If you are buying full fare F on your own dollar, why are you even flying commercial aircraft? At that rate I would be flying on a private aircraft. A G 5 is light years ahead of anything SQ can offer.

Chartering a Gulfstream 5 is also about 10 times the price of full F for transoceanic flights. Anyway, on my own dollar, I usually buy C. On someone else's dollar, I often buy F.
