SIN Nov. 24th get-together
There are a number of NW FT'ers who took advantage of the sub$400 fare to SIN.
See thread:
www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum35/HTML/004394.html
We are trying to drum up support for a mini get-together on November 24th. Nothing is official yet but the first suggestion was evening cocktails, maybe at the Long Bar. This is my first trip to SIN, so i don't know too much about other "local" hang outs. I am open to suggestions and/or alternatives. Please post here if you might be interested in participating and/or have a suggestion.

Oh, this is unfortunate...
I'm leaving SIN at 6am on Nov, 24.
Anybody interested in Cocktail on Saturday, too?
My suggestion would be the bar in the Westin Stamford Hotel (next to the Raffles Hotel on Stamford Road). In the 70th (well, +/-) story there is a restaurant and bar which used to be called Compass Rose (but the name changed). There is a restaurant on one story and the bar half a story higher. The restaurant has a wonderful view towards Singapore River and the harbour. One of the best views in SIN in my opinion. The bar "looks" a liitle bit more westwards and the view is still nice (spectacular, but not as good as in the restaurant).
Anybody interested in a meeting on Saturday evening?
edited to add:
correct name of the bar: New Asia Bar & Grill (former Compass Rose Bar)
correct name of the restaurant: Equinox
70th floor was correct
address: Swissotel The Stamford (former Westin Stamford Hotel), 2 Stamford Rd. [really easy to find, the highest building around, opposite the Raffles Hotel. (Pic of the Hotel)]
link to view of/from the restaurant

Unfortunately, EnhancedbyCO and I do not get in until 1230am Sunday morning, so we will not be in town until at least 1 or 130, so i don't think it will be possible for us to do anything Saturday night. Thanks for the suggestions though. maybe some other FT'ers who are there on Saturday can join you.
