This has simply taken away any possible redeming feature of flying out of LHR with SQ for me.
I have used VS metal a few times before and frankly was less than impressed. Whilst I appreciate they don't operate a F cabin, the VS C service on board is patchy at best, and shockingly bad at worst by comparison. A decent lounge on the ground doesn't make up for the fact that sometimes you think your flying "Air Little Britain" and certainly doesn't inspire me to consider flying them ever again.
I had the misfortune some months ago in having to spend 4 hours in the SKL F. It was so boring that even my book, which had started off promising, got infected and became dull. I'm sure that most people who use it are *G hiding from the RCC lounge. SQ won't mind that I'm sure, afterall they can bill United.
I'm sure that VS and SQ only did this because eligible pax would ever use the SKL in preference to the VSCH. But in doing so they have reduced the F experience further and at a time when premium cabins are hard to fill, maybe this wasn't the smartest move as there are heaps of other options on sectors that gateway through Asia.
