Interesting. I was told when traveling Y on SQ22 that I could not use the Raffles lounge as a VS Gold but the Virgin website says I can. Interesting too that the cities mentioned do not include Singapore but where else is there a Premier lounge?

Slightly off-topic:
What is the guest policy at the SKL? Can a Raffles Class passenger bring a guest into the lounge who is travelling in Y? What if the guest is on a different flight from the host? (In my particular example, the host is travelling SQ C while the guest is a UA 1K travelling on UA in Y).
Also, it is my understanding that arriving (i.e. non-transiting) passengers do not have access to ANY lounges in SIN. Is this correct? If so, what can a passenger do if he arrives at SIN at 10:30p and must stay at the airport for an hour and a half?

Correct, no arrival access to the lounge. You can very easily occupy yourself in Changi. There are many free internet kiosks, huge plasma screen tvs for sports and news with comfy chairs to sit in, movie theatre with free entry, cafes and restaurants, as well as back massage services.
Changi Airport's website has the details (and suggested activity lists based on your duration of transit!)

Just one further question. I will qualify for PPS when arriving in Changi mid April. My home adresse currently is in MUC so definately no way to have the card with me and gain access to the SKL for my additional short-haul flights in SQ Y in april. Would be great if the lounge wardes accept any other proof. Do they accept a recent statement showing enough PPS Sectors ?
Thanks !
