Hello
Been monitoring Premium Fare forum to no avail.

Anyone seeing a J fare from India to USA ( ORD is best).
Thought there was a R/T on SQ to EWR in J out of AMD for sub $ 1200. Can't find it. Will throw away the return if not convenient ...
Can fly other airlines.

Ummm... where in India? What dates etc. etc.... And you were getting a return on SQ J for $1200! That’s cheaper than SQ’s regular Y fares!

Lets hope Plaza Premium, Aspire/Swissport or a similar large operator finally gets the job. That said in T4 AI pax could theoretically use the Swiss *A lounge ...?

It’s very bad @ 9W.

The good news is that EY has agreed to increase their equity stake. And the banks have agreed to lend 9W money if EY does this. But EY also wants the founder/Chairman out. And 9W is not willing to accept this.
