SQ621/622 Nov 1st GONE KIX-SIN

[fumitani]

The early morning flight from SIN and the afternoon flight from KIX which the airplane did the turn is now gone Eff Nov 1st, 2008

SQ618 and 617 stays as is.

Just went to the KIX office ( landing fee's and low load factor )

I would suppose earnings were not very good, SIN-BKK-KIX were axed because of that too.

I used to take this flight to KIX but have since changed to the 8am flight from SIN.

It's to avoid the regional biz seat.

The regional biz seat is great to sit in but not to sleep in.

Oh dear! It's my favorite flight that is being cancelled!

SQ 617/618 doesn't work for me!

I took the morning flight 8am SIN departure once. It was 50% and I took the 4.30pm departure ex. KIX during a busy time and it was 70% load factors...

The 4.30pm flight from KIX is always open for upgrades and C or Y has never been full when I needed to fly.

Years ago at KIX they use to use the 744 KIX-SIN daily with KIX-TPE-SIN 3x a week.

Changed to KIX-SIN 772 daily KIX-BKK-SIN daily KIX-SIN 5x then KIX-BKK-SIN axed....now we are back to square one.

KIX-SIN 772. We have lost lots of seats from KIX again.
