BRUTALLY HONEST | Singapore Airlines fantastic UPPER DECK Economy Class on the Airbus A380!

[@rotitelor]

If one needs a vegetarian meal, just book it ahead of the flight. Singapore Airlines will provide one if requested ahead of time.

Yes, *Singapore Airlines* from JFK to FRA is by far the best option you have on this route... 😅 I flew with it several times and I enjoyed every single one. Great video David!

I flew the route three days ago by Lufthansa on their 747-4 in economy and it was surprisingly good !

I flew in Air France a couple of months ago, A380 from JFK to Paris/CDG (route which Singapore also covers) and it was quite good too.

i love that the amenity kit is still complimentary, and reducing waste by requiring it to be requested on demand. there is so much unnecessary plastic waste from unused or partly used amenity kits, this is a much better common sense approach.

Singapore Airlines has, in my opinion, the best Economy. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it everyone else, especially the upper deck economy on their A380 (flew it from Sydney to Singapore).

[@shekarc]

As far as I know, it is the only airlines, where steward(ess), in economy class will walk you to your seat -- like what some airlines do in the business class. It is one of the best ways to give the best first impression -- and a warm welcome!

i love that the window seats in the economy has the extra side compartment that is built into the fuselage. I was to fly Qantas LAX-MEL and had the very back economy window seat on their A380 but Australia closed their border 1 HOUR prior to bordering (someone facebooked me not to get on the flight). Ended up flying to Oz but an AA Dreamliner from LAX-SYD (premium economy) then a Qantas flight to MEL.

[@ianwyj1]

Sadly, the upper deck economy class cabin no longer exists on SQ - all but one of their A380s (the odd one out is still awaiting return to service at the time of writing) will have upper decks comprising suites and business class seats only.

[@MsDmp1]

Thanks so much! The review was great! I just flew this exact flight to Singapore. For missions trip to Myanmar. Exact everything you said. Really excellent for economy class. The only thing for me was, when I called an agent about seats on the upper deck, I was told the upper deck did not have economy class, when it did show economy class on the seat plan on their page. We got off in Frankfurt and reboarded for Singapore. Thanks again . Excellent review. ...Donna from Virginua USA

We all LOVED it.!!!! Was given a tour of the plane when we landed and also provided an amenity kit in economy. Wa better than some business class flights I've been on. Incredible crew...best flight I've ever been on.

[@christophsaviation2045]

I had the chance to fly on SIA three times now on their a380, twice from Frankfurt to Singapore and once from Frankfurt to JFK. Two flights in Economy and one in Business. I had never had anything to complain about, they're literally the best airline I've flown on, even surpassing Emirates. The Airport in Singapore is also amazing, only Vancouver airport was even better in my opinion.

[@pascal5566]

I sat on the exact same airplane in the same economy compartment on the exact same side of it as you did. My seat at the window was the only one not having his side compartment. I didn't know where to put my blanket and pillow since I didn't need it. Then I stowed it into the front pockets and innerly cried bc I'm 1,90m and my legs had no room no more. Except that the flight was absolutely brilliant. I loved it. Economy wasn't the most comfortable but the service was incredibly good. Edit: 11:47 That exact same lady was also present on my flight she was super friendly but that has to be a standard I guess

[@avesraggiana]

Whether it's her job to be friendly, be thankful she is. Our "senior mamas" at American Airlines or United Airlines, or Delta Airlines, spend most of their time hiding in the galley, and will snarl at you if you are ask them for anything.

[@girindraidris221]

I've flown JFK-FRA-SIN-CGK route about twice a year for the past 8 or so years and then switched over to the EWR-SIN-CGK after they reintroduced it. Every time I'm in Frankfurt I'm greeted by a gate agent named Dimitri who hasn't forgotten me. He used to take care of my brother and I when we were unaccompanied minors, now that we've both grown up, Dimitri just lets us hang by the desk talk about life. He gets mad at me every time he sees me go to the smoking lounge, laughs and shows his coworkers the pictures of my shenanigans, and talks about his grandchildren. That's why I love SQ so much, my family has a deep relationship with SQ so far as befriending managers at the airports we frequented and my grandfather being one of the last lifetime Solitaire members. They're the best airline in my opinion, because of the level of service and kindness the staff hold.

[@waynekwong4478]

SQ is simply amazing! Us older folks always reminisce about the good old days of economy class flying, SQ kind of kept some of the good things like hot towels, menu cards, cheese course in meals, amenity kits, lotions in the bathrooms. Did you find the ride a bit bumpy being at the tail end of the plane? I sat in this cabin many years ago when they first flew A380 and thought it was a touch bumpy. Can’t wait for your next video, David! 😬

They have emerging competition with Qatar Airways and a few other premium carriers, so they can not afford to slip. They have built their reputation up over a long time, and will want to protect that.

Flew that same route on the SQ A380 back in 2012. It looks exactly the same as it did back then! It was solid for sure, and the bins on the upper deck were great, but I wouldn't say it's the best economy product I've ever had. After all I'd heard about SQ I expected it to be on another level from your typical economy product, but for the most part it was just your typical long-haul economy class.

You should try Air France as well. They fly an A380 on the JFK to Paris CDG too, which also has a few tourist/economy seats on the upper deck. It was really good, cabin didn't look as modern as Singapore not had that much detail, but service was superb and the experience was enjoyable overall. If Singapore are a 10/10, then Air France are a 9/10. They also fly A380 planes from Paris to Miami and LA.

I last flew on Singapore economy on 2012 and was impressed then - I can still recall the meal was potato salad with smoked salmon and a pork in caraway sauce main. I flew Finnair business class to Singapore last time and the meal was not as good! They are worth paying a little more for!

Some passengers on your flight might be going towards Cebu City & Davao City in Southern Philippines. Because it's kind of useful for them to avoid Manila Congestion on PR.

Great review. I have never flown Singapore Airlines before (though I've visited their country - Sentosa Island and Changi airport were amazing!).

This is a reconfigured A380, the upper deck was all business class before. Thats why you have those side cabinets as they were originally the business class storage.

That's not true. All A380 have side storage compartments on the upper deck as a standard feature, regardless of which class.

FYI Philippine Airlines' Manila to JFK flight is the longest aside from Manila to Toronto. They utilise the A350 for the direct MNL-JFK flight.

I'd almost have to call this Premium Economy because of the food and unexpected amenities - except for one thing that was high on some of the expectation lists that you showed at the beginning and you chose to ignore: legroom.

[@ryanlister4722]

I have flown Sydney to Heathrow return several times. I always feel crammed in like a sardine! They would be first if they'd take out a few rows from each cabin to add a few extra room. 31-32" pitch is incredibly uncomfortable for 13 hour flights! So, in this respect they're far behind JAL & Cathay. Their new business class is cramped, with serious flaws: the need will go flat, but you have to sleep on an angle and place your legs in a tiny compartment which is uncomfortable; only the bulkhead seats will give your a straight, generous bead. This is behind Cathay, JAL and China Airlines.

[@linachan791]

That would depend on the season and weather - head winds or tail winds alone would affect the flight's performance. The flight levels, weather conditions enroute are variables.

This really goes to show how crappy most of the other transatlantic offerings are. This is a 10 year old product on that plane in Eco and business. The new A380s of SIA are even more amazing.

“If you would’ve asked me to create a list of things an airline should offer...” I thought that’s what you did beforehand, before the flight. That’s what makes an expectation an expectation. Otherwise, you’re just observing and calling whatever happened an expectation. A trans-Atlantic economy class flight needs one set of expectations and you need to go strictly off of that for objectivity and continuity. The same for a first-class domestic flight, or a business class trans-Pacific flight. Whatever it is, it needs to be the same.

[@simply_aviation]

No, you are wrong. When you book a flight on American Airlines for example, you will have completely different expectations for the flight than when booking one on Singapore Airlines. Not all airlines are the same, that’s why the expectations aren’t the same. And if you listen to what I say, you will notice that I said that if you had asked me to create a list of things only a really good airline would provide, not a general list.
