Was on a WN the other day to FRA on SQ326. Best chance for J redemption. Had a single seat initially and really don't get comfortable unless I'm in bulkhead rows 11 or 15. Normal sitting to stretch legs makes you twist your spine uncomfortably and for lounging the seat still doesn't recline far enough for my liking. Oh well, maybe I'm getting old, haha.
All bulkheads were showing occupied during OLCI, but once onboard center aisle seats in row 15 were both empty and I switched. Thank god, well closeness of galley / toilets can be a bit bothersome, but given it is largely a day flight I was okay.
PEY was maybe 1/3 occupied when I had a peak. Tested the seat a bit, not bad, but for my flight price was 3k SGD which is too steep. Anyways.

Managed to snag a PY seat on SQ 237 on 20 Nov, operated by SWP. Received an email about the change and when I logged on, I discovered that it had the PY layout. SWP also operated SQ 227 on 21 Nov while SQ 237 returned to the 773. It seems the aircraft deployments are a bit fluid these days.

My 773rd post, lol. Another bird to look out for is 9V-SWT, has not been flying since last Wednesday (11/16). I wonder if they've decided to take 2 original 77W at a time for reconfiguration. It's already its 3rd week SWE is still not flying.

SYD - SIN how often do we see new cabin in these route
Looking to book a reward ticket on SYD - SIN around Mid Feb 2017 . Keen to try the new BUsiness J cabin in 777-300ER . What is my chances ?
Flight radar show last 7 days there is an 9V-SNA on 21 November on SQ212 SYD - SIN but other day seem to be old J business class product . Which will be better the A380 J 06 Product or 777-300ER 06 J product ?
Thanks for all the help .

After doing a couple of back-to-back A380 and 777 flights, you can really appreciate the extra comfort of the A380. The noise levels alone make so much difference to the inflight experience.

I am not sure how anyone could objectively describe it as "roomier."

But in all aspects having sat in both A380 and 777W quite a number of times they both are quite similar and the experience is quite minor. My take is on the A380 as it is more quiet and I feel less "jet lag", also the upper deck feels better but this is just a personal opinion.

My 777th post lol
SQ378/377 to MXP/BCN is operated by a 77WN, 9V-SWW instead of the 2006 77W. First time I am seeing this for BCN, but it is a rare treat they are getting for once: The 2013 cabin products which usually sometimes just do MXP itself. Now onto BCN? Nice until they decide to put a A350 there one day.

Have sat in J on an all-J upper deck on the A380, i can testify that the noise levels are very low. No idea about the difference between the 2 J products on the 77W vs A380, but i would go A380 as noise is a key factor for me and anyway the seat is already the widest in the sky.......if you want more storage space try for a window seat because of the windowside bins.

Just done a quick search and look like SQ have change 231 and 222 to the A380 .
Let say if SQ fly new 2013J from SIN-SYD that plane will have to fly back SYD-SIN right ? unless it can go somewhere else from SYD .
