It's just my speculations that SQ777 haven't receive any ETOPS certification.

Singapore Airlines was going to send 777 from June, but they still using A340.

Either they haven't receive ETOPS, or they don't have enough 777ER.

unless some major event has taken place in the last few weeks, i can say with certainty that SQ 777s are certified for 120min ETOPS.

still, when all's said and done, i suspect that SQ are glad they hedged with that A340-500 order.
