Which SIN-LHR / LHR-SIN flight has the new Suite?
I have done a search but I cannot find anything on which SIN-LHR/LHR-SIN flight has/will have the new suite.

Could someone advise me please?
Thanks!

Right now, none. Both new-suite A388s are working SIN -- SYD.

I thought 3 times a week they are doing the morning flight. Best way is to check seat map.

They were also on the HKG route too.

Thanks very much, KFly!

SQ322 then back on 317 it is then, and I'd better pick the day of the week carefully.
(Not that the old Suite is bad but the internet on the old A380 is bad... so I'd rather have the new Suite and the new A380)

Just beware that the A380 is currently operating SQ305 rather than SQ317, I'm not sure for how long but on the 317 you get a 77W.

According to the dates on the link provided by KFly, by the time I come back, 317 should be on the new Suite some days of the week.

I guess I can just have it changed nearer the date if there is aircraft change.

LHR-SIN will be either May or June, or both. I'm not sure if I'm making two trips or one - probably two.

Apologies in advance, but i’m booked in J on SQ222 SYD-SIN and SQ322 SIN-LHR at the beginning of November 2018 (both currently listed as A380).

I can’t seem to figure out if I will be flying on the new or old J product on its A380 (and not sure which I would prefer as never flown Singapore Airlines before!)

Grateful for any information / guidance people might have!

Thank you.

Judging from the seat maps 1Nov - 8Nov, SQ222 SYD-SIN (unlike SQ232) will have the old config while SQ322 SIN-LHR has the new one.

Just asked both FC Lounge check-in at Changi & Suites stewards (Fri eve) - they don't have a date and confirmed there are no new suites on the SIN - LHR route. So assume that can only apply the other way round as well.

I had problems finding ANY seat (I mean full fare revenue) on new Suite ex-SIN to LHR late April - whether that's because it's full, or not operated, I don't know, but either way, that tallies with Wavery83's comment.

I gave up and booked the old Suite in the end for that leg.

SQ322 Singapore to London currently has the new suites on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.
SQ317 London to Singapore has the new suites on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

From 1st May both flights will feature the new suites every day.
