EK BNE-SIN experiences

Evening all, looking for any experience of the above flight (I believe marketed as EK433, operated by a 77W)

i am looking at a flight outbound only, in F

i believe it is the old suites product but haven’t been able to find any reviews online or details of the service- departure is god awful o’clock in the morning, what sort of meals are catered, pyjamas, etc etc

I’d be on a QF codeshare so no chauffeur drive and possibly some other minor differences

any guidance much appreciated

(admin please move if a more suitable thread already exists)

I'm no help.... but I'll be taking the SIN-BNE flight in F in December (upgraded from J)! A nice 10am departure.

yes the BNE-SIN now departs at 0235 or so, seems all the reviews are from when it was more pleasantly timed, or from the inbound

never know I might even pass you at the gate!

You'll get an idea of the food options by looking at the current menu under "What's on your Flight" on the EK website.

thanks that’s really helpful as I assumed I wouldn’t have access to that information until booked

You can look up the menu of any EK Flight on the website, but it's this month's menu, so might differ when you fly (but you'll see the type of meal (breakfast, dinner etc) and an idea of type of choices you can likely expect)

So apparently the decision will be announced 24th September, rebooking options will include via Melbourne or into J on QF

(I didn’t book yet and looks like the MEL flight is a similar price but a better time so I might be unaffected either way)

I assume QF don't have F on that route.

Route ending 30th March 2020 so you’re in the clear and I might get a chance to fly it still!
