The world's most OVERRATED airline - Singapore Airlines

[SQ228]

Well I certainly can't comment on F service but Y passengers vote for SQ because when you try the competition, it's usually awful. With all but about 5 planes in the fleet having a very decent Y product and excellent cabin service, they are actually the best for long haul Y in my opinion.

Perhaps the caviar spoon doesn't bother most people because they think caviar is either foul and disgusting or they actually puzzle over what on earth people see in it other than some kind of vain status ritual and they therefore don't care about its serving utensil or the supposed life changing experience of eating it after it hasn't been soiled by a metallic spoon.

Not sure if troll post or EDMW is leaking.

You Sir/Mdm, have done a fine job.

Yup. Something is very wrong with the system.

Depends on whose perspective

[vsepr]

Maybe there are just more people with the opinion that SIA is better that those who don’t hold such views.

The best part is the cabin crew does not know what is a mother of pearl spoon!!!!!!!!

Even Garuda Indonesia First Class is so much better in the presentation, with an onboard chef, see the way their caviar is served:

Disgusting, might as well be in economy. Once my TPPS reserve value has expired, in about 2035, I’m never ever flying SQ again.

Interestingly enough actually it does affect you technically, if people don't vote SQ then SQ will have to review itself and look into the points like the ones you've highlighted and even more and further improve.

SQ is good and better than many but .... best I don't agree.

I totally agree with this: "SQ is good and better than many but .... best I don't agree." Hit the nail on the head!!

Yes, it does not affect me. I just find it strange and is puzzled/curious and want to know how SQ can be the world's best airline in all surveys annually without all the extras that "WOW" the passengers:

1. The lounges are not fantastic, mediocre at best. Do not even have a sleeping bed, no free Spa and massage.

2. No soup, amenity kit or pajamas even in long-haul Business Class.

3. No mother of pearl spoon when serve caviar in First Class. In fact, crew does not know what is a mother of pearl spoon. Caviar only limited to lunch & dinner in First Class, other airlines have it even for supper.

4. No chauffeur from airport.

5. No choice of hot or cold towels served on a towel plate like many airlines like ANA, Qatar Airways, Garuda Indonesia, EVA Air.

6. No baggage stand for First & Business Class passengers' baggage at the carousel like Garuda Indonesia.

7. No arrivals lounge in SIN like British Airways, Etihad Airways, ANA.

8. Their A380s do not even have a lounge area, bar, self service area with snacks.

What's EDMW? This is not a troll post. Just curious & shocked.

Let's hear the views of the others who have flown on other airlines with the "WOW" perks I mentioned above.

I was very impressed when I took Garuda Indonesia Business Class. They have a baggage stand for Business Class passengers' baggage at the carousel. The ground staff will pick up the baggage and place at the stand. No need to wait at all!

See the thing is, a “to each his own thing”, one can also say they are curious & shocked by your views. It goes both ways.

That's why it's very strange. What exactly is on the voters' mind? It's like being brainwashed. Do they vote out of fear/loyalty to SQ or are they just simply ignorant?

Or they just view things very differently from you.

[vsepr]

The same can be ask of a lot of companies actually. E.g. Apple
