I did SIN-BKK-LAX-LAS-LAX-EWR-LAX-BKK-SIN.
The BKK-LAX route was great in Y. IFE is not up to SQ standard but close enough. Food was ok. Overall I would say on par with SQ in Y if not a little less up tight. Great lounges compared to SQ in SIN for Y *G pax.
Best thing is that TG is usually not full compared to SQ so I keep an eagle eye out and quickly run to them when the doors close. This ensures I get at least 2 seats to myself. Thats the Singaporean in me! But hey, I got 2 seats! haha
Finally, Continental gave me problems with checking my bags all the way through to SG on the way home. They could only check through from EWR-LAX-BKK because apparently my BKK-SIN leg was more than 24 hours away. So I just said forget it and picked up my bags in LAX.
Return flight was also pleasant. Stopover in BKK for a massage to really feel fresh when arriving in SG.
So, yeah, I'd go for it if the fares are good. After all that you probably wanted to know about J and not Y.
