There is no RCC at SIN, so no need to worry. If you're flying same day C/F, you can access the SIN SKL. IF not, you're going to be sent to the SATS lounge if you're *G.
If you're not *G and you're in Y, you're going to wander the airport!
Best, Dave

SIN SKL only honor those 1st, Business, & PPS but doesn't allow those KrisFlyer Elite Gold to enter the lounge. Before I got the PPS status back in 2001 while I was an Elite Gold, I also got reject by the stand staff by saying I have to use the SATS lounge.

In compare to CX, marco Polo Silver status can already got in to HKG CX lounge + many other CX lounges world-wide...

It is *G flying in Y that does NOT get access.

Best, Dave

Correction: anyone holding a *A BP in C or F does get access. EOS.

*G is not required. Just C/F on a *A carrier.

I wonder if SKL in terminal 3 (once it opens next January) will be *G lounge or not. Did anyone hear any rumors?

You are, of course, correct - I did a poor job upthread of distinguishing *A and *G. Mea culpa

However, be aware that at UA checkin, you will be provided with a coupon to enter the SATS lounge, and directed there.

I just flew SIN-IAD in C, and was provided with coupons/instructions to use the SATS lounge. I didn't attempt to use the SKL.

However, compared to the RCC in IAD, the SATS lounge is excellent!

I figured I won't have access to the T3 silverkris lounge on my UA C ticket from SIN-NRT, so I walked over to the Gold lounge. Well I get to the Gold lounge and I was denied access to the Gold lounge and was directed to go to the Silver lounge. I was also told that the Gold lounge is for Y passengers only.

Well low and behold I was given access to the silverkris lounge!

While this is all true, it doesn't address the fact that C class BP holders have the RIGHT to use the SIN SKL.

Fair enough. Just be aware that you COULD have.

What lounge does RCC member get traveling in Y? Whether *G or not does it make a difference?

I'm asking now in the new Terminal 3. Thanks in advance.

Assuming you're flying UA you don't get any lounge access, sorry!

According to UA's website, that's not true.

*G and RCC members both have access to "SIA Premier Lounge".

As a *G I've always gotten a card for the SATS/Premier lounge in SIN. UA's website indicates I'd get the same from RCC membership.

My question is now in the new Terminal 3 what is the ruling for a) *G and b) RCC when traveling in Y?

See my post immediately above yours (#28)...you should have access to the SATS lounge with your RCC card.
