01. SQ First Class: Singapore to Tokyo

Thanks to the power of Krisflyer miles (204,000 to be exact), Xixi and I were able to fly First Class on Singapore Airlines to Tokyo. We started the adventure in The Private Room - SQ's exclusive lounge only for passengers flying First Class. After a great dinner (and a couple too many glasses of Dom), we had a great flight on SQ's new 777-300ER - one of 3 in the entire fleet! The icing on the cake was that we were the only passengers in the entire First Class! What a way to start a holiday :)

  • Pre-arrival meal. We both booked the cook to ensure we got what we wanted. Xixi had the Kyo-kaiseki while I opted for the lamb chops, which were the best I've had since coming to Singapore. If only there was a restaurant that served 'chops like these!

  • Lights out! Our beds in the sky - perfect for a great rest on a redeye flight to recharge before hitting Tokyo at full speed with an 8 am arrival.

  • We got awesome Ferragamo amenity kits - also a new offering on SQ - which were great. There was a male and female version, but both of us wanted the male bag as it was much nicer. It also includes a rather large (50ml?) bottle of cologne / perfume which was very handy after an overnight flight.

  • Our next surprise - times two - came as we boarded the plane. First off, we got the brand new Boeing 777-300ER plane which features the latest First Class offering (only 3 in the entire SQ fleet). Secondly, we were the *only* passengers in First Class. 8 seats and 3 flight attendants, all to ourselves!

  • We started off in The Private Room - Singapore Airline's private lounge for First Class passengers only. It was so exclusive and luxurious, with great service and an awesome selection of free food. Oh and who can forget - CHAMPAGNE!!!
