Originally posted by flyinghigher View PostI'm in Singapore at the moment, supposed to be studying in Sydney, NSW. Hope i can go back before 2nd semester starts in third week of August. I am also hoping that the Australian government gets a progress on that international student exemption.
Even if they let international students come in, the students will be subject to a 14 day mandatory quarantine in a hotel though. This is unavoidable.

For those waiting on refunds, I promised I'd give an update.
Today, I received the full refund of points (which were extended to 30 June 2021) and taxes (refunded to credit card).
Flights were cancelled on 20 March and refunded on 29 May.
Total time taken = 10 weeks.
I hope this information helps other people who are waiting.

I am still waiting for my SQ refund (almost 8 wks now). Surprisingly, Scoot processed the refunds quicker for cancellations made on the same date as I received the refunds after 6 wks.

SIA has changed two Sydney flights SQ231/222 (A380v2) and SQ221/232 (A380v3) to 3-class A350s during July 2020.
Seems a waste of time to change those if they were going to cancel them anyway (July schedule still TBA), so perhaps we will see increased frequencies to and from Sydney in July?
Currently the airline is operating pax flights only on SQ211/232 (B77W) on this route three times per week.

Does anyone know if there are flights other than what SIA officially announced on schedule, are those passenger flights?
I just noticed there is a SQ930 (SIN-SUB) on 10 June 2020, but this was not previously announced.
If they are passenger flights, how does one get a booking on it or find out if there are future such flights.

I only found out yesterday when Changi arrivals info listed this flight under freight arrivals than pax arrivals.

Originally posted by Not You View PostSIA began operating SQ246 Sydney (SYD) to Singapore (SIN) via Toowoomba (WTB) cargo flight every Friday. This flight is operated by A359(Medium Haul) and continues till 10JUL20, adding a new destination served by SIA.
I think the usual traffic there is largely limited to Embraers, so quite a significant development. I'm struggling to think of what they could be transporting- trucking cargo up from BNE to WTB is quite an effort and the local region is largely mining/agriculture. I'll ask family in the town if they've heard anything about it.
