LH/LX/SQ - DUB-SIN - 3512 EUR / $3795 r/t - Suites (First)
Huge price compared to what I usually post, but if you're feeling rich, at the beginning of March 2025 you can find many dates where you can fly Lufthansa (LH) or Swiss (LX) to from Dublin (DUB) to Frankfurt (FRA or Zurich (ZRH) in business and then connect to Singapore Airlines (SQ) Suites Class to Singapore on the A380. The return is the reverse - Suites from SIN to FRA/ZRH, then business to DUB.
Cost is 3512 EUR or $3795 USD roundtrip! The price of flying first is always quite steep and this fare is no different, but at least you're getting a suite instead of a first class seat!
There are quite a few dates in late 2024 / early 2025 where you can fly SQ first on a 777 for a similar price, but the experience just isn't the same as Suites class!
DUB-FRA-SIN-FRA-DUB
14116 Miles Flown / $3795
26.884 cents USD per Mile Flown
Booking Links
Google Flights won't let you book into March 2025, so I don't provide a Google Flights link.
Here's a deeplink to an LH / LX booking for an example and a few screenshots.

It looks like Momondo can display dates this far out, so here's a Momondo search for an example (Find a date where both flights to/from SIN are operated by an A380, then head to the LH / LX website and use the same dates to search for flights.) -
DUB to SIN, 3/1 — 3/14 (momondo.com)
DUB to SIN, 3/1 — 3/14 (momondo.com)

I just went through the whole booking and it didn't reprice. Used LH's website.
EDIT
The deep-links from ITA Matrix PowerTools work, but here's a search on LH's website.
The flight search is also displaying proper prices that stick through successful payment.
Step 1 - Outbound Flight
Step 2 - Return Flight
Step 3 - Booking Summary
Step 4 - Booking Details
Step 5 - Payment

Yes, you should have access to the Private Room in Singapore even though it's a codeshare. Outside of Singapore, the first class lounge. In Frankfurt you'll use the Senator Lounge, not the first class terminal.

Thanks cruser1
This is basically similar to the ex-Scandinavia fares to SIN. Are other destinations available?

If you start elsewhere in Europe, only dates in Early March will work because this is about when there are seats in Fare Code A on the LH/LX codeshare operated by SQ between FRA/ZRH and SIN.
CPH is the only comparable starting point in Scandinavia.

There is one single date that works in January from anywhere in Europe, but it's insanely expensive because it uses a Singapore Airlines fare, not a Lufthansa fare. The SQ A fare is still discounted First/Suites, but the base fare is much higher than an LH/LX A fare.

ITA Matrix is finicky and the first and last segment book into Business, not First. If you choose "First" or "Business or higher fares" the search fails. If you search "Business or higher" without telling it to return the A fare code you'll only receive business class results.
Correct - the price increases quickly for destinations beyond Singapore.
Unfortunately it doesn't. A one-way is more expensive than a roundtrip. The cheapest one-way from DUB has a base fare of $4446 USD and the one-way from CPH has a base fare of $4272 USD.
