ANA Square First, Thai A380 First, Singapore First, and More!
Hi Folks,
I recently flew to Singapore for a couple of days and managed to snag an award in ANA Square First and Thai A380 First on the outbound. The return was in Singapore First with a friend of mine working the flight, so it was an especially awesome flight.
In Singapore I stayed at both the W Sentosa Cove and the Hilton.
You can find all the installments to the trip report on my blog below:
Introduction
ANA First Class Chicago to Tokyo Narita
ANA Suite Lounge Tokyo Narita
Thai Airways First Class Tokyo Narita to Bangkok
Novotel Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport
Singapore Airlines Silver Kris Lounge Bangkok
Singapore Airlines Business Class Bangkok to Singapore
W Sentosa Cove Singapore
Hilton Singapore
Singapore Airlines The Private Room
Singapore Airlines First Class Singapore to Seoul Incheon
Singapore Airlines Silver Kris Lounge Seoul Incheon
Singapore Airlines First Class Seoul Incheon to San Francisco
Thanks for reading, and any questions/comments are welcome!

Hello lucky, I literally read almost all your trip reports and I liked all of 'em, especially your 'crush' flights with Janesis...LOLZZZ... 
I did fly a lot of EK/EY F, but not a lot on Asian carriers or European carriers for that matter. I did fly 9W F, once, though. I was upgraded from J because of my Gold status.
Given a choice, what would you choose, to fly to Asia, if your ultimate destination is India? Also, do you think revenue F is worth it, or should I just buy miles, and then go for an award F?
I did check out the latter option, and it appears to be significantly cheaper than the former.
I do not fly a lot, and ofcourse, nothing compared to you, good sir, but whenever I do, it is always on a revenue J (international) or a revenue F (domestic). As such, I do not have a lot of miles stacked up, and not very many elite statuses (I do have some ).
Thus, I was trying to look at cheaper ways of flying international F on European/Asian carriers, and thought, who better to ask, than the master himself!
