Menus have been loaded. Christmas item (appetisers, mains, desserts), if served on your flight, is marked by a Christmas tree icon.

Agree with carrotjuice, SQ tries to cater to all religious ethnicities. SG is fairly balanced when it comes to the religious mix if you will, with Christmas observed by a sizeable portion of the population on top of other festivities (eg CNY) - just take a stroll around Orchard road right now.

On the load for Christmas, we flew to ZRH a few years ago in J on the 25th of Dec (arrive 26th) and there was 1 pax in Suites (A388 back then), 5 in J (we were two of them and got bulkhead seats as there were more bulkhead seats than pax) and 12 in Y as per the IFM (Inflight Manager).
Funnily he said the aircraft was full heading back to SIN, what a contrast. Crew was all over the pax and the Y folks each had a row of 4 seats to themselves so could sleep decently too.
Now with all the pent up post-Covid travel demand it could all be quite packed. Safe flights anyways.

Funny thing I just recalled, was that cc met everyone at top of jet bridge and handed out mini chocolate Santas.
All in all, SQ did a fantastic job marking the occasion.

Loads ex-EUR from now till a few days post Christmas tend to be relatively low as people are already in EUR for the holidays and Europeans would likely be already at their holiday destinations or home for the holidays. It will pick up again post Christmas when Singaporeans return home.

Was a completely full house as well. One of the best flights I had, come to think of it.

Christmas decorations are nice, but I heard Krug Rose 2004, so everything after that mentioning got somewhat less important suddenly

A couple of shots from that 2019 Christmas flight:
Gratuitous shot of the Krug. 2 different Krugs and one DP on that flight.
Kudos to Zurich station and CC for being game
The Krug Ros appears to be indeed a staple. It was served during Christmas in 2021 also.
Crew tend to decorate doors to toilets as well they appear to have a separate stash with seasonal arts and craft stuff.
Merry Christmas yall!
