Singapore’s Premium Heavy A350 Returns To World’s Longest Flight

Having recently increased its flight schedule from three times a week to daily service on three major US routes, Singapore Airlines has made another change. Its flagship Airbus A350-900ULR has returned to serve routes from Singapore to New York and to San Francisco.

I've flown with Singapore on a normal A350 from Amsterdam to Singapore. I decided to pay the extra for Premium Economy, and it was an extremely pleasant and restful flight! I love this airplane and I loved Singapore's service, they're on my top pick list for sure!

looked it up, a premium economy ticket from SFO to Singapore is about $1500 usd

Been on SQ22 in summer 2019 in business class. Was one of the most pleasant flight I've ever been on. Great seats, great service and they offer HDMI-ports to their IFE, so I could connect my Nintendo Switch and play on the big screen. Even one flight attendant was curious what I was playing and watched me for a few minutes.

Love it, would do again.

SQ's Airbus A350-900ULR is a beautiful, smooth ride to the US. Flown this aircraft several times and enjoyed every flight. Can't wait to fly it again soon.

Flew SFO-SIN on one last year. Business out and Premium Economy back. What a joy in both cabins. The UAL Polaris lounge *which you get access to has to be one of the best domestic carrier lounges in the US. All in all a fantastic experience and I'm looking forward to doing it again!

Fun fact SIA has 52 a350s they may be the 2nd largest a350 operater with Launch airline qatar being first

Haven't flown on the A350-900ULR but I did fly the A350-900 from San Francisco to Singapore on my way to India in August of 2018.

Woo Hoo! Love the A350-900 ULR! Haven’t flown on one yet especially of Singapore Airlines’ 🇸🇬example but I can’t wait to try it! I’d rather try SFO-SIN someday but I could live with New York JFK or EWR-SIN if need be! 😆

I have flown on Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900 ULR and the standard Airbus A350-900. From Singapore to Moscow, Jakarta, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle as well as Newark. Really looking forward to having another opportunity to fly again 😁

So excited to see Singapore airlines back in business ! Hope they resume flights to India soon !!

So, passengers are just along for the ride with the cargo!?!

Alternative title: Boeing must sell the *FAST*

I feel the change from SIN-NWR to SIN-JFK is a good call. JFK is New York City's primary international airport, not Newark and Jersey City's Liberty Internarional Airport, NYC's secondary airport.

Would love to fly this route again on the A350 ULR. Flew this route, ALBEIT Newark to Singapore back in 2004 when SIA flew the A340 in the same 2 class layout that is being flown on the A350 ULR.

I did fly the A350~900ULR on SQ21 inaugural non stop EWR/SIN ON Oct 12th 2018~ The flight was awsome and did not see too much difference with a regular long haul- this Ultra long haul flight serviced the 2 capitals in just 17:30 minutes using the polar route across the roof top of the world then flying down over Russia, China and Thaïland - On the way back the Transatlantic route was much impressive considering the ocean to cross and fly over 3 continents during one single flight -
One disappointment was SQ business class seat having its flagship bed seat with some very unfunctional foot rest in diagonal instead of having a regular straight footrest — I still wonder How come SQ did such a mistake considering their usual superior inflight product...I guess i Will never know.

Sounds exciting - except for who is on those flights - when a 14 day quarantine is required on both ends of the trip for business travelers.

1:13 wait, how does singapore operate the standard a350-900 to JFK if it doesn’t have enough range?
