GA to operate widebodies on SIN-CGK

[UMD]

Just a minor correction GA823 was only upgraded to A332 from 28-OCT (not 27-OCT), as it was the return flight of GA838 which has been upgraded to A332 from 27-OCT.

I was on the "innagural" flight of A332 on GA838 on 27-OCT. The flight is very empty. Only 1 passenger in C. Y is not even 50% full I think (I did not really count, but many empty rows).


So it is a mix feeling for me, if I will really choose the A332 flights over B738.

Widebodies over narrowbodies for me anytime. I agree that 5 of GA's A332 Y seats (those ex-NTU HU; PK-GPH to GPL) are not very comfortable as the seats are very hard. However, GA's own A 332 (PK-GPM to PK-GPQ) have great soft Y seats with great Panasonic IFE system and airshow.

I was on the 'Innaugural" flight of A332 on GA838 on Oct 27 as well. Where did you sit?

FYI, there were only 50 pax in Y on our flight.

Yeah it was PK-GPL and I notice it is a lease aircraft.

Well I prefer widebodies also, but with no airshow, it likes flying budget airlines. The reason why I fly premium carrier because of Air Show. I want to know exactly where I am


I suppose to seat on 16H but I move to 15H. Did not know the famous Mr. UMD also on the same flight with me

Didn't realize the typo before. It's been corrected now.

so where were you seated?

so where were you seated?

I was at 21G and got the whole 4 seats to myself while my wife sat across at 21H and has the 2 seats to herself. If you did walk to the mid-cabin lav, we would have probably seen each other without recognising it.

21G is on the other section right?

I did walk to lav just behind the first section of the economy cabin... I guess you should be around there.... may be i saw a glance of the infamous Mr. UMD
