LX gave out amenity kits in F for the hop from BKK to SIN - with the fantastic LaPrairie lip balm... It is just pathetic coming up with non-sense rules as to when you can hand out amenity kits or not. Most of the current Ferragamo kits is pretty bad stuff anyway so I am not really bothered - but it doesn't match the F experience telling pax that they meet the general rule but this particular flight is excluded from the rule. More pathetic is that SQ is still flying around the regional F product and not telling anyone that it is around. SIN-MEL with ueber-F (Suites), 77W F and regional F is an example for pretty bad management decisions. Needless to say that on SIN-MEL they are using the regional F for the overnight flight...

From my own experience, the other way around on my LX SIN-BKK F flight, they didn't hand out amenity kits. Even longhaul pax only got theirs on BKK-ZRH. I didn't ask for one, anyway.
But yes, on BKK-SIN LX F, I know at least one SQTalker who did get one F amenity kit.
In LX J they didn't give 'em out either way unless you're longhaul (and they do ask).

On some flights getting amenity kits and some don't, it is quite reasonable and non non-sense in my opinion - and it IS the industry practice in general. Only on some Europe-Asia tag on flights on LH/LX etc. can you get amenity kits on short haul flights in J & F, and it is not consistently practiced from what I see.
On SIN-MEL F mixed product-vaganza: I hope it is just a transitional period with deliveries & retirements & redeployment of aircraft. It can indeed be frustrating to buy an F ticket on SQ knowing that you may end up getting the older / (much) less desirable product should you need to change your schedule, or if flight disruptions occur.

Originally posted by Doraemon View PostI think you have misread the statement. It says "Givenchy-designed sleeper suits and Ferragamo toiletry kits are offered on long haul flights, seven hours and above with the exception of SQ12...". Even though SQ12 is less than 7 hrs, you will still get your sleeper suit and toiletry kits.

I contacted SQ today to ask about amenity kits on this flight, which I'm taking next month. This is their reply:
With regards to your query, kindly note that sleeper suits and toiletry kits will not be provided on flight SQ 12 from Singapore to Tokyo. However, soft terry-cloth socks and soft eyeshades will be available for the flight, with slippers as an alternative to the socks.
I note on the website as well that no mention is made of this flight being an exception to the rule about amenity kits and PJs being offered only on flights of a certain duration. Does anyone who has flown on SQ12 recently have any updates?
