Toronto to Singapore options

Looking into this for a potential project.

I would be purchasing 2x YYZ-SIN for myself and MrsITAG, end of August, likely for a week.

I'm finding that the Air Canada site seems to be giving an Economy cabin on SQ for routing via HKG; and the Singapore Airlines site gives an Economy cabin for the SQ portion of a YYZ-LHR-SIN flight.

I'm sure this is covered in lots of threads, but are there hints on how to find options for pure-business class, advance purchase, rather than this foolishness? Or am I missing something?

YYZ TPE
TPE SIN

All on BR on the 773 in business class. That's how I have made that flight for several years.

Geesh, fast. Thanks. Obviously I need to work on my international abilities. Most of my stuff is NA.

Fastest way YYZ-SFO/LAX-SIN. Both legs flat beds.

Or use penguin's suggestion above for EVA.

UA options

UA operates non stops nightly out of both SFO & LAX. 787 metal. SFO is an easier airport for cnx.

I prefer flying through Tokyo to break up the flight.

TK flies YYZ - IST and IST - SIN. You eat-then-sleep on both legs, and get to spend 6 hrs in the fantabulous TK Business Lounge in IST.

AC/CX agreement via Hong Kong is probably your best Air Canada based option..... P14KXAT fare basis is pretty good cost value if you can find the space on your dates.
otherwise AC connecting to SQ in Europe is probably the best way to get the most SQ flights. Routing via LAX or SFO on SQ doesn't give a very attractive fare cost wise

Slightly OT, but I am taking that flight on BR in a month to KUL

I've heard nothing but good things...I am sure they are all true?

Use a TA and they can get the SQ leg to price in J

Some weird reason on AC.com it always prices in Y.

Just got off BR TPE-YVR in J on their 77W a couple of days ago, can confirm that it's pretty damn good. Do yourself a favour and see if there's anything that you want to pre-order for your meals since they have an expansive selection of things to eat.

For OP: I'm seeing $4800 on ita matrix, YYZ-AC-HND-SQ-SIN. All J. $3400 if you want to route through MNL and fly PAL all the way there.
