  • Does anyone know when the Amadeus switch-over is due exactly? I may book some flights again soon, but would like to avoid the change time.
    Still wonder if the website will remain the same with just the backend being changed.

    • An application error occurred. Please contact your local Singapore Airlines office.
      What kind of website is this. I am trying to book a flight for my whole family in a hurry. Goodness....

      EDIT:
      the website is still hellish as ever. Apart from non-functionality, it apparently gives us higher ticket price. I have all done via telephone and thank god, no $50 fee - and it's cheaper.

      • Now, we can see all other our bookings again in "My bookings"

        The old website was still better. The new one allows online changes only once. After that, we have to call to make changes so it is just not right for them to charge for phone calls. The new one does not allow changes of multi-city itinerary either.

        What on earth are they thinking that they remove these useful functionalities

          • Now my Manage Booking page does not show any bookings.
            Each booking needs to be pulled up individually with booking ref and last name.
            A message via website feedback yielded an e-mail with apology, and asking for my patience while they work on repairing the website.
            How long do I have to wait?

                For 2 weeks, it was malfunctioning. I sent two complaints.
                Then last Monday, it was working again.

                You mean it's now not?
                Goodness, if so, this website is trash.

                In my complaints, I told them they better fire their Website team if they can't fix these things in a day or two (but 2 weeks). Let's all do the same.

Selected a child meal for my daughter and saved the changes. Guess what! No child meal for my daughter had been selected and neither was there an email confirmation that I had made a selection. The same thing happened 6 months ago and I was told on board that I had not selected a child meal! Fortunately, they had extra child meals on board. Does this mean that I have to call them directly to reserve my child meal? Any one has encountered this problem and overcame it?
                  I decided to give the dreaded website another chance today instead of calling them and guess what? For the first time in 6 months, I was able to change my daughter's meal to a child meal! I even got an an instant email confirmation to inform me that my meal selection was successful. The website never ceases to amaze me.

                  • Nice. Went to the website to update my new passport number. 5 mins later I get this e-mail...

                    Just when we thought it was at its dumbest, it gets even dumber still...

                    • Thats the price SQ has to pay for outsourcing their IT operation.

                      This is how screw out as a example of seat assignment for 2 persons of my coming flight
                      (sorry, do not know how to post the picture of Krisflyer email here)
                      At first I though I read wrongly!

                      This is for departure flight SQ12, have not check on return flight yet.

                      • Can't even enter pax details for a redemption. Selected a nominee, and the greyed out name fields were updated automatically. Then when it came to the birthdate and nationality selections, it still displayed mine and not the nominee's and just wouldn't let me change it.

                        Sometimes I wonder why I even bother

                        Anyone else encountered this before?

                            it's there in my acc, but it is useless as ever.

                            I had a nice chat with certain employees of SQ at changi today. They agree that the website is terrible and they received lots of complaints. I developed a habit of always "Complement" the non-functional website everytime I met/call SQ employee, and most of the time, they agree, but some are "tired" of complaints.

                            • Rather than trawl through 66 pages of this thread, has anyone been able to book a stopover on a KF Award on this farcical website or was that 'enhanced' at some point ?. I've been trying and can't get it to play...

                              • Could not logon on Saturday.

                                When I could, on Sunday, I went and change my flight and paid for the difference in fares. Then it informed me about an error.

                                It took the money from my credit card.
                                I lost my booking for my original flight.
                                I did not have any reservation for my intended flight.

                                Sigh...................
