And no, 1am is not 77W... On a contrary, it seems that your SQ318 is 77W...

Oops, it depend on dates?
No, I don't sleep on flights so staying awake is a doddle for me.

SQ 318 (my flight) was SQ's 2nd A380 LHR flight and has been for a long time. I've flown it 8 times in the last 2 years.

SQ 306 has been 77W since it's inception, but it seems that on 01 July the two flights will swap equipment, for good, which makes sense.

What doesn't make sense for my flying is SQ's retiming (enhancement!) of the Bali flights, which means that i'm unlikely to take SQ 318 anytime soon!
