Thanks very much for the comprehensive report, Wilko Pali Sedef!
The OH and I will be travelling SQ for the first time in September in J, so are particularly interested.
You asked for feedback on the caption v. narration - I enjoyed both, and as already commented on, you have a good voice and accent. You could maybe get two videos for the price of one - a shorter, caption-only version, and the full fat narration added version also?

Great video! I am half way through. I was wondering what month and day you flew because you said the loads were low. Did you book points or out of pocket? I want to book points in biz so how far out did you book?

Thanks again for all your comments guys, I didn't think I'd get this much feedback (on airliners, I got maybe 3 responses lol).
@Tocsin I am thinking of doing a shorter narrated version because some have complained this one is too long. We will see, it's alot of work to put these together but I definitely enjoy it.
@corruptcanadian well I actually booked this trip with LifeMiles (Avianca), the date of the flight was the 11th of March.Originally the A380 we were supposed to have had economy pax behind the business class but then they switched it to an all upper deck business class. The loads in J weren't bad by any means, the cabin was probably 60% full I would say. Economy seemed very empty judging from how many people we saw at the gate. And there were 4 passengers in Suites from what I remember.

100% in agreement. Recently flew CX First, JL First and SQ First & Suites. SQ suites are indeed the most comfortable bed of the three but sleep is on and off for long flights. SQ first is easy enough to flip back and forth without assistance from the staff but not the suite. And no record of the requested Book the Cook on the SQ flights. I asked if the business class seats required flipping the seats over for lie flat and the staff looked at me in horror realizing I would indeed have moved to business class to avoid the First / Suites seats. The food on JL is by far the most memorable. The food in the SQ Private Room at SIN airport exceeded the quality of the food on the plane.
