Nagoya on SIA's NEW A330 Business Class!

[HUGE AL]

But.............


no F on the A330. Are you sure? Maybe better to stick to what you know and go NGO-NRT-SIN in F

Hmmm...yeah...you might be right...

You do know that NGO-NRT is not an easy flight. Bullet Train, yes.

I totally love the place and am glad SQ's A330 is now flying there! Could make life a lot easier on me to finally have NGO as an option.

...to do Nagoya properly, I think more than a day is required - bear in mind that Toyota town is also not too far away from Nagoya and worth a visit.

I've found Nagoya to grow on me to become one of my favourite cities in Japan the second time I went there - and its beauty comes out if a local Nagoyan is able to show you the city for what it is.

And yama-chan rocks.

Hahahaha I was just about to add a Yama-chan comment! I miss those chicken wings!

Add the Aquarium and you're already talking a very long day! Then there's: Arimatsu Narumi Shibori Kaikan, Atsuta Jingu Shrine, Nagoya Castle, Noritake Garden, Tokugawa Art Museum, etc. Add the killer restaurants and bars and you've got a week EASY!

Shinjuku in Tokyo is supposed to be the busiest station.
Nagoya is the largest by floor area ( the whole complex, incl shopping concourse etc).

I wonder if you could use proper english, instead of shortcut english/singlish. Not everyone here could understand what you are talking about.

By the way, nice pics..
