Nice to read SQ's offerings on the SIN-BKK sector as well! Looks like SQ has generally maintained its high standards, other than the lousy earbuds and plastic wineglass. TG edges out SQ in the F&B area by having a wide range of drinks on offer and displayed on bar carts, while on SQ, any other selection other than the wines and drinks displayed on meal carts, are only available on "Special request", which most pax are unaware of unless one is a frequent SQ flyer.

Was a good read.
WOW. That seafood starter looks really good for Y.
Compared to some of my CX J flights, where the starters just have lettuce and dressing on some regional flights.
I always thought TG had really good mains in Y simply and poor in J. The reason: They seem to be serving the same mains in Y and J, which was above Y standards but below J. That was when I flew them in 14. Not sure about the situation now.

Nice reading which I thoroughly enjoyed reading.
Interesting to note the SQ A333's don't have the personal individual overhead air vents fitted, thought only LCC's opted to not have them installed.
Also what's that on the cabin sidewall, it looks like a pop-out ashtray! It has a sticker alongside it too, just curious?
Thanks again for posting.

Not sure what that was on the sidewall. I don't think it was meant for passenger use. Pretty sure it wasn't an ashtray. I didn't notice it at the time. If I find myself on an A330 again, I'll go check it out!

I've been told by the SQ old timers that they had individual air vents in the past (742s, 707s etc). However, many passengers who were unfamiliar with how the airflow could be controlled would cover the entire vent with chewing gum. This presented an issue with maintenance. Since then, SQ decided that centrally controlled air circulation was the better option.

I've seen this type of power outlet on some planes. They are usually marked with a sign saying "not for passenger use" or something similar, but I've always wondered if they were live power outlets that could be used inflight, or if they were only meant to be used on the ground.
