I think it was open to anyone who's interested to join.
Am I right?
You can see the details here.

The Flight: SQ219....



Boarding was on time and commencing in usual sequence.


I was among the first to get into the aircraft.

Green kebaya girl greeted me at the door, and escorted me to my seat at 11K.


And here some shoots of the J cabin with the classic Spacebed.....

































The IFE monitor...








Seat controller....

It was a full flight in both classes.


OJ as welcome drink....





View from my window while we were still on gate....





Some shoots from my window while we were taking off....





BI A340-200 (or 300? not sure from this distance)
But wait..... BI have an A340???? When? Where? What?








Changi Golf Course???







My after take off drink: Sweet Ice Tea. Simple but refreshing...
With mixed nuts (no, it's not warmed up)....








Another cabin shoot after we were at cruising altitude....

It has been a while since my last flight with SQ J.
The menu cover looked new for me. Different from the usual "vegetables" or "fruits" themes....


The menu....

And the feast began....










And for the main course, I have BTC-ed "Gyu-Don"...
And it was look more appealing than the regular menu.
My neighbor lady asked me about my meal, because she felt her meal was not as appealing as mine, she wanted to switch hers into the one same like mine...
I told her that I've pre-ordered it in advance. And she looked disappointed with her choice...











The dessert....







Now it was time for another toilet inspection....

If I am not wrong, the A342 should be V8-BKH, which is catered to Brunei's King, His Excellency Haji Hassanal Bolkiah . Not sure if it is also used for the Brunei Government or only for the royal family?

Oh yes, I should think so!

By the way, nice TR and lucky you for being invited to the Tower Club, some of us have never had the honour!

Some Australian Outback scenery from my window....










Some "refreshment" before landing.....
















The infamous TWG "Paris Singapore" tea...







The infamous "SQ brand" mineral water.....







Side pocket for seat 11A and 11K








Dusk over Australian outback....












We landed pretty much on time.

As usual, immigration line at SYD was quite long.
In this case, the Express Pass for SQ premium pax became handy.
Not more than 3 minutes I have cleared the immigration.
Waited for my bags just for another 10 minutes, then I've already on the train to city not more than 25 minutes after I stepped out my feet out of the plane.
It was fast for SYD airport...

Welcome to Sydney.....





End of chapter 4....



Next: extensive review of SYD QF Lounge and GA's A332 J seat and IFE.....
