Hi FN-GM and SQ228
Thanks for the comments - I'll try and pick up on them in this response.
From my perspective, I like arriving mid-morning (going either way) so I have a bit of the day and evening before crashing! I don't really get affected by jetlag, so my view is perhaps coloured by that!
So, going from Australasia to the UK, I like a late afternoon/early evening departure which connects well into bank of departures ex-SIN to Europe (I think this is similar to FN-GM.
Going from the UK to Australasia, the night departures are preferable to me, essentially because it is easier to sleep on the long sector to SIN. Thereafter, I treat the second sector ex-SIN to going to bed as a long day (so if I can doze on the aircraft that's fine, if not, I'm not overly concerned).
I think this hits the nail on the head. A transit flight to the Americas makes good commercial sense, but makes scheduling a night departure ex-MAN tough. I don't see how this could work unless it is a standalone MAN terminator, or if the scheduling on the Americas side was less than ideal.
Thanks for the comments - I'll try and pick up on them in this response.
