I boarded SQ23 on Feb 4th from NY. I was very disappointed with the meal (only two gas station quality meals), seat and overall service of the flight. There was no priority boarding for premium economy and no priority for baggage handling as well. On the return flight, my baggage got delayed to reach the carousal and I missed my connection flight.
You also have the option of taking the Original longest flight SQ21 from EWR. If you did the research on prices towards the region the lowest you can actually get on both is a EWR/JFK-MNL via SIN for $863.
Thank you for this! We just booked our trip for 2024… hopefully everything goes back to normal standard 😅 but I will be sure to pack extra snacks for 19hrs! 😸😸
Had a similar experience - snack was a small bag of nuts, and meal did not meet expectations - small portion - all else was great! Taking it again in May '23 and will bring food this time
Thank you! It's just been really hard to find time to travel and edit the footage because of work but I'm hoping to have some time this week to make some videos
@@InnocentGyal it was pretty good, very comfortable, Im about 6 feet tall and it gives me enough leg space to move around, food is also great.. but would I do it again? Perhaps no, I would rather do a layover somewhere to refresh my mind... I would say the best economy class would go with Etihad.. you really get enough ample space as well since asian airlines seat tend to be on the smaller side but overall im satisfied with their services. SQ is the best asian airline, they are in the number 1 ranking out of many best airlines...
@vincentvanderbilt5598 thanks so much for replying! I'll probably take your advice with Ethiad for one of the ways and I've been trying to see how best to organize a layover to re-acclimate to time when returning home to NY.
Thank you for staying around! It has been really hard to find time to edit videos because of my job but I'm trying to put an effort in it these few months.
I agreed with you that SQ meal is getting smaller and not as sumptuous as before. Hopefully they will adjust back to pre-covid level as air traffic start to pick up now.
Interesting that the catering was so minimal despite the long flight time. I have experienced PE on Singapore and don't rate it against other airlines such as Virgin, United, Air New Zealand and Emirates - all are pricey post covid. Wishing you safe and happy travels in 2023. Hello from London, UK : - )
I noticed the same when it came to food quantity on other SQ flights internationally recently. They don't even have the side salad and cakes like they used to.
Singapore Airlines Premium Economy from my experience has been great, but if you were to compare it with other products, it really does feel underwhelming (especially the soft product). I also really don’t like the catering structure on their ultra-long haul flights, it’s just not enough food.
@@haresh911 they actually ran out of cup noodles on this flight which meant that a fair amount of passengers were asking. A person can only eat so many bags of chips.
Wow! What a long flight! 18 hours flight? That’s too long!! It’s a very long flight. I bet you will be very tired. You need get some sleep soon. Next time you bring extra foods from concessions at airport or bring your own snacks from home.
Inflation? No it is not. They becoming stingy with portion while raising airfare. I have flown them in all class and year after year the portion is getting smaller even on business class. They don't even give you an amenity bag on business class.
Generally the turbulence is around Japan it seems like it is related to the jet stream. This is especially true on flights back to the US from Asia as I have always encountered turbulence around that area.
Forgot they swapped this to JFK instead of Newark. Then again, who would want to take the worlds longest light and end up in New Jersey haha I know, old joke is old
A plane is not defined as a legally public space. Airlines are within their rights to ask for no filming. We all love youtubers, but sometimes they are a little self-centered :)
I would say that most airports are also built earlier than airports in Asia and because of expense and politics in the US renovating is always a hassle fraught with delays. The new LGA terminal is quite nice and O'Hare's terminals 1 and 3 are comfortable and have great views of the runways and tarmac. But yes compared to some Asian airports they are not as grand or clean.
@@AsiaTravels Americans are suckers and get screwed by politicians on these big projects . The corruption by politicians and unions and cronies is so rampant. I mean just look how long it took to build the freedom tower in NYC and compare that to Dubai or even some Chinese cities .. China was able to build two mega cities from nothing in the time NY took to be one building . Unreal
I flew NYC to BKK on Singapore Airlines Premium Economy (via Singapore) on March 6th, 2024. Very disappointing. It is basically an economy experience with better seats. The food was nothing exceptional (economy style food), no water in the sink bathrooms at the back of the plane to wash your hands, my TV display stopped working 4 hours into the 19 hour flight, I paid extra for a exit seat, but the seat was cramped and no storage room. Nobody could access the internet because of a server error, eventually I got access through a free voucher the head flight attendant gave me. The onboard staff were fine, but more focused on getting everyone asleep so they would have nothing to do. I have traveled Premium on United, Delta and Emirates, Singapore was such a let down. Their product is NOT recommended, overpriced and nothing special.
Thanks for your comments, I will not fly Singapore air. I plan to fly Emirate on Premium class and Business to Bangkok in the future, but I don’t know is it worthy the price yet? Because I would like to fly the jumbo jet A380
@@sunsetusa343 I have flown with Emirates Premium and Business on the A380 and they are excellent. I got an upgrade once to first class and I was totally spoiled. On some airlines, the premium fare is now almost the same as the business class fare. As always, if you are buying a business calls ticket, do not use the popular travel web sites, call an agent to get the best price to companies like Skyluxtravel, arangrant, travelbusinessclass etc. If you are buying direct online you are paying too much as the discounts are not online.
Awesome - thanks for sharing. I'm excited to take this when i fly back to SG in May 2023.
Hope you enjoy it!
Fantastic video and loved the images you captured and the captions. Well done!
Thank you for your feedback!
Splendid flight video.SIA is famous for these kind of long flights.
I Like The Product Premium Economy.Happy New Year.I Love A350.Great Work
Wow welcome back! Always loved your EVA videos
Thank you! I will have an EVA Air trip report later but it's been hard to find time to edit videos
Thnks for sharing your flight experience. Looking forward more from you👍👍👍

I feel the same. Premium eco treat as eco on non stop flight.

Trying to get a preview of my SQ21 flight in May. Really not sure what to expect, but I hear SA is the best. We’ll see - first time to SE Asia.
Good to have you back on TH-cam!
Thank you for watching too!

Have fun! Don't forget a good pair of headphones.
Glad to see a new post from you! Love all of your videos

Great review on the SIA ULR flight! I would like to try it one day. Welcome back, it’s been awhile since your last upload.
Thank you! It's just been really hard to find time to travel and edit the footage because of work but I'm hoping to have some time this week to make some videos
Ill be taking this flight as well in late April to Denpasar from NYC
Me too
How was the flight?

I found it interesting that if you take the route to EWR where you will depart and arrive from there, its much cheaper
It varies i think. I actually would have preferred EWR based on we live but it was much more expensive and didn't have any seats for redemption
Glad to see you back! Hope to see more from you soon! 😁
Thank you! I am hopeful to have more time to edit videos these few days.
Glad to see you back! It has been awhile. Stay healthy and GIVE US MORE!!!!!!

Finally a new trip review welcome back cheers 🥂
I agreed with you that SQ meal is getting smaller and not as sumptuous as before. Hopefully they will adjust back to pre-covid level as air traffic start to pick up now.
Their passengers numbers look good and hopefully they will start adding more items to their inflight service.

Yeah unfortunately ticket prices are crazy nowadays. Emirates PE seems really nice. Thank you and enjoy your travels!
I noticed the same when it came to food quantity on other SQ flights internationally recently. They don't even have the side salad and cakes like they used to.
Yeah I found my qatar economy class meals to be more filling
Finally you remember your password😭
It's just been really hard finding time to edit videos unfortunately :(
That takeoff roll is loooooong
damn your back!!
Thank you for sticking around!
Welcome back :D

you could always ask though. they offer cup noodles and other snacks onboard too, free flow. its not their fault that you’re hungry
@@haresh911 they actually ran out of cup noodles on this flight which meant that a fair amount of passengers were asking. A person can only eat so many bags of chips.
@@AsiaTravels They ran out of bottle water on my flight. I have just got back on Mar 17.I will not take premium eco on SQ non stop flight again.
How'd you get such clear footage out the window without any glare from inside the cabin.
I just stick the lens right up to the window
12:32 Was that a cat?
Do we still wearing a mask on the plane?
What's a "coil whine ?" Lol. I'm taking this flight in April, on my way to Phuket.
It's like a high pitch electrical noise. It became very noticeable on this particular flight
Did you ask if they had snacks or a ramen soup or something during the flight?
Yeah they ran out of cup noodles unfortunately
@@AsiaTravels Good to know for my children who will be doing that flight soon but strange that they ran out!!
How long was the Flight?
Wow! What a long flight! 18 hours flight? That’s too long!! It’s a very long flight. I bet you will be very tired. You need get some sleep soon. Next time you bring extra foods from concessions at airport or bring your own snacks from home.
Hagen Daz ice cream also was served in air china economy class JFK to Beijing. SQ should do better 🤣 18 hours + should have 3 proper meals i think.
Meals are smaller because of inflation. Things are changing little by little.
Inflation? No it is not. They becoming stingy with portion while raising airfare. I have flown them in all class and year after year the portion is getting smaller even on business class. They don't even give you an amenity bag on business class.
Still subscribed woot! 😎
Thank you for staying patient!
How many baggage we get?
How long it records
Isnit 23x2 baggage?
Are there a lot of turbulence on this route? :)
Generally the turbulence is around Japan it seems like it is related to the jet stream. This is especially true on flights back to the US from Asia as I have always encountered turbulence around that area.
How is the food
Only 150 people, they should use ERJ 190 to fly the route lol
ERJ 190 XULR
Was the flight full?
it was full in premium economy, not sure about business
@@AsiaTravels
Amazing! I’m baffled at so many affording the ticket price that I’ve paid X 96 people.
People who saw the A380 6:55
Forgot they swapped this to JFK instead of Newark. Then again, who would want to take the worlds longest light and end up in New Jersey haha
I know, old joke is old
They actually have two ULR routes to NYC. SQ21 is from EWR and SQ23 from JFK.
Ah hell no on flight that long.
looks like a pretty bad premium economy product 2 , 4 , 2 is weak

All US airports are on a 3rd world level .. what crap they are ..

Hard to believe since it's always voted the best airline
@@stevend481 Voted by whom? The Australian airline Skyrax magazine/web site? Think about that for a bit. Lol. Clue. Advertising.
Is the seat comfortable. How many can luggages 🧳 can check in (kg)?
Ich verstehe nicht. Was ist “coil whine”? Grüße aus Australien. Tschüss.
