BUD-SIN best options for F

i plan to travel to Singapore from Budapest next year for miles and since its almost the same miles for free ticket in Business and First i thought to treat myself, i never flew First before :-)

i though of Qantas A380 LHR-SIN and Cathay on the way back SIN-HKG-FRA or LHR

can you please help me to choose for best F experience

Hey!
you could try some of these routings...

BUD-FRA-SIN (last part of QF 744)

BUD-LHR-SIN (QF 380)

For Cathay seems you could route via AMS, FRA, LHR, FCO (I think is a two cabin plane)

JAL: FRA, CDG, LHR all seem to have valid connections...

I would try to get the 380 personally and then try CX First (or Viceversa)

I'm 90% sure that QF's FRA service doesn't have First, but otherwise your suggestions are spot on.

Just flew on Cathay's First HKG-LHR and it was an amazing flight. I highly recommend it.

Correct, QF via FRA is a two class plane going three class (J/PE/Y) soon.

To the OP: I would try to go via LHR and do QF A380 one way and CX the other way. Both are great products and you can experience the nice CX lounges at HKG.
