ALONE in Singapore Airlines First Class *To New York*

- Join me inside one of the worlds MOST exclusive First Class cabins. And what’s more, I have it all to myself today!
With just one row of First Class onboard their Boeing 777, and with tickets costing North of $8,000 this is a rare insight into how the 1% fly. As with all my trip reports, I’ll be experiencing everything from the ground service to onboard food such as Caviar and steak along with their famous Chicken Satay. We’ll get the bed made up, and as we have access to the entire cabin experience the variety of different seating options.
Todays flight is unique as it’s what’s called a 5th Freedom flight. This means that we’re not flying to Singapore, but rather on their Frankfurt - New York route. This is especially useful at present, as entry into Singapore is quite the challenge. Let me know what you think down below, but this has go to be one of my favourite review flights i've taken to date.

Oh man, this experience is the DEFINITION of "luxury". Even watching this video felt like a luxury.
Underrated connent
never thought I'd see you here, Skul!
I flew Singapore airlines from London to Singapore in coach and I was impressed flying economy!!! Not surprising to see the First Class experience. This should be the blueprint for all other airlines.
It used to be
Def not anymore. I switched to Emirates years ago and like them much better. But more recently I flew with Qatar Airways and they were even better!
I also knew multiple people who worked for SG Airlines as stewards/stewardesses and they get treated like trash. One friend badly damaged ligaments in her knee during a tumble during turbulence during a flight and another went down with appendicitis during a flight and both had to be hospitalized and undergo surgery. Both were told that they would not be granted leave and unless they returned to their scheduled flights, they should consider themselves fired. Needless to say, they chose to not risk death/permanent disability and proceeded to go ahead with surgeries.
@@juliemcgugan1244 Never. flown SIA but Emirates business class is amazing and the bar atmosphere was so much fun and food is plentiful.
Qatar, Etihad, Cathay, SIA, Emirates anytime better than other airlines
@@kspradeep8397 I flew Cathay from Vancouver to Hong Kong. Starve-Air -- I have never been so hungry in my life.
For season 2, you should explore more of the underrated Asian carriers's business products such as Korean Air's apex suites and Eva's royal laurel class
Gotta agree with this.
Eva's business class is very nice and they also give out great pjs
I’d definitely be interested to see that!
Thanks for watching :) And absolutely - it's on the list. The issue for much of Asia has been able to physically fly into these countries, hopefully this will change in 2022.
@@Trektrendy I think ICN allows you to do the same turnaround as you did at HND for your ANA vid. Anyways, best of luck and excited for the content on season 2!
A wee little bear to watch over you while you sleep! What a sweet touch. That flight looked amazing.
I actually found myself totally emersed watching this. I fully appreciate I am watching this post on a big screen, but this young man's temperament gentlemanly mannerism and the way he presents these reviews really are quite addictive. I have rarely traveled 1st/business class, but I am not sure if I will accept anything less when we book our next holiday because of Trek Trendy.
Don't break your bank because of some youtube vid lol. Spend more at your actual destination, not your transport method lol
@@scholaroftheworldalternatehist but it would be worth it like a 18 hour flight. Not for a short flight though
One of the reasons why he even makes videos is so that flyers and viewers can decide what airline and destinations that they can fly. So it isn’t stupid , he’s actually a lot of help.
@@scholaroftheworldalternatehist his choice
Great review! I have always thought that SQ's 5th freedom flights between JFK and Europe were a little known secret. They used to have a late night departure from JFK to LHR using a 747. I do miss the " Queen of the Skies" 😪. This was such a pleasant reminder of how much I love SQ. They are my all time favorite airline. The comfortable seats and delicious menu choices are always appreciated but what really sets them apart is their outstanding flight attendants. It's so nice to have FA's who seem to love their jobs and make their passengers feel so welcome. Take care and have a pleasant and rewarding week.
Lies again? Football Club
Sleeping with a mask on for 8k is a bit much
8k to lay down? ummmmmm,no
For season 2 I really wanna see some South American Airlines! Such as Avianca, LATAM, Azul, etc.
Hi Trek Trendy, I would choose the Singapore chicken satay, cauliflower cream soup although that is a very tough one as the caviar would suffice as well. For the main I would chose grilled pork belly as I love eating all kinds of pork. And finally I would polish off the opera cake. This was a hard choice, albeit one I have to make quite frequently (as I am very rich and fly first class a lot). This was an amazing video! I thoroughly enjoyed watching throughout, every second was worthwhile and captured me.
(Edit) When you try double, may I come with?

*Dude* : Sorry chef, but the steak is well done
*Chef* : You're welcome sir, its always nice to receive compliments from our passengers
*Dude* : No no you misunderstood me.. its well done!
*Chef* : Ahh now youre making me blushing
😁😁
🤣🤣🤣 i know what you mean 😅
A brilliant start to season 2 and that looked like a real treat of a flight. What an experience, great work Will!!
Looks great! FRA-JFK with Singapore is probably one of the best fifth freedom flights one can take.
You literally ripped off @Holden Tudiks' other comment lol
This really does look like the best first class!!! Amazing views of New York!
Brilliant! Glad the Singapore FA's lived up to their reputation 💜
I had met one girl not naming names but she was in Vancouver and wanted to see my home town of Edmonton, so she flew up and I toured her around , West Ed mall, the museum, and my old hangouts this was 2003-2004 she retired in 2010
Wow, you were so lucky to have the second servings of caviar! Thank you for showing the airlines of my country to the world!
I flew the slightly older First Class from Barcelona to Singapore maybe 7 years ago. Still one of the best flights. Singapore Air is still one of my favourite airlines and will do the transit from Malaysia through Singapore for my long haul flights.
Man I miss flying on SQ, hopefully this September to see the F1 race 🏎 😋
That's one high-society teddy bear! 🐻
I thought the food was amazing 😉. Great report will.
Since I was a kid (now am in my sixties), I flew on Singapore airline and many other airlines due to my Dad's job. Singapore always at top of my fave airlines. And no, I am not a Singaporean 😄
*“I can’t believe the amount of room I have.”*
You paid 8,000 DOLLARS for a flight, did you expect something less?? Yes, it's a long flight, but damn that’s alot of money to most people.
Looks great! FRA-JFK with Singapore is probably one of the best fifth freedom flights one can take
@Holden Tudiks, sorry to ask but is that your actual name or are you a troll
@@antjuanh9086 You don't know the amount of bullying I've got so far as this is my actual name, no joke. Got a court date to change my entire name later this year, though.
@@holdentudiks9777 I am so sorry for you, man. Wish we can get @Trek Trendy 's attention so he can know that you're not a troll
@T This is my "more professional" email for applications and stuff but when first logging into youtube with your gmail, it apparently creates your youtube channel then and there. I just pressed ok to everything and realized afterwards and it turns out you can't change your channel name.
@@holdentudiks9777 You can change your youtube channel name but not gmail.
Awesome review! Is the seat that much better than business? Doesn’t look like as much of a step up unlike their A380s. Thanks for the great content! Safe travels❤️
During Covid a plane I was on had less than 15 people on the whole plane, not including flight crew. Having the whole row to myself is probably as close to this as I’ll ever get lol
I was once on a Qatar airways flight from London to Kuwait, years before the pandemic, and I guess it was really only running as a positioning flight because there were more flight attendants than passengers in the economy section. I can't remember the plane type, but it was a wide body with five seats across in the middle, so all of us just picked a row and slept lying across them. Very comfy place to sleep honestly!
How do you handle that kind of turbulence? I'm embarrassed to say I'm absolutely terrified of it after a bad bout over the Atlantic once, and it makes most flights more anxiety-inducing than enjoyable!
Get your doctor to prescribe an appropriate sedative, and remind yourself that turbulence is just potholes in the sky!
When they are flying to my destination I use Singapore Air exclusively. Great carrier, top quality crews and very clean well maintained aircraft.
SQ is my fav. First Class round trip NYC to Frankfurt. Always “Book -the- Cook” before traveling. This vlogger missed out.
I don't know how you managed that much champagne and still walked around, I'd be absolutely hammered 😂
Hi could you tell us how you pay for these flight, so flight you booked through miles but with Singapore,how do you do it?
18 seconds in and it’s already a belter this is why ur the best reviewer on here will! Big love bro ❤️❤️
sleeping with a facemask ? no thanks :)
Thoroughly enjoyed your review, I really feel like I’m on there watching you and one day I just may if I keep saving 😉 however you are hilarious drinking all that fab champers, eating first class food, then going through bad turbulence, I even felt sick watching you 😂 but it didn’t look like it affected you at all!! Cheers 🥂
Alone in a cabin … wearing a mask 🤦🏼♂️ what is wrong with you?
Oh bless you Andy, have you not flown in 2 years? Airlines do not let you ‘maskless’ even if the cabin is empty.
Quite funny, i had a dream of sneaking into first class last night 😂
those invisible people + airline attendant who gets covid swabbed pre-shift, every shift, won't give him covid, that's for sure.
If you're the only one in first class you shouldn't need to wear a mask. Plus the masks don't work anyways. Getting tired of watching videos w/ masks.
How many sponsors did you get to pay for your flight??? Lol, $8,000 is a lot of money but on a long flight it would be well worth it, no doubt!!!!!
Interesting, don't have physical menus, but hand you a frequently used tablet - presume this is to cut printing costs and nothing to do with covid? Great report.. look forward to the next...
I thought it was an odd thing to do. Ah yes very valid point there! Anyway thanks for watching :)
Good show, just one problem, can’t understand what your saying with the effing mask on.
Flying is not worth getting a dangerous, toxic jab. And those nuts were mostly cashews.
When flying with SIA it has to be their Singapore Sling. I miss it.
Still waiting for LOT Airlines review. 👀
With all the first class/business class you travel you have no class at all.
awesome video. I am heading to Vegas in September, flying from Edinburgh, any suggestions as to who i should fly with and should i pay for business class?
The photo shows someone all alone and lying in bed with a mask on. Seems odd. Must be a very dirty place.
You're definitely right with singapore being very hard to access. I live in singapore as an expat and only just managed to fly back home to the uk after well over 2 years. Singapore were briefly offering VTL flights, so vaccinated travel lane flights without stay home notices on arrival, but because of cases spiking they shut down those flights again. So pretty much it is, or was, just barely doable to get in and out of SG. Really hoping we open up again
When my family moved out of SG in Dec of 2020, we managed to get out before any of that happened! So great up we made it as we were traveling with dogs, so it would have been even more difficult. SG was ‘green’ back then, according to the country we were moving to and after being unable to travel through Germany (spiking cases and the airline kept cancelling the flights and moving us to another, repeatedly, as there weren’t enough people flying.) In the end, we changed to Qatar Airways and flew through Doha which was also on Cyprus’ green list and soon after turned red, like Singapore. We were so lucky the stars aligned for us!
Well, everything is nice and beautiful and roomy and what else. However, somebody please explain to me why paying $ 8000.00 for that. It does not matter which airline, it's always a rip off.
That looks like a delightful flight. For the next season I'd love to see more budget flight reviews. (within Japan for example)
Take cheaper ticket and buy yourself a woman
An awesome experience indeed! Do you, while in-flight or post-flight express your gratitude to FAs personally?
Money Talks on Earth but Not in HEAVEN or After Life !
What a shame about that steak.
He’s paying so much for each flight he can’t afford to change the NASA sweatshirt 💖
$8k ticket = $1k per hour... are you rich, how do you pay for this?
Yes, all by yourself....& you have your mask on while you sleep.
How Fantastic!
Welcome to 2022. You cannot fly without a mask, it seems you’ve not flown for a few years 🤷🏼♂️
When they provide pj's do you keep them or do they clean and reuse them?
I hate flying, I hate travelling over countries, I hate airports
Living up to your name then 🤣
Half a dollar's worth of Valium knocks you out, then you wake up at your destination ready to go, having saved thousands.
You can also not go anywhere, saves a lot of money
$8000 is 1 years worth of mortgage for me
Absolutely great video and I can’t wait to fly them this summer in first….. great info.
Best steak I’ve ever had in the sky was surprisingly served by American Airlines, in 2016 business class departing from Sydney Australia. Cooked perfectly medium rare, sensational eye fillet.
Wonderful job as always Will ! I always love videos about fifth freedom routes😎👍🏻
The A350 is a great plane - better than the 777 and 787.
But when I go to Singapore, it MUST BE BUSINESS CLASS ON THE A380.
The A380 makes everything else look like economy.
It where did you get that much money to pay for your Luxury Lavish life style ?
Are you a millionaire?
Yeah, what a showoff!
When I was a child, I remember flying Singapore and we were in economy but the flight attendants were SOO nice I loved my experience. Another fond memory was while of Japan Airlines, flying from Japan to Malaysia and the flight attendants kept giving me snacks. I had Pocky, wafer ice cream sandwiches, and got one of those toy airplanes you could build. I would collect them every time I flew with JAL. Would love a review if you haven't done one already!
I ho[e you don't fall asleep with your mask on.
Will your content is top tier, you deserve more subscribers
I appreciate that Ed, thanks so much for watching :)
As usual, it is such an experience to travel vicariously with you. Top notch caviar is not something I've experienced often but I relish it when the opportunity arises. Keep us the good work and thank you, thank you, thank you.
Singapore Airlines A380 First Class is really what EVERYBODY wants to try. Maybe you should, too! Great video as always
More like, what many would hope to try( not everyone have more than 9,000 dollars)
@T well that two, so is just a dream
@@sergiolaurencio7534 A lot of people just use points. I think it’s 125K KrisFlyer points to fly in the new suites.
@@bingbong7777 Points are arguably the best way to upgrade
Singapore airline is in my bucket list, will definitely try their first class
Today we are flying with Singapore airlines pliz enjoy seat back
Maybe someday I’ll get to fly on SQ and have an amazing experience. For now unfortunately it will be American Airlines. Thanks for taking us along on your journey Mr. Trendy!❤️👍✈️
You deserve a million subscribers as soon as possible! Great video!
I was lucky enough to fly in Suites on Singapore Airlines a couple of years ago. Had the whole A380 cabin to myself for 13hrs.
One of the best experiences on a plane, ever. Will be going back very soon.
"Yes, I'm aware that I'm an idiot".
I'll keep my comments to myself :).
Wait until July and do its first suite on the same route . They are getting their A380 back
crazy that there are starving people all over the world.
Qantas is flying back to DFW from SYD, review them on a 16 hour flight???
Review garuda Indonesia
Hey! I really like your videos. Fun fact, I used to work for Lufthansa previously and I actually purchased the automated coffee machines for them! Cheers
still with the stupid masks
Lol. Play stupid games pay stupid prices....if he is from New York he surely voted democrats.
I want to fly that first class so I can get one of those teddy bears 😂
How did you sleep with that mask on?
looks like COVID bed to me!
hahahah indeed! Sheeple! ;D ;D ;D
Good evening beautiful I've been waiting all day for your video love your Channel 🥰🤗🥰
Fabulous video, you are my bedtime treat.
So envious! One day....x
Great start to my birthday with a video of Trek Trendy :D I also forgot to subscribe after watching all your videos
8000 ? Catch me dead paying that much
I'm fairly new to ur channel and just starting to do some traveling. This is probably a silly question but have u ever flown SAS business class?
I took that flight 3 years ago and was very excited to fly in a Singapore A380 Suite - except it was the old layout, with 12 suites rather than the current 6. Don‘t get me wrong, it was still very special, but I had flown the old layout before. In the end, it didn’t matter because I overdid the red wine a bit and ended up sleeping in the chair rather than on the bed.
This FRA - NY flight from SQ is not a standard route for the airline (it‘s an extension of the SG - FRA flight) which means their pricing is VERY competitive. Business class round trip should cost you around €2,000, which is around half of what you would pay on Lufthansa or Swiss (pre-pandemic). I used miles to upgrade one way, meaning the first class experience came in just above the price for a round trip premium economy ticket. I‘m hoping to do it again later this year.
Whilst bursting with flavor
Please make a video of singapore airlines a380 long haul first class flight
Would the bed fit a 6'3" male?
you should try Thai 747 individual middle suite
I hope someday I can love something like you love caviar
😲 my flight ✈️ from Hawaii back to the mainland was like sitting on a 5 gallon bucket 🪣 upside down haha
Singapore flights seem incredible
That bed looked so comfortable!! I am not a caviar fan, but your enthusiasm was enjoyable to watch while lying in bed flanked by my doggies! I really enjoy your videos-you are by far the best airline reviewer! Cheers from Chicago!
P. S. That flight crew seemed fantastic… loved the personalized note, but for $8K, it should have been written in 14 karat gold!! 😂
That looked stunning, great suite, superb food and service. I think the pj's look rather fetching on you.....
Just by watching I can really feel the genuity of their 1st class onboard services...agree with the 9/10
