On long haul flights, you would probably work it out, and ask the crew, when you see other passengers moving their seats into a flat position. The crew may even proactively offer to do it for you.

However, I get it, on a sector like SIN-CGK, I don't think too many people would be converting their seats into flat beds, for you to see what others are doing, and the crew certainly wouldn't be proactively doing it.

I've asked the crew on two different occasions. I don't think I've learnt yet, although to my defense, I don't learn very well after champagne.

Exactly. You don't need to know if you don't want to. They'll do it for you while you continue to drink etc.

Don't want to open a new thread just for this, but SQ will receive its 6th A350 9V-SMF this week (scheduled 14 Oct), with a special livery.

AWESOME!

And from TPG:

"Obviously, a 10,000th aircraft delivery is a tremendous milestone for Airbus, which has been churning out airliners since the 70s. And, given that Singapore Airlines was the launch customer for Airbus’ largest plane to date — the A380 — it seems fitting that SQ gets to share this honor."
