I found a nice J fare ex-SGN connecting in SIN onto SQ 22 for ~$2600 OW. Not a bad way to try out this flight!

I was unable to find a single day where a business class award seat for 92K miles (saver rate) was available on this flight, even at the end of their schedule. As was suggested by the phone interaction, it appears that awards/upgrades on this flight are currently blocked. Please post if you have been able to book an award on this flight.

Sorry if already mentioned, but is there information yet on the business class seats that will be used on the ulr? I've seen quite a bit on the PE seats, but with respect to business class there seem to be some articles saying that they will use a seat similar to the a380 and some that suggest it will be the same as the non ulr version of the a350. Is anyone able to tell just by looking at the seat map, or has there otherwise been news on it?

They are likely blocked, not necessarily taken. At OLCI you should be able to select them, but be aware that you might have to concede your bulkhead seat to someone with an infant.

Singapore Airlines hasn't made this explicit it in its press releaat as these (and hence some confusion and speculation) but the ULR will use the same business class seat as the standard A350-900. We quizzed the airline on ULR seating at the time of the non-stop NY announcement and SQ media advised "We have chosen to use a consistent product across our long-haul A350 fleet."

I recently booked 3 J on the ULR for LAX - SIN on a Thursday, and 3 J on SIN -LAX on a Monday. But that being said I do remember seeing 3x availability on the Sunday flight but I wanted the Monday one.
