review of JL712 SIN-NRT in C
Flew a B777-200 on this route, Skyluxe seat with Magic III IFE. Business was almost empty, so we were invited to spread out after takeoff. No welcome drink on boarding, which was a little surprising. Staff did their best, but didn't come close to the SQ level. Skyluxe seat was very primitive and seemed to involve pressing levers and then physically manouvering the seat into the desired position. Not electronic. Magic III had 14 channels (including TV and news channels), but at least it was AVOD. Piper Heidsieck champagne. Loved the menu's warning of "Please refrain from drinking during the flight if you will be driving afterwards". Good adjustable headphones. Not addressed by name at any point during the flight. A->B, but not a delight.
