Sleeper service - night flights

Hi,
I'd like to ask you at what departures time SQ is having shorter "sleeper service" in business class ?
So departing at 11:20 pm from ICN to SIN we should expect "sleeper service" ?

thank you.

...so only these flights ?
I've seen trip report from SQ603 (ICN-SIN) 2 years ago, then departure time was 00:20 am and they had also sleeper service...
So just wondering...is for example that strict rule, that each flight departing after 11 pm or 00 am have sleeper service ...
My departure is 11.20 pm so don't know is the full supper or quick sleeper...

I would not put it that way - only those flights have been confirmed by fellow FT members. There might be other sleeper flights, indeed..

I didn't note any difference between the day flights and the red-eyes, honestly. I think that sleeper service only applies in F (which SQ603 doesn't have anyway).

Yes this particular flight will be sleeper service.

The difference between sleeper and supper is a greatly reduced service and less food options for sleeper service.

Just did sleeper service in business on SQ 218 and it was not as bad as I expected - more details in this post http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/28361921-post120.html

As well as a choice between supper and breakfast, meal is served all at once, has less courses than normal (e.g. no cheese course), and has less options to choose from. There is also no inflight snack menu.

Yes SIN-CBR and CBR-SIN are both sleeper service. There are several menus for this flight posted in the FT all airline menu collection.

Choice of dinner or breakfast even though SIN-CBR is more than 7 hours! I asked for a snack and they gave me a spare breakfast, hope this happens every time otherwise I'll have to eat a lot more in the SIN lounge...

Yes,do not think I will be eating until at least the "official" breakfast service,I think I would rather sleep.If I am still hungry I will eat up in the SIA lounge,before I board SQ308.As a matter of interest what was pax numbers like on this service? I will be doing both sectors(SQ292 & SQ291) Thankyou SIA.Cheers

I've flown this route several times. Most times business is completely full for CBR-SIN and SIN-CBR, but much lighter loads for WLG-CBR and CBR-WLG.
