pure comedy of errors....but that's their FF dept falling on their face!)

They also sent out their platinum members Bvlgari cologne as a gift last year - a nice touch!

I have seen the new color now.
For medium size, I got the old mustard/tan color.
But other pax who chose L or XL, they were showing dark brown like th ecolour of the pouch for the PJ itself. Will try to get the L size for my next flight. :smile:

I don't think there is any correlation between size and color of the PJ. I guess it's like a present, you don't know until you open it up :D

I talked the crew. They said that probably SQ has more stock on M size. Thus, still loads the tan/mustard color for M, but dark brown for the rest. No need to wait till open it up. You can peek inside. :smile:

[MAN Flyer]

I've had a couple of pairs of the new dark ones this month.

[stargold]

Are they generally amenable to the idea of giving you an extra amenity kit (especially with a pleading puppy-face), on a next-to-empty flight? I'd love to get a female one for my sister on an upcoming SIN-ICN in F, but not so much that I'd choose the female one if I was only allowed one! :p

SIN-ICN you plan to take is which one? SQ 16 SIN-ICN is a day flight, and no PJs nor amenity kits.

usually they only load the amenity kits corresponding to the number of passengers. therefore, even all of the begging in the world doesn't really help because they don't have them to give out.

[stargold]

SQ LPP: I'm planning to take SQ602 which departs at 2350, so it's definitely a night flight :p I'm just praying to the gods that the equipment is a 744 as currently shown, not the dreaded 773 non-ER!

taipeiflyer: So I guess they don't load 1 male and 1 female per passenger so that s/he can choose? I was about to say "and anyway, how do they know whether you're male or female?" then realised... "duh!!!" :D

Obviously it's been far too long since I've last been on a flight...!

[DeltaFlyingProf]

I talked to the crew as well about this when given the dark brown PJs. The LSS told me this new colour was because of A380. I don't think she knows, but at least it sounds like something plausible to an average pax. :tongue3:

[MAN Flyer]

Got a pair of new Brown coloured PJ's for SIN-AKL then tan ones for SIN-FRA. So there is currently a mixture of both at the moment while they presumably phase the tan ones out.

Apologies if I've missed mention of this (likely !!) but has anyone else seen the 'new' F eye shades ?. They are brown ones, no idea if they have trickled down from the Suites or not, but they're better than the others. Got new ones for SIN-CMB then the blue for SIN-AKL-SIN and then gold ones for SIN-FRA, so again a mixture.

[SQ LPP]

If it is dark brown suede kind eyeshade, it was introduced at the inaugural 77W December 2006. :smile:

Just took SQ26 SIN-FRA 28Mar, and this what I got, plus brown pajamas :smile:

http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj85/haidi13/Amenity%20Kits/ad7e2dcc.jpg

And then from SQ25 JFK-FRA 30Mar, I got this red pouch, the Female version (and the whole male and female in the cabin got the red one, without any grey one being offered), and the LSS didn't say anything, just " This is your amenity kit, Sir". And this time I got a mustard colour pajamas (after I asked for it to LSS :rolleyes2::confused:)

http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj85/haidi13/Amenity%20Kits/0384f86a.jpg

[SQ LPP]

If I am not mistaken, the previous set were dark brown for male and dark red for female.
The new set would be grey for male and tan/creme for female.

Thus, in the previous post picture, the grey is the newer version, and the red is the older version.


Note: The Suite pax gets different one.

hmmm... :rolleyes2:
So..... what I got are 1 new version of male kit (grey) and 1 old version of female kit (dark red)? :confused:
Thanks SQ LPP for the information....:thumbsup::love4::biggrin:
BTW, on SQ637 NRT-SIN, will there any amenity kit or pajamas distributed?

If you are flying F from SIN-LAX will you get 2 kits and pajamas?
(1 from SIN-NRT, and 1 NRT-LAX?)

I'm flying this route in a couple of months.. can't wait to get my hands on those!

[MegatopLover]

(1 from SIN-NRT, and 1 NRT-LAX?)

I think they'll only give you one. SIN-NRT may be considered a daytime flight, so no PJ's given the 6-hour duration. They might not even load them in SIN but rather wait to load them in NRT. Even if loaded on both, I don't think they'll give you two sets unless there are many extras available.

[MegatopLover]

While I like the Ferragamo products, I think the liquid lip balm has a problem. They're undoubtedly manufactured at normal pressure, perhaps near sea level. When you unscrew the cap at altitude, the higher pressure in the vial relative to the pressurized cabin forces the liquid out, making a mess. You have to use up a fair amount of it until it will stop doing that.

At least, I think it's a pressure thing. Maybe someone has another explanation. In any case, it has come gushing out on me many times. Minor flaw.

[nickbot]

Such an issue would indeed be caused by the reduction in pressure at altitude as you suggest (i.e. fixed higher pressure contained within the tube pushing against the contents and forcing them out into the lower pressure cabin environment) - especially because the contents will settle towards the cap end. I'd suggest upending the tube and tapping the cap sharply a couple of times to re-settle the contents towards the crimped end before unscrewing the cap. Either that, or hold the tube and give it a couple of sharp flicks of the wrist in the correct direction.

Albeit without specific F experience so far ;) I've utilised this method with success in similar situations!

[milehighj]

I think they'll only give you one. SIN-NRT may be considered a daytime flight, so no PJ's given the 6-hour duration. They might not even load them in SIN but rather wait to load them in NRT. Even if loaded on both, I don't think they'll give you two sets unless there are many extras available.

Agree that one doesn't get two sets of PJ's on a two-sector flight.

However, I received PJ's on the daytime NRT-SIN on SQ 637, so it's likely that pax on SQ 12 should get them for the SIN-NRT sector.

[StarG]

As far as I know, SQ12 SIN-NRT is the only exception to the general rule. I was told that it is an eligible sector for kits/PJs even though the flight time is less than 7 hours.
For flights consisting of two sectors, cabin crew are supposed to give you an amenity kit just on the first sector, but PJs on both eligible sectors.

[Tanandika]

However, I received PJ's on the daytime NRT-SIN on SQ 637, so it's likely that pax on SQ 12 should get them for the SIN-NRT sector.

Do they keep it for you during the layover in NRT? What would happen if you were to take the PJ or the Amenity Kit out with you on your carry on during the layover and the FA realizes that your PJ and amenity kit has disappeared when you re-board? would she/ he distribute it anyway? :tongue:

[MegatopLover]

Very interesting, StarG. I've only flown SQ 12 upstairs to date. No amenity kit or pj's, of course, but very handsome CS on the jumpseat. ;) My first SQ 12 downstairs in the nose won't be 'til January next year.

StarG, the pouch looks different. How do they compare to the previous? Looks the current one is softer and offers less protection to the contents.

[StarG]

You are right. The old one offers more protection to the contents.
Similar materials used for the bag.
I personally like the old one better, but it does seem like it is time for a change.

Hmm not sure, LAX-NRT was 6/12 and 5 of us continued on to SIN and all 5 of us got a 2nd kit. My buddy who flew the same route 1 week later also got 2 kits. Did something change?

The menu did not feature caviar though :frown:

For SQ12, the SIN-NRT sector does not offer sleeper suit or toiletry kit, as it's a day flight of around 6 hours only. (I just got off that flight today, and the crew would not provide either of the 2 items, which they claim are only loaded at NRT for the NRT-LAX sector. On this flight, Kris World did not work in my and several other F seats, and they did not get my special meal right. Not one of my better SQ flights...)

For SQ11, both sectors, LAX-NRT & NRT-SIN offer sleeper suit and toiletry kit. That's why one could get two sets if flying both sectors.

We actually received our kits SIN-NRT. The family sitting in front of us, going only SIN-NRT, also received their kits then. I don't know why they didn't give you one.

[phaleesy]

My mom is blur like a sotong so my facts might not be straight.

According to her, no PJs on SQ12. A kit might have been given to her but we're not sure. It's a white pouch with bottles? Is that the kit? Anyway, she says she has left the white pouch with bottles on the plane because 1) the FA did not tell her it was for her, and 2) she has no use for them and 3) we do not need any more little bottles in the house! :confused: I told her she could have some use for the perfume at least!

Anyway, even if PJs were issued, she would not have taken it. She and my brother think PJs are the airlines' properties and taking them would be the same as stealing!

Anyway, she says she has left the white pouch with bottles on the plane because 1) the FA did not tell her it was for her, and 2) she has no use for them and 3) we do not need any more little bottles in the house! :confused: I told her she could have some use for the perfume at least!

Anyway, even if PJs were issued, she would not have taken it. She and my brother think PJs are the airlines' properties and taking them would be the same as stealing!

Phaleesy darling....

After seeing your post....i agree that you mum is a sotong...:wink: or maybe not....or she is driving you to become one as well :tongue:

Yes, the ladies F kit is a white pouch. Based on what you have written....yes its the amenity kit. If she think its not for her, she shouldnt have opened the kit bag in the first place. But having said that...she opened it and saw bottles.....and didnt take that bag coz of (2) she has no use for them and (3) we do not need any more bottles in the house. So she KNEW she can take it, but chose not to. So you have answered your own question actually :wink:

Try showing her this picture....

You will get your answer.

PJ should be issued on that flight as ascertained by the regular flyers on that route (and as posted here). If she thinks its airlines' property, then its not surprising that they took NOTHING off that flight.

Hope thay had enjoyed their F experience beside the part on PJ and amenity kits..:smile:

J777, you've assumed too much from what I've written. :wink: My brother was not travelling with us. He's not impressed with SQ F from previous flights. He's a NH guy.

My mom did not touch or open the kit. She guessed that there would be bottles of goodies inside because my brother and I had briefed her prior to the flight. I am guessing that she was given the kit (with the bottles of goodies) based on what she told me - a cream bag placed on the side (near the screen or somewhere?). Mom is not very specific when she speaks (and so am I :tongue3:).

The truth is she was not sure if she could take the kit. Based on what she's told me, the FA just 'dumped' it at the side without addressing her. Personally I think a comment such as 'Ms XXX/Mdm XXX, this kit is for you' would be more polite and would suffice. But apparently, there was no verbal exchange between them. Sounds like the pile of work your work colleagues would dump at your side at work, expecting you to know it's for you. :rolleyes: Unimpressed.

As for PJs, they were definitely not distributed to the passengers SIN-NRT. Mom heard a gentleman asking for them specifically. Anyway, mom reckons that PJs are only necessary for the NRT-LAX passengers. (SQ should really employ her since she's so penny pinching on behalf of SQ!) She and my brother share the NH mentality, so no 'stealing' PJs!

Well, I never said I was particularly bright. Girls take after their mothers after all, so ... :tongue3:

OT comment, I was eavesdropping to a Japanese lady and her male (gaijin) companion over lunch this afternoon. She was telling her male friend what a good mother she would be (she takes after her mother, mother was very good with kids, etc etc), then in the next sentence she asked him if he loves her! Silly woman, how could she be such an embarrassment to women?! :rolleyes:

Old kits were provided on SQ218 (13/12) and SQ227 (14/12), SQ218 (26/12) and SQ217 (28/12)

Got a new black kit on SQ15 (27/12). No kit on SQ16 (26/12).

I'm on the SQ 11/12 flight in F in about a month, so I will let you guys know what on earth they are doing nowadays...

[daron4000]

Given the new updated male kit on SQ 25 JFK-FRA on November 20th.

I was sitting in 2A. My travelling companion, in 4A, was given the old male kit. Go figure with consitency....

[broadwayboy]

On SQ11, when we transit in NRT, do we have to take our carry on/amenity kit with us? I wonder if security will reinforce the liquid rule and ask for the perfume to be placed in clear plastic?

On SQ 11, all pax has to leave the aircraft, but can store their belongings in the overhead bins. The security and cleaners will remove anything left in the seat pockets or on the seats. I had no problem with the amenity kits when going through the security check for transiting.

Somehow, I got 2 amenity kits on SQ 15 (from SFO-ICN-SIN). I read thread before that you should only get 1 amenity kit for entire trip.

Not sure why is it inconsistent, anyone experience this as well?

New SQ F amenity kits not listed here are 'army' green for men (contents still similar) - here's a picture I took on SIN-LHR this past Monday:

Got the same "new" amenity kits on my SIN-SYD-SIN flight last month :thumbsup:
But on SQ11 3 days ago, I got the previous "soft pouch" version one (after I asked the LSS for them :sad11:)
No consistency?? :confused:

The ladies one i got last week is a darker shade of brown now. No pic as I gave it away though.

[allmotor_2000]

Mine was a burgandy'ish color if I remember. I'll hold onto it next time.

[view]

Army green style on SQ26 today, I haven't been paying attention but I thought the soft pouch was the "new" or current one?

[jammed]

F Ladies amenity from SQ217 on 11 May; swapped the men's (same as Kyo's green) to this for wife. From comparison with Kyo's, seems diff is Incanto and missing shaver kit

Just saw it on flyertalk that SQ has changed the bag for the amenity kit again and this time it looks just plain awful and cheap. Gone is the nice color bag, in is the transparent plastic bag.

[benlee]

The one I got earlier was of light green canvas material, not leather. Still look nice though. The stewardess was kind enough to give me 4 sets as gifts to bring home. :smile:

4 sets? Wow that is generous, I thought these kits are accounted for & you cannot ask for extra unless other pax do not want it.

I do prefer the previous kit design, this new design is indeed awful & looks cheapo -looks like Made in China. Due to the design, the SQ logo is also unclear and faded.

Not sure about that. Maybe they happen to stock extra on the plane that day? She even gave me a large carrying bag to put the extra amenity sets. How nice of her! I don't actually use them but they are very popular with the ladies at my office.

Not a fan. I was hoping to get onto an R flight whilst they still had the old cloth ones. What a pity...

[MAN Flyer]

Oh dear, that just looks cheap, which I suppose is exactly what it is.

[jjpb3]

Lordy. That's simply awful.

CHEAP.

Who's the genius who thought this was what people who paid SQ prices deserved ??? :5eek: :rolleyes2:

What is going on with SQ's marketing folks ???

Oh you know they'll call this an "enhancement" and say that it's reusable so that you comply with TSA (and other bureaucratic and useless agencies) requirements for liquids the next time you use it.

[feb01mel]

Oh man, gosh, really ugly & pathetic packing. They just change it I guess, last week I was on SQ12, they were still giving out the cloth ones.

[sqprincess]

Oh dear - agree that the new packaging looks cheap and inferior :angry1:
Am glad I managed to get my first SQ F experience earlier this year when they still had the decent cloth bags!! Phew

[jammed]

oh goodness, this looks bad. glad i tried out F and got the nicer bag too.

regular F pax shd feedback immediately to FAs, and have it relayed up to Mgmt

[benlee]

Looks really cheap indeed! SQ cost cutting department personel certainly has no shortage of creative ideas to reduce cost.

I dont think complaining will help. The best way to draw their attention is with our pocket books.

Amenity kit is now unisex. Material bag again. No toothbrush or shaving kit - have to get those from the drawer in the toilet.

What's in the amenity bag now? Any recent changes?

Same leg on July 29th. Same set, with the PJs. THEY ARE INCREDIBLY WARM so be warned if u like to be cool in bed you're better off with some other attire. I am glad they give you lip balm in the cheapo transparent bag though. The rest I am a bit meh about. The fragrance is nice but not something I really love to wear on myself.

Good morning to you all,

I see from the last post back in 1997 and sorry just saw the 2010 amenity bags. Is there an update of bags since then. I have looked all over the net and can not find anything, maybe I am looking in the wrong area.

G'day Jammed,

Many thanks for the latest input, gee they certainly have changed over the years that is for sure. I am not sure if I am keen on the latest, however it is a freebie I guess (lol).

Yes you are correct I am in Canberra have been here for just over 2 years now, love it here just like a big country town.

cheers Mick

[A380MICK]

Good morning Jammed,

Thanks for the update my friend, Gee they have changed over the years, I like the look of a few oldies. Not sure if I am a fan of the new one though, I did show the wife last night and she said that it is a good brand (lol). It is complimentary after all so one can not complain.

Yes you are correct I do live in sunny Canberra, however for summer it has still been rather cool we do love Canberra though.

I saw your post with the other guy, I am more than happy to pick up the products on your behalf, I could bring them back with me (lol).

cheers Mick
