Incredibly it will be a decade since these fabulous flights in April next year. Even more incredibly, the way things are going that might be about when Singapore actually reopens. To that end a few of us are in the very early stages of planning a 'reunion' to celebrate the event, and try and remember parts of it. It was an interesting few days to say the least, with events in the days leading up to the flights themselves.
So just a heads up to anyone who fancies a meet up/drink/reminisce about the event. Please pencil in the weekend of 9 April. We'll start looking into it in more detail closer to the time. You didn't have to be on the flights to join in!.
Fingers crossed life will be getting back to 'normal' by then and it will actually be possible to have a meet up.

10 years really went by right? It was the shame that the get-together didn't work out. It crossed my mind that it was the only flight where I've shared my meal with strangers haha.
If an 11 year reunion happens I am all for it though - or I will be in Singapore next month if people are based there.

Hard to believe that this final flight happened a decade ago, when it still seems like it was one week ago.
Came across this ad from 1989 about SQ launching the 744. Interestingly, the first services launched on April 9 that year, so the last flight was done just shy of 23 years after the launch:
