(and out of the way for DPS). What are you seeing for your travel days for RDU-SIN
Outbound

December 22 or 23 or 24, 2024
RDU-DPS

Return

January 14 or 15, 2025
SIN-RDU

I will do anything humanly possible to avoid the A350, as I had a terrible experience on Delta.

Premium Economy or Business

I only have 250,000 miles, which are worthless. No status. Pay with Chase Explorer card and/or miles.

I am trying to find the longest segments in real Premium Economy or Business. Or exit row on transcontinental on domestic flights if not possible.

I would really appreciate it if you could point me to a trip report you may have done. I have watched YouTube videos and googled. I assume you are talking about the non stop EWR-SIN flight on the A350?
