B77W
Width: 30"

A380
Width: 34"
Pitch: 55"
So I guess 77W has the worst J seats.
Which seats do you recomend onboard SQchap?
The New Business Class seat equipped A345 does not have such a generous seat pitch.
Seat guru has not updated their records.

Thanks for digging up this TR. I had a look at the pictures again and wanted to express my astonishment how good the food pictures are. What camera did you use and how did you make your food look this yummy? I seriously cannot imagine that my camera whould have made the food look that delish.
Cheers, FloHome is where your heart is.

It was just a modest point-and-shoot Fujifilm F30 btw! It has a great macro mode which I used, and small enough to be inconspicuous when taking pics on board. I did brighten and soften the image using Picasa though, a program I like!

Thank you for your report.
Before I entered to SQtalk, I have often read this report and enjoyed it. I think this report is helpful for people who are going to fly SIN-EWR route with A345 converted to all-business class configuration.

I then started checking out this month's IFE. The flight mode picture of the earth only showed one 2D profile of the earth though, so I was staring at the African continent throughout. (The route was understandably long but I prefer the map shown on the A380 SIN-LHR route)
Before A345 was converted to all-busness class configuration, IFE displayed outline route following the actual one. But it seems that new IFE system displays a Great circle route, I suppose.
Great circle route is known for minimum one between 2 points on the globe.
Although SQ22 (or SQ21) uses trans-Pacific or trans-Atlantic route, Great circle route for SIN-EWR is trans-Polar route. To display the whole route for SIN-EWR, IFE might show African continents, I guess.

About SIN-LHR route, I have no idea.
In addition, I have never flown this route on the aircraft equipped with the new IFE system.
But as far as I see the picture above, I think it is also a Great circle for SIN-LHR.
