I checked my tickets. The SQ website does not charge Australian passenger service charge for SIN-WLG or vv.

I have used the Refund website on United.com and get the AUS taxes refund. Not United.com shows the correct taxes.

SIN-CBR service is changing from May 1... it will become a 1-way circular route, SIN-SYD-CBR-SIN-SYD-CBR.
https://www.ausbt.com.au/singapore-a...-daily-flights
So the good news is that it will operate daily, with a B777-300ER. The bad news is the stop in SYD on the SIN-CBR direction, and the loss of the direct CBR-WLG service.

No idea how this will affect existing bookings for SIN-CBR, with the new service almost 12 hours out of sync with the old one. At present both services are available for purchase via the website and I can still view my booking for July. Maybe they are committed to an overlap period.

We're looking forward to CX's CBR service - we're seeing it as a way to get into Sydney outside of the 70-weekly restricted flights (HK-Australia bilateral strictly enforced by Australia cos HKSARG gave QF the finger over JQ HK).

Loses the point if the plane does actually land in Sydney

Apparent we will be place in an interesting position. Our redemption from UA, SIN-CBR-WLG SQ291 and WLG-CBR-SIN SQ292 might had been gone from SQ operating list. Sit back relax wait for their updates

Ouch! I have had 11 hours added onto a journey to CBR but a 16 hour change sounds horrific. I am going to see if I can be rescheduled onto a SYD or MEL flight with a domestic connection instead.

So there will be 7:35, 10:45, 20:00, 21:50, 00:25

Wish they'd do a 15:00 departure ... would be perfect!

Are any MEL - SIN flights operated by the older regional 777 J class or will this be the first?

I think SQ 247/248 to/from MEL was operated on older 777 even before this change.

a 1500 departure would have an ETA in MEL at around 2am (not ideal).
