It stresses me out just thinking of the possibility of missing a connection, not to mention the extra time compared to a direct nonstop. So I'm torn and still haven't purchased the tickets yet.
Thanks all!

Note that both SQ1/2 and sq11/12 are "direct" flights in that you're on the same plane (you can't miss it unless you do something massively dumb), they're just not non-stop. SQ1/2 makes you deplane, but you don't clear customs or anything. I've not flown SQ11/12.
