Even if its SEA, there's no need for the A350ULR as the standrad A350 can easily make it non-stop from SIN-SEA

Personally I would like to see a direct to SEA, whether it is on the -900 or the ULR.
I wonder if the IAH is a potential candidate for the ULR, replacing the MAN stopover flight. It would cut the flight time substantially from the current 22-24 hours to perhaps 19. ORD would be my other bet.

No special livery for the ULRs.... I supppose the only way to tell it apart from the other 359s is the window arrangements
9V-SGE will be the 5th ULR to be delivered, while 9V-SGA will be the 1st ULR delivery. 9V-SGA is still unpainted, so we may still see a special livery. But, then again, we didn't have a special livery or sticker for the 1st B787-10. So let's wait and see.

Originally posted by SQ228 View PostI had the exact same thought about IAH, which would allow them to make MAN daily without scheduling hassles. Their MAN-IAH traffic isn't too woeful to necessitate it, but removing Y as an option could cut some of the SIN-IAH traffic I wonder?

Originally posted by Dobbo View PostOn the face of it, IAH going non-stop is highly unlikely. SIN-IAHvv traffic is very low, roughly 50-70 per flight. Unless the overwhelming volume/value of SIN-IAH traffic routes via other airlines, this is obviously too low. It is the SIN-MAN and MAN-IAH traffic that makes SQ51/52 work, albeit the present difficulty is how to add capacity to MAN-SIN when SIN/MAN-IAH traffic doesn't warrant the increase.
