Hi, my first post in this forum. My wife and a kid are flying JFK/FRA in April in economy. What is the procedure of upgrade here? Do they have something like eVIP's like AA does? Is there an upgrade for $$? Thanks!

Indeed, tons of saver availability through KF. Redeemed another SQ25 saver for Dec., hoping they will swap a 380 on the route once the 744's get retired and they'll be forced to honor my rez in R.

I'm flying FRA-JFK up top in J on June 19th - anyone have any idea what to expect for the menu or should I book the cook? Never flown SQ before.....
I'm in row 18 because 17 wasn't available. Any seat advice? Should I try moving to 12/14?

I'm booked on SQ 25 JFK-FRA on 5/27 in 14H Upper Deck. I'll post afterwards with a mini report regarding the seat before you leave on your flight, if you are interested.

If you book the cook, don't take the pepper steak option out of FRA - it was dreadful.

Booked in C on SQ25 in a little over a week - currently F4 (also J4/Z4), have tried three times in the past week to do a *A UG w/UA miles, no dice yet. Any insight on when (if?) they might open up a few of these seats for final upgrades?

By the way, the BTC option is served for the "Light meal". There will surely be an asian option available (since the flight is coming from SIN) and in most cases, the asian options are the best to go for.
