And yes you are right, AY do indeed fly HKG - BKK and BKK - SIN but it really is a long way round and as you say the schedules mean it is not practical unless you have time to waste. (The price is about the same, all told, as the CX option I have anyway). AY website won't anyway let you book HKG-BKK-SIN, btw.
I will at some point have to take up one of those super cheap AY HKG-BKK J fares, great value, though it won't work for this trip sadly.
And a shame indeed QF no longer flying the route.
UA it is then...
