IFE on 744?
Hi,
I'll be flying LAX-SIN-LAX in F later this week. I checked the SQ site and it lists the "new" movies, but is that all that is available? I am a little concerned about the amount of time in the air round trip if that is all there is in terms of movies. Can someone give me an idea of how many more movies there are than this?
A stupid question, I know, and one that I usually never worry about. It's just this time I am trying to travel light and maybe not even bring a laptop.

Yea, I'm on the connecting NRT flight on the 744.

From past experience, I could survive without my laptop when taking SQ. There are many movies to choose from. Or else, the audio on demand has lots of music collection. Of course, once I have experienced the avod on 77W or A380, I would think that the video quality on 744 is not that good.

Small screen, I would give it a pass but if there's nothing better to do then you can still watch stuff and/or play games.
Once you try the IFE in Y on the A380/77W there's no going back, so when on the 744 in Y I just flip out the DS or PSP for some fun.

I'm thinking on doing JFK-FRA in business class on the 747 over the 4th of July weekend... it will be my first time with SQ, from this thread I understand that C class will have AVOD, am I right?

When I last flew SIN-FRA-JFK on their 744 about 2 weeks ago, there was AVOD on Krisworld, though old and screens where small. Latest movie offerings were about the same as the new Krisworld (took A330 from PER - SIN the day before the 744 flight).
Enjoy!
