That contradicts SQ's stated hours AND my recent experiences.

"Daily: 0630 - 2030 hours"

My apologies I stand corrected, this must be new as they probably canceled so many flights.
The last time I used the SQ lounge was at the end of January (3 times) and it was still open until 11.30pm.

This could explain why all the other lounges are so busy.

Thanks

I hate the TG lounges, the food is crap and almost no service, and the wine is warm at the D (Business Lounge). When I asked for chilled wine, they told me they have ice cubes

You don't have to worry about warm wine in the remote TG lounges at the C and E concourses. They stopped serving wine altogether there more than six months ago.

I'm always served cold white wine on my flights. Are you asking for it warm ?

it depends on the crew, but often they keep the white wine outside the ice bucket and it gets soon too warm....
if you complain they ask you whether you want some ice cubes in the wine...

I'll admit it. I sometimes put ice cubes in my wine. Doesn't bother me if it's just a casual drink.

Oh God. I have a 1230a flight in F, hopefully the lounge won't look like gates pre-boarding time.

The two recent times I've been in the F lounge between 10:30PM-midnight it's been absolutely packed to the gills.

hmm....not looking good for Saturday night/Sunday morning TG departure to Scandinavia. Was expecting a sit down and a peaceful moment in the TG business lounge in D before the long flight back (luckily in C class)
