[SIN] The Private Room at SKL T3

[9V-JKL]

Pardon my French, but is TPR the same place than the First class section of the Krisflyer lounge in T3 ? Have never made the right turn upon entering the KF lounge so I'm a bit clueless
So, if I summarize (I want everything to be perfect for my first Suites flight !):
> arrival at T3 through door 1 where the First counter is.
> proceed to the First class checkin followed by dedicated immigration control
> now I'm airside, anything else First-specific that I should know of other than TPR and/or First class section of KF lounge ?
Thanks, I'm so so looking forward to it

F checkin at T3 is BEFORE door 1. It's a separate drive way

As 9V-JKL says, the dedicated F check-in (someone called it the F Terminal a few weeks ago ) is a separate drive before you get to the main part of T3. TPR is at the back of the SKL F, not the Krisflyer Lounge which is in a different location altogether.

You will get your BP's, walk straight to the dedicated FCL immigration then after you pass that and enter T3 the SKL's are up the escalators slightly to the left. Go to the White Ladies at the entrance and show them your Gold TPR invitation, or just your Red F BP if you want to pocket the Gold invite like many do.

One of the White Ladies will then escort you through the SKL F to TPR the entrance to which is tucked away on the left at the back of the SKL F.

Thanks 9V-SKL and MAN Flyer for the infos, I recall now the drive on the left before entering the main T3 building.
One more question then, if I may: TPR and SKL F being 2 different places, are the eligibility criteria the same ? I'll probably visit both anyway (if I can) to do a nice trip report

Nope.

1. Arrival at First Class drop-off, a recessed driveway into a secluded mini-annex building prior to Terminal 3 main building. Your luggage will be taken care off right from the car.

2. Check-in there, while sitting down, with towels and refreshments? my last trip there didn't have such service though but thought had those before.

3. Dedicated passport control

4. The TPR is a restricted section after the First Class lounge where it is usually very quiet and meals are served to the table and cooked fresh in the kitchen.

5. That's all.

Thanks all for your comments, much appreciated
All is left for me to figure out is how to highjack one the funny golf carts to bring me to my gate

Just shower really, really, really late

(nah, don't)

Or, limp your way to the desk and ask one of the ladies in white about your boarding gate and then comment on how far B10 (or whatever your gate is) is from the SKL

The SKL & KF Gold lounge are in different places. TPR is at the back of the SKL F, you walk through SKL F to get to it. The eligibility is not the same, TPR access is for F pax only, SKL F is for Solitaires (TPP's) plus a guest flying in any class on SQ.

The TPR is still serving Dom Perignon! Nice

[Durian]

Thanks all, I have planned things in such a way that I have 3 hours before my flight, plenty of time for TPR and SKL F

I'd prefer it if they still had LGD myself.

F.

If I keep the invitation can I use it another time? What happens if I am flying in Y and have an invitation? WIll that look suspicious?

What TPR like before a morning flight - Breakfast time before SQ308 0905 SIN-LON? I have been in the evenings only and it was lovely (it was very quiet)

Whats the best experience that I can get - ie what time to check in etc. I am staying in SIN the night before and am flying in Suites (First time so Im quite excited).

The invitation has a date written on it and that's the day of your First/Suites flight. You don't need the invitation to get into the TPR as it's more a symbolic gesture and you can get access by just showing your boarding pass as well.

The only thing that sets the TPR apart from the FCL is the fact that you can do a a la carte dinner. That's very limited and boring in the morning. If you want to 'experience' the TPR, you are better of on a night flight.

Thanks for the info. Thought I might be able to use it another time
(as my F is paid for by me - its usually the back for Mrs and I. Occasionally, for a treat...a bit further forward.).

Used the TPR for night time flights before, only twice though when flying in F, it was great and the wine was super. Nice to have meal at a table though.

Last time in F we had stayed in SIN the night before. Taxi dropped us off at main terminal entrance, I forgot about F entrance, so we walked outside and then into the F checkin. Looked good with 2 bedraggled people who had been in Samoa and Niue for 6 weeks...Fun though!


I need to get the morning flight out sadly.
