Since sometime 2022, and as recently as this morning, I’ve bumped into CX crew at the hotel.
While I disagree about the T4 experience, do agree about the catering, crew & inflight experience.
Up till pre-covid, the 735/710, 711/658 overnighters, as well as the 712/713 SIN-BKK 5th freedom were operated with SIN based cabin crew. This changed after restoration post covid where the SIN based cabin crew were decimated, hence you are seeing more CX crew overnight.
It appears that there might be a revamp of the SIN based as i have seen more junior crew SIN sounding on my recent two 711 and one 710 flights. Pity tho, i still miss an ISM who used to be SIN based.
