On my SQ973 BKK-SIN yesterday, I was seated in Y. First time I have flown Y on SQ since reaching PPS
Well the service was great! Got greeted by name by the IFS and asked if there was anything he can do to let him or one of the other FAs know. Flight was totally full in Y so I felt a bit shy to look around if any other got similar treatment. Great service I must say!

The only greets I received was on SQ638 recently, but prior to this, nothing. And yes, from the details you told me, I must say, again and again, SQ loves you much much more. And perhaps now you will have more Y flights due to ...

Oh I was comparing the food on the SIN to BKK flight I guess for the Y part, it is similar to UA F

Originally posted by DeltaFlyingProf View PostWell I took UA F on LAX-SYD-SFO and must say I was not impressed. The food on this short 2h SIN-BKK flight was quite much better than what UA F offers on a 15h flight. No comparison I'm afraid...

Originally posted by zvezda View PostOk, so SQ Y beats UA F for food. I can believe that. Obviously, SQ Y also beats UA F for IFE. UA F beats SQ Y for the seat. But what about service? Which is better? UA F's high FA to pax ratio with lazy and abusive FAs or SQ Y's low steward(ess) to pax ratio with hard working, courteous employees?
What really struck me (and your question does make the point) is: why would anybody PAY for UA F if SQ F is available at similar price? In fact, I think I'd rather take a SQ 77W in J than UA in F (I must say, I think, because I've not tried SQ 77W in J yet. Only F)...

UA's F is often filled with employees and upgrades. On flyertalk's UA board, you'll see countless comments about how UA elites would never pay to fly UA F or J, and there are countless threads about upgrades. UA's 1Ks get 6 SWUs (systemwide upgrade certs) a year, so most of the upgrades don't even cost miles. They know they're flying an inferior product, but they put up with it because the price is right.
