- It was a bit of a mixed bag on this Singapore Airlines Business Class 787-10 Dreamliner flight from Singapore to Colombo, Sri Lanka!

I love the casuality of those videos. This channel is underated. Turkish Airlines has the exact same seats on their 787s and 350s.
Yes and it's utterly hated there too and no other airline on the planet bothered to install those crap seats
The seats are on the regional services. Their international services have a much better seat.
The BEST and MOST GENUINE flight review video ever. No need for tacky intro. You’re awesome!
Thanks but are you saying the intro is tacky LOL
Haha I mean your intro is very straight forward and good unlike some other “tacky” ones 😆
I recently flew from Melbourne to Tokyo and return in business. Interestingly the Melb - Singapore leg features the long haul business class seats which are much bigger. The Singapore to Haneda leg was these smaller seats. I didn't mind them, but agree they are a little claustrophobic. The crew and service were top level
Flew Business Class (A350) on SIN-EWR 18 hour flight. It was amazing. Not just the incredible seat, but the service too! Singapore Airlines is my favorite.
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome. I'm flying that route next week any tips to share?
@@vikneshvaran wear comfortable clothes, and compression socks. Also keep hydrated. The time goes faster than you’d expect. Have fun!
@@travellinman382 thanks!
Ha ha well it should be amazing for the same price as a used car 😂
The carpet is to absorb the noise so the airport is very quiet and peaceful.
it's a terrible trade off.
@@adeafningsilence have you been to Changi?
@@JJ-vy2rh many times to my detriment
trust me working in NRT airport with hard floors Changi carpet is a dream on the feet and it's always so clean!
The entire of Changi airport and you find the goods lift 😂 - awesome vid tho
I neglected to mention that the escalator was broken 😂😂
😂 you make it sound like there was only one
I love Singapore airlines especially the 350s between SYD and SIN but it’s really cool to see you fly them for the first time
That is the regional Business Class for short and middle range flights, it is awesome, in Europe you just get Economy seats in business class on these trips with and empty middle seat. In the US you get a recliner seat and that's it. SIA offers a fully flat bed with aisle access, clearly the best regional business class in the world.
babe wake up a new flight formula video dropped 🤩
Lfg
The seat on the 8+ hour flights is really awesome. Super wide and comfortable. Best seat I’ve experienced on any airline. I’m 6ft 5. The < 8 hr seat really sucks especially for anyone over 6ft.
Love your work mate! The 787 Regional Seat definitely isn't their best, and the T2 lounge is awful, luckily the crew and food always makes up for it! Ive flown all their seats and the 787 is definitely the bottom! Keep up the good work!
the carpet is the best thing to cancel the noise. and it is nice to walk on it.
Im a new fan. Ur reviews are funny genuine and real. I like seeing that u don’t mind giving a few jabs while still acknowledging the positives. Keep it up!
Honestly, Flight formula is better than all aviation channels, seems the most legit.
Always been a class act for me since the late 1980s
Econ executive economy raffles business and First. Inaugural flights on the A380 being the most fun.
You kids have a lot to catch up on!
The best SQ business seat is on the A380. The 777/350 longhaul seat version is wonderfully wide but you have to lie at an angle to get your feet into the door cubby, and the bed is really hard. The regional seat you flew is awful. The reader is also used to pay for on board duty free I think. Food and service always great. Love your work. Funny and a bit weird.
One thing: Please blur other passengers faces in both the lounges and onboard. Inside the terminal is fine.
This is vlogging etiquette 101 and a matter of Singaporean law.
Singpore Airlines is covered by Singaporean law. Images are considered personal data under Singapore's PDPA, which also has a fairly thorough section about properly obtaining consent and making it clear individuals need to be able to withdraw consent at any point. By not bluring their images, you infringe upon their rights under Singaporean law. Private Lounges and planes are not Public spaces.
I would hate for you to be arrested on a trip via Singapore. Be safe, be careful and cover your arse.
Smart move to move yourself to T3 in Changi to enjoy a better lounge. T2 has a lot of memories for me as I've frequented flying SIA growing up, but I never visited their lounge ever as the things you can do in the main terminal back then were are plenty!
This is their regional-medium haul hard product. Flew it from Dubai to Singapore. Their long haul seat is by far better but for a regional product, it's still amazing. Turkish airlines uses the same seat on their long haul flights. The differentiator on SQ is always the crew. By far the best.
I love your reviews, Simon. So down to earth and interesting. Not pretentious at all and great content!! When does your Emirates review drop and what’s the route/equipment? Looking forward to that! And I’m on SQ soon too!
Thanks, Emirates is still a few videos away!
I like your videos man. I just flew their 777-300 business class and I think you would have liked the seat there better. No seat is perfect, but I loved it and highly rec to everyone now.
Hey man great video. Interestingly, The 787-10 was a recent deployment (when I say recent, I mean March 2023) for the SIN-CMB route. Prior to this it was operated by the A350 for a couple of years.
If you’re interested, you could check out the comprehensive economy class review that I did for this same sector, available on my channel.
Funnily, just about every SQ aircraft has operated to CMB at some point (except the A388 of course)
As always, keep em coming big man!
I hate those automated check-in kiosks, much prefer the manned desks !!!
Gotta say the first class section of the T2 lounge is really good 😊
My first ever business class flight was exactly on these seats on a SQ a350. I was an international student going to Sydney and used my savings to upgrade for 500$ USD on the first leg of the flight 😂 people might bash me for it, but as an avgeek I couldn’t help myself but experience it cuz I’ve been watching about aviation and all the luxuries with it since the age of 5. Money well spent for me and definitely motivated me to make a living to fly business/first regularly. 😅
But awesome video man. I love your videos so much and I’m surprised you have so little subscribers compared to the quality of the content you deliver. Definitely can see you blow up in the future ❤ keep it up.
Definitely worth it for $500USD! Thanks for your kind words!
I agree with the seat situation, I flew the a350 Sing-Syd regional and it was cramped. Shame, everything else was world class.
I like to be checked in by staff too 😂 just enjoy the human touch 😅
I watch so many travel videos. Yours are so unique. It's like your family and your telling me stuff you wouldn't say out loud. I love it.
Wow, thank you! That means a lot 🫶
Great video thanks for sharing! What equipment do you use to film?
Singapore airline business class is great the only problem o had encounter is that when you turn your seat into bed the foothold area is too small making sleeping very hard
You pretty much nailed my thoughts on Singapore Airlines. Phenomenal staff, service, food and drink. Lounges can be hit and miss and the hard product is a bit of a let down.
Still a world class airline.
Go try the A350.. even the economy class is worthy of a review. I flew Singapore to Copenhagen and it was awesome
“The top is like the top of a cheesecake. And the bottom is like… the bottom of a cheesecake” 🤣🤣
Could you please make a video breaking down how you leverage credit cards to gain points, benefits and access to lounges? that would be so insightful. currently trying to get my head into this game but I've experienced several migranes thus far.
Im pretty sure the “credit card payment reader” is actually just the NFC tag, you can tap your phone from the app and upload your playlist or reconnect to where you were up to in a movie or show from a previous flight. But also, love the video and all the others 😊
I think that’s what the whole KrisFlyer log in on the screens about but you might be onto something!
Another great review, Simon! SQ biz is definitely not the best, there may be some premium materials here and there but it really depends on luck to meet crews that truly put passengers in their heart. In my experience the Taiwanese China Airlines has the best crew and industry-leading cabin product.
Thanks for sharing!
you can buy duty-free things on flights (bottles, of alc., jewelry, make-up, etc.) so I reckon that's what the card reader is there for ;P just a guess though since I've never flown business on Singapore airlines
Great review - fly SQ often, think you'd have a better dining experience on a long haul. Why no chicken satay?!
Those lounges in T2 are new, just bad, old doesn't mean bad just like new isn't always good. You just ended up in the wrong lounge !!! But anywyay, SQ lounges aren't great... Bellini is amazing.
Hey! Hopefully you can try STARLUX Airlines based out of Taiwan. Safe flying!
Love the Pistachio Bavarois stream of consciousness. 😂
Cracking review. Am flying SQ regional J later this year, so thanks in advance for the tips!
Man's video's keep getting better and better each time he posts
Hahaha thanks 🙏
Great look at the SQ B787-10 experience. The seat is definitely the weak point. You`re not alone in having never flown SQ previously. To this day SQ is somehow one airline I`ve not yet experienced either despite having flown with more than thirty airlines.
Please show us the menu so we can see what they offer. And try order 2-3 things and see what they say
Thanks for the lounge heads up!
why do i feel like i am always at the exact place you are but a week earlier or later
singapore kuala lumpur bali more singapore(SELETARRR) Hong kong and LA
Well you are A321 XLR, where else would you be? 😂
Love the videos mate👍
I like this video so much ! Especially the part of stretching when sleeping!
The seat genuinely does look rammed in there, with the dimming buttons being blocked and all... Unique Choice on SQs end this one!
The card reader is if you want to buy from the Krisshop
Did I miss the amenities kit?
Sq unfortunately does not have amenities kits
The contactless payment in the seat cubby is for duty free purchases.
24 times we’ve flown business class from london to Singapore there the best airline in the world we wouldn’t travel with anyone else…..we’re off to Singapore at Christmas with once again Singapore airlines ❤
Was ready for the wait , the memes are the crown . Fav
First time seeing your channel, like the vibes. Subbed
Awesome, thank you!
Finally my weekly fix is here!
I love flying business as always❤especially long hours flights
Dude you gotta do your homework before wasting all that time in T2 lounge.... not to mention doing self check-in while in Business Class.
Just discovered your channel. Great vids mate. Keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
Hey mate what points earning card do you use, t3 is where most of the Singapore flights leave from. At least with book the cook you always get your choice
Ahh I’ve got a few, ANZ, CommBank, AMEX, I would really recommend them, they’re just the ones I currently have in rotation.
Love your flight report!
Cheers!
“ it’s a 3 hour flight dunno why the guy is losing his shit ( ad lib) ” mate- can’t get more Aussie than that ❤
Do yourself a favour and join Kris's flyer, especially the joints' accumulation of Virgin points as well Changi is huge and a bit more of preplanning and research would have helped you a lot. Also Scoot miles redemptions interchange etc is a winner with SIA . never had aproblem with their food . Although in cattle class EVA air beats them hands down 7 out ten for this one only because of your lac of situational awareness . PMSL at the goods lift (been there done that myself) spot on abot 73 lounges I always go for th elonger time between flight connection in changi and always enjoyable
goods lift was because of the escalator being broken but OK
Hi, what camera are you using that turn itself. Haha
Nice video, I was gonna ask who you were talking to :D
Rome to Singapore business class is well below par - I took a flight from FCO to Singapore last year. Hard seat-beds, no sleep at all, food was just so-so. Would not take their business class offering again & in fact, am about to book Qatar for this year's long haul flight.
I now avoid Changi airport because the carpet makes me dizzy. I thought it was just me
What camera is he using?
Love you and your vids m8
Have you flown EK, EY or QR?

fr best aviation channel
Utter luxury and comfort hospitality and all services next time prefer to to go from this Singapore flight ✈️🛫
card reader is for in flight shopping
mevvah, seru banget penerbangan bersama Singapore Airlines 🎉
0:26 Is the nose cone on that 787 held by duct tape?
Hahaha yes indeed
@@FlightFormula No, it’s not. That would be incredibly dangerous. It’s used temporarily and used for non-structural fixes like covering minor damages (like pain peeling), protecting seals or smoothing surfaces-not to hold parts together.
garuda indonesia next mate, are they really a five star airline?
Up in the Air is one of my fav movies!

Nice job Dean 🔥🔥
Thanks 🔥
8:19 "how do the other airlines do it" -> deaf people can read subtitles
no hate tho; you're killing it with these vids. but I will say, skipping the pier lounge w/ CX was a cardinal sin.
True but then you’ve got the multi lingual issues that go along with that but now that I think about it I wonder what type of sign language they had!?
@@FlightFormula sign language is different in different countries, so there’s not a universal sign language that can be understood by all.
If you’re ever on my flight, I’ll come up to you and introduce myself as Ginger Bear 🥰✈️
Hahahaha ok, I’ll remember this for when that time comes!
honestly i dont understand how you dont have more subscribers. your video quality is better than sam chois
sam is a scam
@@filipepedro8272Horrible man. Can’t watch Sam
One "weird" thing I found is they have incredible pillows haha.
Yeah, I’m not sure if every other airline has terrible pillows or if they do just have incredible pillows.
I thought the exact same when I first went into the smaller singapore airlines lounge 🤣
hahaha
Great video and awesome channel.
Thank you very much!
0:26 is that tape on the nose?
Sure is hahaha
I have heard so many great things about Singapore airlines. Disappointing to see they are not much better than most business class.
Card reader in biz .... in flight duty free shopping....
me flying wizz air middle seat seeing you moaning bout SG Airlines seat..😂
🤣
The crew are really just so wonderful. You actually sometimes wonder how they do it ( by which I mean they must sack a whole load off staff who aren’t always delivering 10/10 every time).
I did read once that if/when a female employee goes on maternity leave, they can only return if they fit into the uniform they wore prior …. I’m glad shit rules like that are illegal in Australia, and elsewhere.
Hmmm yeah, you make some good points here, I guess there could be a darker side to it!
Fly to sydney on SQ or London.
Yes, it is that good
For big / fat guys .... tray table ? ..... adjustable to give more room for big bellies ?
Totally agree. Hard product is not #1 in the world by a long shot
I flew EVA on a 777 last year from LAX to BKK business class for about $7k. I was NOT impressed with the bed. Claustrophobic, just like this video describes for SA. And I did fly SA premium economy to Japan several years ago. Good service, no question. But cramped. Let's face it, unless you have a full bed like on Qatar, nothing else will do... Flying in a hollow aluminum tube in the sky with a couple hundred passengers putting out BTU and cramped quarters is not fun no matter what. Especially for a flight that drags on for > 14 hours ☹,
Nice one!
Thank you! Cheers!
sorry, wifi never works on SQ
lol the lobster mafia found ways to make it popular so they could get more money from us :P
I haven’t seen up in the air 😭
