SIN-KUL $166 to upgrade to business class.
Would I get priority baggage from EWR if I upgrade the SIN-KUL segment?
What about lounge access in SIN?
Priority baggage: probably, but no guarantee of it actually working in KUL. Sometimes the immigration queues for foreigners will negate that benefit.
Lounge: Yes.
It's a 45 minute flight, though. You're essentially paying for lounge access and a light snack onboard.
