| | | Flight Experience | Singapore Airlines operates a Boeing 777 on the Tokyo route. The business class cabin is arranged in a 1-2-1 layout. Each seat is lie-flat and has direct aisle access.
While the seats are lie-flat, you have to sleep diagonally. However, bulkheads don’t have this issue and are ideal - especially if you’re taller.
The crews are known for being proactive and friendly. Some would say they're among the best in the air. Similarly, the inflight catering gets high marks. Use the online Book the Cook feature to ensure you get your preferred meal. | | How To Search | Search with Singapore Airlines: | Log into your account Select Redeem flights Enter origin/destination Select date(s) From calendar, you can select one-way Select class of service Select number of passengers
| If you're concerned about points transfer delays, you can call and see if they'll hold the award space. If an agent won’t put space on hold, hang up and call again. | | Happy booking! |
