Boeing 777

[FN-GM]

Hi,

I am a new member so please be kind

Around what age are the SIA Boeing 777-200 aircraft? I know they all won’t be the same but a rough guess.

I am under the impression they are going to retire them, what will they replace them with? Specifically the Manchester to Singapore route. Airbus A330? They are a smaller aircraft, will this mean less seat availability?

Thanks

Good Morning.

Some of the earlier 777-200 were laid up as part of the capacity reductions.

AFAIK the 777-200ER that serves MAN and other long hauls will be around for quite some time I think the A350 is slated to replace them.

Ay idea if they are planning to cancel the SIN-MAN/MAN-SIN route? Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't they reduce this route to the currect 4x weekly?

I was told that they do it nearly everyday by reservations

Seems that SQ 328 (SIN-MAN) does not fly on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. SQ 327 (MAN-SIN) does not fly Monday, Tuesday and Thursday

Definitely not as it stands.

The flight was daily, then went to five times a week then down to three, which it has been for a while. They have put additional flights on in December/January for the holiday period.

The normal weekly SQ327 flights ex-MAN are Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday, and obviously SQ328 ex-SIN is Tuesday, Friday and Saturday.

Will Boeing be replacing the ARINC 629 data bus, and if so with what ?

Thanks for that. Not sure what the loads are like as I'll be doing MAN-SIN for the first time this coming Wednesday.

I can't wait for that day to come!
