  • SQ to Release Business Saver Redemption in A380 & 300ER?

    SQ flyers,
    Has there been any word or inside knowledge from satff at SQ that SQ will ever release Saver redemptions for A380 & 777-300ER now that the A380 is flying to Paris. All there is at presenty is standard and full.

    Looking at redemptions, there is no Saver for Business Class redemption from Singapore to Europe. Syd to Singapore is ok on the old 777-300 but thats it!

    Looking to travel June 2010 and have to book soon or if thee may be Savers will hold off for a while

    Thanks

    What time frame is it? I tried to search from now, june, july, august to sept, but no old 777-300, only 2 times 77W (SQ 231/232 and SQ 233/234) since july onward....??? mind to enlighten me?
    I have J redemption on SQ231 (77W) for end of August, don't want to get bumped into old 777-300
    thanks...

                C is J, difference is in the fare

                  On this site booking class abbreviations are used to define class of travel. As an example:

                  First - F, A, O
                  Biz - C, D, J, Z, I
                  Economy - Y, E, B, M......

                  Some call Business Class as C or J. No real fix rule. Up to you

                    Most airlines use the most expensive/flexible booking class as code for their product:

                    First (F)
                    Business (C)
                    Economy (Y)

                    SQ has called their business product traditionally J. LH - although they have recently introduced J as the most expensive booking class - still call it C as do most other airlines (NH, NZ, UA, TG...)

                    SQ is using R for Suites, a booking class formerly uses for Concorde flights.

                      Sigh, they trying to maximize the revenue squeeze from the new planes before allowing Saver award to be opened up.

                        I wouldn't mind for the first year until the novelty wears off.

                        Having the new F still only available on standard awards is laughable - especially given that most SQTalkers want to keep the SkySuite... :-)

                          I flew on a Y booking code domestically in Malaysia this morning. Lousiest business class seat I've ever had.
