First Class on Singapore Airlines
Widely regarded as the best airline in the world, Singapore Airlines makes even economy passengers feel like royalty. Imagine, then, your experience flying First Class on Singapore Airlines. You may never come down off that high.
There are two different levels of First Class on Singapore Airlines, and the list of amenities is stellar in both of them.
Suites
The pinnacle of the world of First Class are the Singapore Airlines Suites – which are, as the name suggests, a private cabin on an airplane. In fact, Singapore Airlines doesn’t even regard these cabins as First Class – they say the Suites are “a class beyond first.” Indeed.
They’re only available on the Airbus A380, and there are only 12 of them on a plane. And if you’re one of the privileged few who can afford them then you’ve probably got someone else who can read this website for you, too. Still, since these things are what travel dreams are made of, here’s what the rest of us are missing.
