neilmac thanks for the feedback. It seems you have flown SQ quite a few times. Has this been your only bad experience on this sector (to SYD) or have you had other bad experiences on SQ (be it this sector or other sectors)? The reason I ask is because I am planning a trip around the world in May (US, Korea and Australia) and I would like to pick my airlines carefully. Don't get me wrong, I've flown SQ before (both Y and F). Other than the attitudes of some of the SQ FAs, I really didn't have much to complain about.
