I'm looking forward to the eventual upgrade of both the KF & SK Lounges which was announced about a year ago (but still has no set start date that I've seen): https://www.ausbt.com.au/singapore-airlines-to-build-new-flagship-lounges-at-changi-t3

Hi guys any idea why on an NZ ticket on SQ you cannot allocate seat pre-departure even when travelling on full fare business class?
it seems pretty poor given this is supposedly a route where they partner closely?
For what its worth, after all the hoopla on this forum about the lousy Gold lounge the Silver Kris lounge is nothing to write how about. Dated and crowded. One would have thought in their homebase SQ would have a flagship lounge.

Am booked on SQ to fly to Europe in March (all SQ metal and SQ flights for all longhaul segments). On two of the SQ flights I'm being invited to bid for PE.
Does anyone know if I would still get NZ points/status points on my original fare paid? Or would I get nothing?
I got hosed on LH upgrades a couple of times: upgrade to PE or J and got zero NZ points).

I've upgraded SQ economy fares to PE and successfully credited (with usual points/miles earning) to both VA and OZ in the recent past, so no reason to think crediting to NZ would be different.

Supposedly the SKL is better than KFG, since KFG has all of the *G travelling in Y whereas the SKL is for business passengers.
