SQ = Singapore Airlines
MH = Malaysian Airlines

for food suggestions, perhaps the more adventurous of you might want to check out the “untourist” places, like coffeeshops along joochiat road, there's a really good south indian restaurant called gandi on the back streets of serangoon road and more.

pm me if you're interested in more food-ventures.

p.s had a look at the website. food at newton circus is over priced. an alternative location might be “chomp chomp food centre” at serangoon gardens.

Count me in
 
A few things poped up at home & work so I can not do last mintues MR to keep my 1k lite status. In fact, I will be dropping down to 2P.

To preserve my 100% RDM bonus, I am booking as close to 50,000 miles worth of trips in the first two months of 2006, as possibile. In that spirit, I just signed up for SIN DO 2006.

JAN 11: UA837/UA891
JAN 17: UA890/UA852

On the waitlist for upgrade

AS HGP DIA, I am most likely staying at Grant Hyatt. But past issue GH Singapore and pending merger may push me to Le Meridian Orchard or Changi Village.

I plan to attend as many FT SIN DO funcation as I can.

See you guys

if you're going to stay le meridien changi i'd suggest not walking out for a late night snack and do not walk into the street NEXT to the hawker centre. ;) might be in for an unexpected surprise of a TRANSient nature ;)

To be honest, eventhough Grand Hyatt SIN has some problems, but it is still much better option than Le Meridien. ;)

For us economy (cheap) folks who don't care about hotels really, I like Le Meridien Orchard, good location, clean comfortable bed and $90US per night ^

I know, I may only do the first night and last night at LM Changi. It's just not worth it paying the full rate, pay $30 taxi ride, and found out that GH SIN doesn't have your room ready. For cheaper nightly rate, short or free ride, no history of "issues," I will take my chance with LM Changi Village and the LBs. :p

Despite what I said about GH SIN in Hyatt forum recently, I found it very encourage that GH SIN management is monitor FT Hyatt forum. It's a good thing he/she alerted GH BKK management of a complain and get issue addressed. I hope that means our usual complains about GH SIN are taken care off.

Currently, I don't hate GH SIN enough to commute from Hyatt JB yet, as I had treatened to do. But we will see.

mjm - sadly, you'll have to scratch me from the list of possible attendees. I will be in SIN on Friday night and Saturday morning but will be departing for KUL on Saturday afternoon. I could attend the Friday night "munch", but given the late hour it starts at, I probably won't be up for it after a week of working days/nights. :(

Anyway, I hope all you guys and gals have fun. :)
