I have just completed LHR-SIN, SIN-HKG, HKG-SIN and SIN-LHR in F and there was priority disembarkation after all of them. Sometimes the curtains were open but in that case a FA blocked the way until all F passengers were off.

I just completed a flight SQ1 (744) from SFO on Nov 26th and my experience is that they have priority disembarkation for the premium customers still. No curtains drawn but the I saw the IF Supervisor instructing his staff to stand at the Y class entrance area to block it off for Class J and F passengers to leave before letting the rest of them go by. Over the past month. Had flight to NRT (744) and BKK (772) and was also allowed to leave first before the rest. Guess it has been pretty consistent in terms of priority disembarkation for me

My flight today on SQ 65 (B773) BKK-SIN do not have priority disembarkation enforced as no attendants were holding back the economy passengers from entering the raffles cabin just before the aircraft doors were opened. However the loads for the premium cabins were very light today, so maybe it doesn't make much of a difference.
