Honestly Singapore Airlines really disappointed me on this supposedly signature route. SQ 24 is the world’s longest scheduled commercial flight and the flying time is eighteen hours, and yet the menu is just insufficient in terms of quantity and quality. Three FULL meals should be served, instead of two. They served lunch after takeoff, and they did not serve dinner till 9pm Singapore local time. From my previous experience with SQ’s ultra-long-haul flight, I ordered a sandwich around 6pm local time. Honestly the sandwich was nice, but small. Dinner was just bad overall. The appetizer was ridiculous and basically leftover chicken and diced fruit threw together and put on top of some lettuce. The dressing was missing and I was not sure if the crews forgot and they never loaded it. I ordered BTC for main meal and the beef was only so-so. Then the desserts were served and I chose both the cheese plate and the passionfruit pound cake, which was awful. The mousse was artificial tasting and honestly any US supermarkets can serve better cakes than SQ. With more than eight hours left, it concluded all the main meal services. I ordered the soy sauce chicken noodles prior to arrival and it was basically instant noodles tossed in soy sauce with some chicken. At least I got some real protein, but that’s it. The snack menu was just poor with lack of “real fresh food” offered. A hot light meal should be offered prior to arrival.

As an aviation enthusiast, I flew this flight but I have ZERO interest to fly these long-haul flights again on Singapore Airlines. I wrote a pretty strongly worded email to Singapore Airlines and got a polite reply. However I voted with my wallet. I will not fly any SQ long haul flights beyond twelve hours. If you have to fly SQ ultra-long-haul flights even in business class, please remember to pack some snacks and remember that you can order as much instant noodles as you want. Don’t be shy because you might be hungry even after that annoying midflight dinner service.
