SQ826
Eye Shades
Slippers
SQ825
Socks
They did ask me whether I wanted my meal after takeoff or before arrival. I guess things are inconsistent, but no harm asking.

Pretty sure I've had 1-2-1 on that sector. I may be confusing it with 871 from HKG though - can't remember. Guess it just depends on which aircraft ends up being used.

Both slippers and eye shades were handed out shortly after take off.

I have an upcoming flight on SQ826 from SIN-PVG where the First class saver award has been issued. However, recently, on the same flight, the Business class saver award waitlist has been confirmed and have been told to issue the ticket by 17 Jan 2017.
The flight will be on B777-300 and an overnight flight where there will not be much service provided, and possibly sleeper meals. The miles difference between First and Business class saver is 15,000 miles.
Should I just folk up USD15 & save 15K miles to cancel the First class saver and go with the Business Saver or just go ahead with the First class saver award in which ticket has already been issued.
Thanks for any advice!

Remember that the F seat will be noticeably better on the 773 than the regional angled-flat, unless you have the gift of sleeping well on the slopey seats. Also, you can eat a good meal at the TPR (if you won't be eating in town) before the flight, allowing you to just sleep straight away.
If anything, I would say that an overnight on a 773 is a decent value for money for the additional miles!
