Third Stop: the Esplanade Lounge....


I just spend not more than 15 minutes in the Premier Lounge. Without a tarmac view from the lounge, it was no use wasting my time in there, even the lounge it self quite nice and cozy.
So I went to the Esplanade Lounge, just across the hall way from Premier Lounge.
Esplanade Lounge is a dedicated lounge just for SQ pax. No card holder from any bank credit card has access for this lounge.

The entrance and the foyer...










The food section...

The sitting area...










The bar is behind those bars, and it also connected to the J section.

Chapter 3: CGK-SIN on SQ B773 regional F

It was already boarding time. But my ride to SIN hasn't came yet. I was told by the lounge dragon, the flight would be a little bit late, around 15 minutes.
I decided to strolling around the terminal. I always like CGK curved, airy and bright terminal, especially T2.

Some shoots of the terminal...
















The lounges complex.....

SQ957 CGK-SIN....

My ride to SIN that day, B773 regional, Madam 9V-SYI...






The Cabin...

Boarding almost 20 minutes late behind the original time and commenced in the usual sequence.
Being first to board the plane, I had opportunity to take some shoots of the almost empty F cabin before other pax were coming (except the lady with her baby)...

Some shoots while we were taxiing and take off...










The Feast...


First, the Menu. Only one sheet of paper, front page for SIN-CGK menu, back side for CGK-SIN menu. And it was worn out...







Pre take off drink: DP....





After take off drink: Ice Lemon Tea...

The mixed nuts (and yes, they were warmed)...




The mixed nuts and ice lemon tea....





I've pre-ordered for a seafood meal. And I kept on my choice when the FA asked me if I want something from the menu.







Salmon with pasta and the assorted bread with Riesling and Ice Lemon Tea....

My dessert: Pineapple in a plastic case...
(if you're wondering where the real dessert was, I've got NONE
I just realized that now after seeing my pictures again. Now I'm wondering, why I didn't asked them for the real dessert one. And I remember they didn't offer me that )





Ahhh.... the relaxing Paris Singapore Tea from TWG... Nice one...




Some shoot while we were landing at Changi and taxiing to the terminal...











Welcome to Changi....
Now it's time to "raid" the TPR...

[ycp81]

The presentation of the pineapple in plastic case is really poor. At least remove the plastic case!!

Chapter 4: The Changi Transit

We arrived at Changi only 10 minutes behind schedule. And we have went through security check after disembarking the plane. It was surprising me. Hmmm... maybe because this plane was from CGK??? Or it was because we hit the jack pot to get the randomize checked??

With my SIN-HKG BP has already been issued at CGK and with plenty of time for my 7pm flight to HKG, I headed to T3, to the SKL F.




TPR, The Lounge Inside The Lounge....


The lounge dragon at T3 SKL checked my BP, and escorted me way down through the SKL F section into the TPR section.
She passed me to her college in front of the TPR door, and said to her about my flight number.
And this lady then escorted me entering the TPR. She asked me if I've been there before or not. Been there a couple of times before, I thanks the lady and told her that I'll help my self in there.

As usual, the TPR almost empty at that afternoon. Only a couple of other pax who were in transit from the long haul (I guessed).

I went to the dining room.
The staffs there politely greeted me, and escorted me to my chosen table and handed me the menu.

Some shoots from the dining room.











Another feast began....


The menu....




I ordered for the lobster and the famous beef burger with foie gras, with some extra foie gras for the burger, which the "abang" was delightfully obliged that.

Table setting...




My drink, sparkling water with ice and lemon...




U.S. Prime Beef Burger With Foie Gras, Rocket Leaf and Fried Quail Egg, with extra Foie Gras on the side....
Now you see it...



Now you don't...
