SQ A330 Inaugural Flights SIN-BNE-SIN and Training Flights

[Kyo]

PS: I don't know what to wear for the flight yet. Sandals, short and t-shirt?

Congrats on making the flight!

At the moment, Singapore is very hot! If you will be going about in the outside sun, and you don't mind sandals, shorts and a t-shirt, you will be doing yourself a favour to wear them

(as long as high tea/coffee does not require formal attire, of course)

[SQ LPP]

Enjoy the inaugurals everyone!

Thank you. Hope I will not get offloaded.

Do report back what souvenirs you get for flying them.

Souvenirs? Well if it's a marketing thingy, i.e. insignificant first flight, no souvenirs I guess.

I mean what to wear in the plane! I thought we discussed about thongs and priscilla outfits early on in this thread.

Dear all,

Unfortunately, I have to cancel my trip to the inaugural because my grandmother has just passed away this morning at LA.

Sorry to hear that, Carfield. Condolences to you and your family.

Well, I have read somewhere that one post which stated that this SQ255 is a complete 100% marketing gimmick.

Really ? I thought it was a flight from Singapore to Brisbane ?.

Oops... reading my BP incorrectly. I am number 13 who checked-in for BKK-SIN, and number 2 for SIN-BNE. I wonder who is the first person who checked in!

Well I got an SMS off J777 earlier today asking why I hadn't checked in yet, so it's probably him.

Let me know what you are all doing prior to the flight. I get in at 6 and was going to pop into town for an hour to have a drink with a mate but Kyo gets in at 8 so would like to meet him if possible.

SQ LPP, drop me a message when you know what you are doing. I still have the same number. I am off out to the closing party of my friends bar here in Saigon now, so doubt I will see this thread again until I am at SGN tomorrow afternoon.

You've got PM.

Hey - no worries if you want to pop out to town for a drink with a mate. SQ might not yet have any inaugural festivity atmosphere at 20:00 anyway as the flight's a fair few hours away after that. I'd be keen to find out which gate they're departing from and swing by though.

If all else fails, there's always Skyview lounge for Priority Pass... I will try to hang around and stay awake



Or Burger King for 2 hrs (painful)..

Hmm when I checked-in, J777 had not checked-in yet. May be somebody else?

I will try send you messages. But it seems my SIN number having a glitch. I will make sure J777 contacting you as well. I know I have to be early back in Changi for retrieving bags I left there to be checked-in for the flight.

Now I remember that SIN will be the end of your destination today. Thus, if you leave the secure area, you will not be able to go back in. If you want to chaperone us to the gate, that would be great! I don't know yet how to sneak you into SKL though without BP. But we do have at least 5 SQTalkers (+1) who will be on SQ255 C class.

Anyone else in Y who has no access to SKL C tonight?

[SQ LPP]

Enjoy the inaugurals everyone!

Ditto.

I was actually booked across the aisle from a certain Canadian VVIP long ago when this thread started, but cancelled because two other VVIP's were arriving into LAX via NH006 F (Super Cheeseburger and all!). Hope you guys have a blast!

I'm glad you're feeling better, SQ LPP!

Now I don't feel love by you, Mr. HUGE! You ditched me for the other two ...


I tried to go to the gate 52 at NRT to say hi to the two VVIP you met, but they had boarded the plane. And the gates agent might think that I am a nut case ...

Hey, it was only fair since you ditched them in YVR.

Only if you were wearing your thong...or is it, "tong?"

Hey, it was only fair since you ditched them in YVR.

True... fair and square ... but another first flight on SQ would be very significant for me (even though it's not according to others here. )
And, with the JUNO award (equivalent to American Music Award for Canadian) happens in Vancouver, I had more desire to skip town. Well, yes, I jumped the gun once the doctor said ok to travel. If I was not able to get any seat to Asia, I would be in LA and SF this weekend instead.

I was carrying my teddy ...

Hmmm...would we have gotten a call?

[SQ LPP]

I am the kind of person who does last minute things... So I would call when I knew I would not be able to fly to Asia...
Even while transiting at LAX, I was still on the phone trying to fix my schedules. Yeah, it's a bit complicated in being able to issue the BP for SIN-BNE flight (considering all other stuff attached to my profile.)

[SQFAN]

Oops... reading my BP incorrectly. I am number 13 who checked-in for BKK-SIN, and number 2 for SIN-BNE. I wonder who is the first person who checked in!
