The SQ 787-10s

[9V-SPL]

9V-SCG just departed on delivery flight SQ8878 (CHS-KIX-SIN).

Vaguely remember that it’s off BKK in Oct/Nov only.

Flew on the B787-10 on 14 Oct on SQ983 (see my trip report). It seems that right now, the 787 only operates 2-3 times a week on the flight, with Sundays being quite consistent to be operated by the 787, with many of the rest swapped with the A330s.

9V-SCG is expected to be delivered on 05NOV18.

787 taken off BKK?

Yes, I noticed that too. Very disappointing given that I’m scheduled on SQ982 in early November and booked it specifically to fly on the 787.

Any ideas why they’re reverting back to A330?

Albeit temporarily? I'm on SQ982 in Dec and its still the 787. Hope they don't change too.

I'm guessing it has to do with delays to the delivery of SCG and SCH. SCG (ln 565) was recently painted and could possibly be delivered soon but SCH (ln 528) has not moved in 8 months and is still in the Boeing livery.

when is your flight? You managed to get row 11 seats?

My flight is SIN-PER in December. 3 x J Saver redemptions: 2 x middle bulkhead 11D/11F, and 1 x 12A window. The only seats blocked were 11A/K bassinet seats. All others selectable.

I had the same issue as the OP with my seat reservations on the 787-10 at about the same time.

I checked again today, and the 787-10 seat map on both the iOS app and SQ website has been fixed. I see the correct seat map now.

Are there different seat configuration for business class on 787-10?



This is the seatmap I got when trying to select my seat.

Thank you

The first two rows on that seatmap don't show a stagger, which is odd.

I have feedback to SQ about this, so far no update yet.
The seat map is wrong, Row 2 side table is outside, not inside.

This can be verified via many travel bloggers videos, as well as their own official launch videos.

Taipei and Fukuoka will get Singapore Airlines’ new regional Business Class

https://mainlymiles.com/2018/10/05/t...usiness-class/

Two more Boeing 787-10s will soon be arriving in the Singapore Airlines fleet, bringing its tally of regional ‘Dreamliner’ jets up to 8 aircraft by year-end. Some news in the latest schedule update reveals two more permanent routes for these aircraft – Taipei and Fukuoka will get daily 787-10 connections, sporting the latest regional Business Class seats, from late December / early January.

A Boeing 787-10 will replace an Airbus A330 on the morning flight from Singapore to Taipei, returning in the early afternoon, as a new year treat for regulars on this route from 1st January 2019.

The later Taipei flight continues to be operated by an A330 for now, so for those wishing to fly the latest regional Business Class product it’s the earlier flights to pick in both directions on this city pair from the start of next year. Here are the schedule details:
