How do you draw this conclusion, as A330 operates 207/8 which are not mentioned? Or is there other info around that suggests it will change to a different aircraft type?
Mind you it is the one rotation on SIN/MEL that does not include an overnight sector in either direction, and I find that it's OK in business for that reason. Hate it in economy though - so hope they do change it.

Hello all,
I am looking to book my mother in law a flight on Singapore airlines this September (either 09/16 or 09/17). Do the HKG->SFO routes have the new first class product?
Thanks for any information!

Ok, so I've read then entire thread and am still confused. I'm flying SQ 61 in mid Nov and in theory all the retrofitting should be done by then right? The seat map has 8F and the mini cabin in J. But I'm confused, does the new plane only have 4 F seats or did the config stay the same? Basically do I get new seats?

I can confirm AKL-SIN is being operated with the new products onboard. The aircraft was 9V-SWK.
This was my first time on SQ and the experience lived up to my high expectations. Service was polished with attention to detail. The seat was terrific (11K) even if I only experienced the bed for about 15 minutes. The food was good with great presentation, but I thought it was on the bland side. A Thai curry and Kung Pao chicken should burst with flavors. Not so much out of AKL apparently. The new KrisWorld was a bit glitchy for me, but the picture quality and selection top notch. Overall, a great SQ experience. Can't wait for the next opportunity!
