FWIW, I've BTCed for the FRA-JFK leg in C on my last three flights and never had a problem having the BTC for the first meal.

That doesn't surprise me. It ought to be a no-brainer. I think my crew was just a little clueless. They forgot to serve the birthday cake that a certain thoughtful someone had ordered for me. They remembered and told me about it as I was walking down the stairs to the lower deck to deplane at JFK.

I would have been devastated if I was the person who had ordered the cake. That was just silly!

)Funny, though, that the crew on the SIN-FRA leg was worlds better-- excellent, really. But I have seen some regulars comment that, for whatever reason, service on the FRA-JFK-FRA legs is routinely a step down from service on the SIN-FRA and FRA-SIN legs of the very same flights.

Just checked into my flight SQ25 JFK SIN in J. Proceeded to VS CH showing my J BP and my KF Gold card but was denial access. Was told the new contract is for F or Solitare pax.
Oh well. Now inside CH lounge next door to VS. CH better than the Oasis contrated lounge.

I have a C class award on hold on SQ25 for travel in about 2 weeks. I also have UA in C ORD-FRA on hold.
Going JFK-FRA would involve me having to change airports (LGA to JFK). Is this worth doing to get SQ over UA for C Class? I'm sure service wise it is, but I have never done the transfer from LGA to JFK. Thanks for the input.

I'm on this JFK-FRA flight tomorrow in Y. I called the reservation line and asked for a window seat and I couldn't really understand the guy. I had him repeat what he said 3 times but couldn't figure out if i had a window or not. I looked online and it says "Window Requested". When I was shopping for other flights I noticed LX and BA had window seats but I went with SQ because the flight time was slightly better and because I've alwasy wanted to try SQ. Now, I'm thinking this was probably a bad idea. Oh well, I guess I have the ambien around to sleep through the whole thing.
BTW - Can I use the VS lounge in JFK as *G?
