Got a nice Christmas present from SQ tonight... when boarding for the flight SIN --> SGN they scanned my BP and the message "INVOL UPGD" appeared on the screen. Then the same thing happened for Mrs matt_will_fix_it too

Both are KF*G and it was on a cheapo 2 to go fare.

Also flight was on 9V-SVA which is equipped with Spacebeds - I thought that was strange for such a short flight. I would have thought this route would be served by the 9V-SR seried (Y=293) so I'm guessing the equipment change meant there were less seats in Y (Y=255). Flight went out full in both J & Y.

I thought SIN-SGN is served by the Spacebed-equipped fleet almost everytime?

Not sure - first time on this route. Maybe one of the more seasoned visitors to SGN can confirm.

As far as I know, it has been regularly SV-series aircraft.
Not sure if that has changed recently as aircraft deployed on some flights are more fluid than others.

Never on SQ,

Only on NH, and UA

I got the Spacebed on SIN-SGN end of November, and I recall previously it was Spacebed-equipped too, in April this year.

I've done well in excess of 50 SIN-SGN or vv flights in J on SQ and on only three occassions has it been on anything other than a SpaceBed bird, including the last one which was a 3 class regional 773.

On a few occassions I've had the same a/c bring me in from MAN or SGN and then take me on to SGN or MAN.

[SQ225]

SQ 185/186 would be the flights most likely to be served by the regional configuration (in my experience), happened twice out of 4 times for me, but then again, I usually take the 173/178 flights which have been SV* 100% of the time.

What a great xmas its been for me, I was Op-up'd (to F) from SIN/MNL on the 23rd Dec, and today I get up'd to F again on the ICN/SFO flight... This is the 3rd and 4th op-up in the 5 years as QPPS, but 2 within a week, surely that's a record?

Thanks SQ

You lucky bloke. I about the same length as QPPS and I got none. I have grown to the point of no longer expecting an upgrade. You sure you are not TPPS?

This past Christmas season must have pushed SQ's revenue management software to its limit. My friend, who has zero status, got a Y-J upgrade on his DXB-SIN flight. He was sooo grateful, and couldn't stop grinning about it.

ARN-LHR on BA yesterday evening.

I boarded early and was comfortably ensconced in an emex seat. I feared the worst when somebody came along with a BP with the same seat and mentioned that she's a standby pax. Crew took both BPs and later gave me back mine with the words "Here's your new seat".

So I swapped a window seat - with bags of leg room and nice sandwiches and a choccie bar - for a cramped aisle seat and a cheap ready meal. And it was a full flight, all the luggage bins were full so I had to restow my case back in Y (and fight against the hordes to reach it after landing).

SQ: My first op-up on SQ was when i was flying SIN-MEL in 2006, it was the star alliance 773, got to the counter and tey said oh these are your new seats, and my parents and i got upgraded to Business from Econ. Then in 2007 the first time i went overseas by myself. I specifically booked on the 77W out of MEL in economy. When i got to the gate, i was called to the desk with a whole bunch of people and we all got upgraded to Business. I rang all my aviation friends saying IVE BEEN UPGRADED TO THE NEW BUSINESS CLASS!! OH MY GOD! hahaha

QF/CX/BA: My father is a QF chairmans club member so we used to always be the first ones upgraded whenever we flew international on One World. I specifically a time when we were flying LHR-SIN on a BA 744 and we upgraded from econ to premium econ (a mild upgrade ). Reason i remember it was we got let into the "concorde lounge" or something, the lounge that over looked where the concordes parked and all the concorde passengers relaxed, and i ran into Bernie Eccelstone (Owner of F1).

[Trawler]

Got Silver a few months back and my first flight since, BNE-SIN both myself and my wife got an upgrade from Y to J.

Shame it wasn't the SIN-LHR section, but we certainly didn't complain! I'm Gold now so here's hoping for another upgrade next time...

If I understand correctly, holding that card allows you access to the Concorde Room anyway regardless of being upgraded or not.
