Yes I noticed and have experienced that the plastic coverings for side storage (on A380), mirror flaps (on 77W), and tv screens (on any), have all broken, fallen off, or just scratched/cracked.

Overall, SQ's visualisation of its new seats are great. The problem comes with the product and upon closer inspection, is just 'cheap'. Nothing matches and well, nothing seems to flow nicely.

I still wonder why the blue pillows / blankets are used cos they don't match the seats they are on. The blue colours were used with the Raffles Class products when the emphasis of blue was stronger than it is now. But no body seems to have caught on this slight mismatch?

On many airlines, when one enters a cabin, one should feel relaxed or wowed with the ahhhh feeling. But I don't get that feeling when I enter a SQ cabin. I just feel tense. Many its the 'high fixtures' of its seats, or the colour. Does anyone feel the same? Or maybe I am just extra sensitive.
