We are very close to a little over 2 weeks until the new nonstop SFO service SQ32/31 commence. By chance, out of curiosity, is anyone going to take the inaugural flight? And I know it will arrive on Sunday morning, the issue is I would love to take a 25 min drive from Hayward (Where I live) to SFO to see if there is a water canon salute for the new A350 coming to SFO, but the problem is I probably won't wake up til 11am or noon, but I hope there will be pictures/video. And those who do intend to take the inaugural, take plenty of pictures, videos, etc.
Also, if any of you are traveling in November/December on SQ31, I am sure for one, the headwinds will be extremely strong in the Pacific leading to a flight time of almost 18.5 or so hours. If any of you are traveling SQ31 between November and December, please let us know. I would love to get an idea of how it is like before my mom takes this flight in December (3 days before I go). She still wishes she took SQ1 had it not been $300 more.

Originally posted by SQ228 View PostReally excited to see where they start heading to. CPT/JNB only needs one in order to go daily. DME only needs one as its 4 days are the direct compliment of DUS. MUC needs a pair. MXP/BCN is complicated, as is CPH with 6 and 5 flights respectively. IST is currently way out of the running I suspect. What we do know is that SQ likes simplicity and neatness with long haul destinations- half/half is usually only a very temporary situation in assigning plane types.
Remember, DME is only getting the A350 in March, still plenty of time. MUC does, but surprisingly dummy booking states 77WR.

9V-SMF has been moved to the Delivery Centre in preparation for its CAF.
Based on the link below, it is scheduled to be delivered next week and will operate the inaugural flight to SFO.

I am taking both SQ32 in November, and SQ31 in December. Found very good deals for them, and these flights are evidently already, as Seatguru shows that they are near 100% full. Not very surprised, and personally I love the arrival time at SFO. Allows so many connections to be made for domestic US flights.
If so, having a "10000th Airbus" decal on the aircraft would be a nice touch, similar to how former 9V-SMU had the "1000th 747" decal.

Hello everyone, JFYI I've Just checked in for a flight ex DAC, and enquired if it will be getting any equipment change any time soon. The check in staff said the A359 might be deployed for SQ446 / 447 from mid 2017. If indeed true probably by then a few of the mid-range configuration A359s should be delivered.
