I'm considering a DXB stop on my return now:
https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/prem...rt-1307-a.html
Just ticketed OW, have 24 hours to cancel for free via the Big O.

Other question: seems a lot of folks are staying at the Hilton and I currently have a res there... is it that much better compared to the HGI as a Gold? Yes I've been reading the threads, but for the purposes of the DO the Hilton sounds good.

Well.. didn't keep it. Was exciting, but would cost more miles (and time) to return home from DXB. Haven't been to BKK yet either, so will be nice to see a new city.

I live very close to the Courtyard in Singapore. I guess I should be tentative for lunch. Tentative because not 100% sure I'll be in Singapore.
I haven't see any agenda for BKK. Has one been published?

I usually stay at the Conrad, which is fantastic as a gold (and especially as a Diamond which I am). However, the Conrad was sold out when I booked so that's why I'm at the Hilton. The location of the Hilton will be good, but I can't speak to the quality of the hotel as its my first time there.

I have updated the wiki, for my flight inbound, not heading to any post do.
Staying Friday night at the Holiday Garden Inn, and the 2nd and 3rd nights at the Conrad.
Fly home Monday on Emirates.
Not seeing any locations for dinners while in Singapore unless I am not looking in the right section.
Looking forward to catching up with old friends.

18th says Newton which i assume means the Newton Hawker center and 19th is Chui Huay Lim Club. Both are right by the Newton MRT stop
