My understanding is that the seat included in the SQ/Scoot codeshare is a basic seat and you can select another seat in the same price category but if you want to move into another area that is a higher price you have to pay. I am just going on what I have read unfortunately and do not have any first hand experience.

I have a SQ booking that includes a TR-operated flight, and I had to call TR to get my free seat assignment (of standard seats) as well as the one free baggage allowance. I was able to purchase a meal without extra cost on TR's website.

I’m going to book this tomorrow - Can get on the SQ operated flight rather than Scoot from HKT for a good price through a travel agent. But as others have said, 40k more Baht booking direct.
Shame there isn’t any good outbound options Ex-Eu for Jan. Was gonna book QR and upgrade with Avios but not willing to do so with the old J frol DOH - Thailand.

I'm trying to book this Itinerary - But the only way to do so through the SQ website is by making a Multi-City booking.. one catch with that
"Multi-city booking fare conditions
You won't be able to mix fare type for Multi-city booking. Your fare type is determined from your first flight selection. To change fare type, re-select your first flight segment."
Is there any way of getting this priced through SQ without it being Multi-City?

It seems that the SIN-NRT-LAX segments are covered under a single flight number, and when you select seats, you select just one seat for both flights. That's OK. But when I credit to United Airlines, will I receive credit for SIN-NRT-LAX, or just SIN-LAX? It makes a huge difference in PQP.
The same issue applies to JFK-FRA-SIN.

Was not able to book on the website with any credit card, and the paypal link kept returning a "this merchant does not accept this form of payment" error message. I downloaded the Singapore Airlines app, tried it from scratch on there, and the booking went through (with cc) on the first try! Irritating process, but it all worked in the end.
You can pay with Paypal, but then it costs an extra 5% due to currency conversion.
Update: I was able to book it through SQ CS over the phone, although I didn't get the dates I wanted and their price was 2k THB higher than what was quoted on the website for the exact same itinerary and fare class.

Thanks for the answers. When I booked, it wasn't clear that it was just one flight number. I called UA and they said it would be count as two segments. But I trust FT more than I trust the UA agents. I will try to change to the nonstops, then, but I suspect SQ will try to charge me a change fee for that.

Booked it on the app with Apple Pay, thank you! (The particular promotion ended 10/14, but I'm sure it will be extended or come out again).
SQ711 BKK-SIN doesn't earn any Alaska credit. I'd like to credit ONLY this segment to Aeroplan, and then credit SQ22 to Alaska. Is this something SQ customer service / SQ's reservation system can handle? (Different FF crediting for different segments).

The direct answer to your question is no. The FF# gets applied to the ticket, not the segment. But the whole premise of your question is flawed because SQ711 will absolutely eaen Alaska credit assuming you are in an eligible fare bucket. What made you believe otherwise?

And you are wrong about FF#. You can apply them per segment as I did just a week ago on such a ticket.
