Reduction in SQ award space on BNE-SIN

SQ business class award seats are limited to regional-configured A330s & B772s for ANA & *A partners. With the introduction of A350s to serve BNE, it means ANA members can expect a further reduction in available Business class award seats between Australia/NZ and Singapore.
Singapore Airlines in today’s schedule update (15AUG17) adjusted planned operational aircraft for Singapore – Brisbane route, which sees gradual introduction of A350-900XWB operation starting mid-October 2017. http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/274294/singapore-airlines-nw17-brisbane-service-changes/

As this is not specific to NH, I am moving this to the Star Alliance forum for further discussion.

Armagebedar - this is specific to ANA members since the ANA partner award rules state that reservations for Singapore Airlines Suites, First Class and Business class cabins are not permitted for award travel on the following Singapore Airlines aircraft (A350-900, A380-800, B777-200ER (retrofitted), B777-300ER).

If SQ is replacing its A330s with A350s, then ANA members no longer have access to business class award seats on Australian routes when using ANA miles on SQ metal.

That is a SQ rule, not a NH rule. NH spells it out explicitly but it applies to nearly all partners.
