Singapore to/from Colombo SQ 468 & 469 | Book the Cook | Business Class | Airbus A330-300

One of the common routes taken for travel hacking Singaporeans, this flight is an older business class product but still comfortable enough for a lie-flat rest.

WE LOVE SINGAPORE
Since we are a travel channel, here's some facts from our (very small) part of the world - the sunny island of Singapore!
1. Singapore is not in China - we lie on the equator with an average humidity of 80%.
2. Singapore's original land mass was 581.5 sq km, expanded by reclamation to 721.5 sq km as it is today.
3. We have a population of 5.8 million.
4. We are a multi-racial country with 76.1% Chinese, 15% Malay, 7.4% Indian, 1.5% Others (2016 est.)
5. Singapore emerged as the world's safest country in the 2018 Gallup's survey.
6. Singapore's Changi Airport won the title of the world's best airport, sixth year in a row, in Skytrax World Airport Awards 2018.
7. Singapore is famously (or infamously) known to be a very clean and fine city, where chewing gums are banned.

Thanks for posting this video. I currently have a confirmed ticket on SQ469. If I fly the SQ468 into Sri Lanka, would you happen to know if I can wait at the gate for them to prepare the plane, then board SQ469 to return back to Singapore?

Hi Timothy, mileage running? There isn’t a SQ counter within CMB immigration, so unless you’re able to get the boarding pass for 469 issued together with 468, you’ll likely have to check in at immigration again.. Hope this helps ☺️

​@@OneNameOneDesire Not a mileage run. I wanted to finish off the trip with a Sri Lanka vacation. The cheapest way to route that was to also begin my trip from Sri Lanka. If I manage to secure both boarding passes for SQ468 and SQ469 (likely from the SQ counter in Changi where I will board the first flight), will I be able to disembark, and re-board with no issues? I believe SQ468 arrives CMB at 11:55 p.m. and SQ469 departs CMB at 12:55 a.m.

I don't see why not, if you do not have a check-in luggage. Better to confirm with SQ that you'll be able to secure the boarding pass before purchasing though because with a transit time of an hour, there's no way you can catch 469 if you've to re-enter immigration.
