"pretty disappointing"
A Nathran (Singapore)
✅ Verified Review | Flew Singapore Airlines flight 421 Mumbai to Singapore in Economy on a retrofitted Boeing 777-300. Pretty disappointing. Boarding was delayed due to late incoming a/c. But no announcements at all - passengers got agitated when no boarding call was given even after 45 mins after scheduled boarding time, staff seemed a bit nervous. Not expected from SQ at all. Onboard, my IFE (seat 52A) didn't work properly. Screen was grainy and without colour, no audio. Crew tried to reset it, but still in vain. So ended up watching a movie on my mobile. Windows were stained too. Seats not very comfortable, didn't recline well. Not sure if its by design, or due to some technical fault. The check-in staff were very polite. Onboard, food was good. Had ordered Indian Veg meal, was of top quality. Toilets clean even after 4 hours of flight.

"best business class seats"
2 reviews Dag Rommen (Singapore)
✅ Verified Review | Copenhagen to Singapore, returning from Singapore to London in business class on Singapore Airlines. Another top experience with SIA. The best business class seats for my 191 centimetres. Good champagne, good wines and pleasant crew. Good entertainment on new screens. And luggage on the belt when walking through no-queue automatic self immigration in Singapore.

"not hesitate to use again"
Liam Matthew Moulton (Indonesia)
Singapore Airlines is deserving of a 5 star rating. Flew from Surabaya to Bangkok via Singapore. Food is the best I've tasted on an airline, flights left and arrived on time or early. The cabin crew were friendly, attentive and professional and quickly responded to the call button. The facilities, ambiance and efficiency at Singapore Airport should be the envy of all airports worldwide. Although the final leg of my journey from Singapore to Surabaya was with their subsidiary Silkair that uses short-haul aircraft without the entertainment facilities of Singapore's long-haul services, they couldn't be faulted either given the flight was short-haul. Overall I will not hesitate to use Singapore Airlines again and would happily pay a premium to go with them over one of their competitors.

"staff were efficient and friendly"
Sarah Shailes Meager (United Kingdom)
Flew Singapore Airlines from London Heathrow to Singapore. Check was smooth at priority desk. I was offered a change to a front row seat which I accepted. Big mistake. Although giving extra leg room theses seats do not have foot rests, which render the leg rests very uncomfortable. The cabin staff were efficient and friendly. Sadly the meals served were not good. My pork main course was tough and stringy. There was no dessert only a minute piece of cheese, and some equally minute crackers. The breakfast was better, but my hot dish was served cold. The premium above economy fare, I expect a much better standard of meals.

"cabin crews friendly"
I Miles (Indonesia)
✅ Verified Review | Melbourne - Singapore, SQ218, 16 April 2016, 40K. Had a bit of trouble with check-in, I could not check in online due to age restrictions as I'm under 18. If they don't permit me to check in online they should do something to the app because I could check in on my phone's app. Onboard, supper was good, amenities were good and seats were fine. Breakfast was delicious and cabin crews friendly. The IFE in my seat didn't work very well especially for videos. Overall this was a great flight, arrived 1 hour early allowing more leisure time at Changi.

"food quality was better"
G Denton (Indonesia)
✅ Verified Review | Bali to Bangkok via Singapore. I could have flown direct but found a very competitive fare on Singapore Airlines. Slightly delayed departing and arriving into Singapore. This was due to air traffic not the airline. The Captain was very prompt in keeping the passengers up to date. Three flights on the A330 and one on the Boeing 777-200. I did prefer the A330, the leg on the 777 was full and as always the crew worked hard. Food quality was of a better standard than my last SQ flight. It does show a huge standard between catering out of Singapore and some other destinations. Will continue to fly SQ.

"service and cabin crew nice"
1 reviews G Scheiger (Switzerland)
✅ Verified Review | Took this flight from Hong Kong to Singapore on a business trip. Nice and real business class in a bit of an older style. Service was great. While service and the cabin crew were nice, I was quite unhappy with the cockpit crew. Upon departure the pilot talked about fair weather conditions, nothing unusual. He did not mention with any word that we need to be seated for 2 hours and being shaken around in turbulence. It even got that bad that the captain got the cabin crew seated because he said it is too dangerous for them to walk around. But 5 minutes after that, the captain comes out to go to toilet? It is not a shame to tell passengers that there may be turbulence en route.

"smooth and pleasant"
33 reviews N Davies (Australia)
✅ Verified Review | Flew Dubai to Melbourne via Singapore. I found the flight very enjoyable and on par with previous flights with Singapore Airlines. Check in on both the going and return trip was smooth and pleasant. The theme was reflected across the rest of the flight meaning at no point was I left feeling stressed or perturbed. I especially enjoyed the return flight from SIN to DXB since they had used a newly refurbished 777-300ER which had all the new bells and whistles, incl. touch screen IFE and refreshed seats. While I did not use the in-flight Wi-fi, it was good to know it was available and operating.

"grateful for their assistance"
N Martenson (Singapore)
✅ Verified Review | Singapore to Perth and return. We were pleasantly surprised to be greeted by name when we boarded the plane. Crew took time to make my kids feel comfortable on the flight. Cabin lights were turned off about an hour after the flight and then breakfast was served at about 4am. Unfortunately, my husband was taken ill shortly before landing – thankfully there was a doctor sitting just across the aisle from him. The crew was amazing – they thought and took care of every little detail. My kids and I were given assistance through the airport, and even helped into the taxi to go to the hospital. I didn’t manage to get anyone’s names but I am very grateful for their assistance. SQ214: Again, impressed with service. Senior crew was outstanding, some junior crew seemed a bit indifferent. Seats on both flights were comfortable and acceptable for a medium haul flight (they were angled flat seats ie. old business class). For anything more than 7 hours, a full flat would be perfect. Selected breakfast from book-the-cook for SQ225 flight, which was delicious. IFE kept the kids entertained the whole time.

"no longer a top tier airline"
Carmen Russo (Australia)
✅ Verified Review | Sydney to Milan via Singapore with Singapore Airlines. A waste of money! Check-in took almost an hour. This was partly my fault as I was over the baggage allowance, although this had never been a problem with other airlines. The explanation was that SQ is strict with their baggage allowances - fair enough. However the amount of time it took was unacceptable. This resulted in having to rush through passport control and the TRS and left me with about 15- 20 minutes to quickly eat something before having to board the 4pm flight. The business class cabin was full of children. I had booked the flight 1 week prior and opted for the afternoon flight as the reservations agent had told me it was almost empty. I understand loads can change, but if I had known I would have opted for the evening flight even though this would have allowed only about 1 hour 30 minutes in Changi before catching the connecting flight. The food was inedible - my specially selected chef inspired meal of Tasmanian salmon was dry, with rubbery beans and overcooked pasta. The breakfast served just before landing in Milan was awful - two rubbery and cold poached eggs. There is no business class amenity kit provided - how cheap can an airline get? It just smacks of miserliness. I sent a formal complaint to Singapore Airlines and their lukewarm reponse was to say sorry. It is simply not good enough. Frankly, this airline has dramatically slipped. It can no longer be considered a top tier airline. The only saving grace is the personnel, who are exceptional. The business class lounge staff and most of the flight attendants were absolutely wonderful. However, this is not enough to redeem this airline. I take 3-4 long haul trips between Australia and Europe per year and will never fly Singapore Airlines again!
