Really great service throughout and the food was really nice. I can highly recommend thank you very much.

I loved the full Taylor Swift selection but felt that the other selections were limited, didn’t span the popular music eras nor a wide enough range of music genres. BUT the seat and bed were GREAT (it was wide, long enough, had great storage, firm enough to uphold body postural comfort). Outstanding crew and really great food - gourmet innovative dim sum breakfast so different from the boring standard fare offered by many other business class products.

The consistency with Singapore Airlines is fantastic. Crew are always brilliant and food delicious in business class

The business class seats were very uncomfortable. When in lie flat position my legs were very restricted.

It was very good experience on board to Sydney with SQ.

Service excellent would chose Singapore airlines as my first choice

Fantastic patience when one of the passengers behind me was an absolute horrible, horrible person and the girls just kept smiling and doing their job with patience and kindness. Well, done to the crew.

Perfect experience from boarding through to leaving the flight, comfortable and personalised service from all staff, highly recommended

The male traveller seated in the row in front diagonally opposite my husbands seat across the aisle as soon as the seatbelt sign went off moved across the aisle into the seat in front of my husband for the entire journey from London to Singapore he had his seat reclined and pushed back and the seat touching my husbands knees for the entire journey from London to Singapore. very uncomfortable for my husband.

More Baggage limit Alternative of virtual check in at airport , prefer personal touch with “real person”check in counter for baggage drop

I think it is much better than the flight I flew from Sydney to Tokyo.

Boarding was effortless, the food was outstanding, the seats in Premium Economy were extremely comfortable, and the staff and crew were excellent.

I never flew with alliance. Kayak is a joke and none of the flights or times were correct. Won’t ever use kayak again

I missed my flight due to unforeseen circumstances It was, however , an excellent price !

Qantas is always subpar beyond comfy chairs for a domestic flight

there were not many new movies. The media choices is nothing compared to Emirates. Staff were excellent

Everything was perfect. Fast check-in and very roomy seats with plenty of legroom. There was no entertainment but I did not miss it.

The staff seemed a bit disinterested and some requests didn’t get answered. I finally got up and brought water for a passenger who had asked nicely 3 times for water. My headphones didn’t work and it took multiple requests to get them replaced.

This flight was delayed by 12 hours. This meant that instead of leaving at night, having a nice dinner, then sleeping and arriving in Singapore rested, we left in the morning, were offered breakfast even though we had all had breakfast, and then no-one could sleep (day flight) but instead snacked to Singapore. Qantas ran out of quiet snacks and everyone in Business that was awake was eating pretzels in NOISY packets. I was trying to sleep. When we arrived in Singapore of courser the Qantas First Lounge was closed, great management thanks..

Ease of boarding. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was good. In flight entertainment great.
