I always wondered how this route was viable. They route through NRT with a pretty average J class seat. It's not a daily flight and flight times headed west from LAX put you into KUL at an odd hour.
Seemed like a bad idea from the start but will miss the Oneworld redemption option!
Agree, but the SQ LAX-NRT-SIN arriving at 3h30-ish a.m. is operating quite successfully it appears.
I had a C-class award booked in July and was able to switch it to CX some 2 weeks ago. A 2x blessing as it turns out. Still unfortunate for OneWorld fliers, as this put more pressure on remaining award seats, especially alongside the pool of US fliers joining in now.
