First Class Saver: Post your successful redemption

Redemption tickets

SQ637 NRT-SIN Suites on Feb 24
SQ319 LHR-SIN new F on Apr 12

Never flown in F before, planning a trip with my wife to Beijing next year and am thinking about using a few extra miles to try F from SIN - PEK. I know it's the 777 but it's not that many more miles!

Which would give a better experience for a first time F flyer? SQ802 (777-300ER) leaves 08:45 and SQ806 (777-300) at 16:50. Thinking SQ806 may be better as would likely have a full dinner service, whereas SQ802 may be breakfast?

Thanks for any thoughts!

If its your first time in F, go for the flight that serves you lunch or dinner.

I think SQ802 might serve lunch but open to correction. So you get to enjoy breakfast at TPR.

I'd choose SQ806 though because immigration queue at PEK would be shorter at that time and traffic into the city is also less congested

This pic suggests it's breakfast, unless the F meal service differs from J.

SQ806 is the way to go

Isn't PEK getting the A380 sometime next year?

Thanks for the advice everyone!

We actually had a complete change of holiday plans since we were able to get more leave off work. So I just managed to book 2x first saver awards on the A380 SIN-LHR! Our first time ever in suites/first class, so very excited and time to search through all the information on how to make the most of the flight

Is it just me or have saver awards been harder to come by off late? Been looking for SIN-LAX-SIN in both F and J and have only found 1 J seat on the SIN-LAX segment available after searching from 1APR to 31MAY. Same goes for SFO. Unfortunately I can't risk the waitlist game this time around.

I'm in the same situation for a US roundtrip in July/Aug for a F or J saver award. I've only managed to find a SIN-SFO flight and an IAH-SIN flight (both in J) over a month apart.
