After a fantastic stay in the SilverKris Business Class Lounge in Terminal 3, we were looking forward to our flight in Singapore Airlines Regional Business Class in the Airbus A350-900. Find out in the following trip report what amenities the cabin offers and what service you can expect on short-haul flights within Asia.
After arriving on Singapore Airlines from Kuala Lumpur, we made our way from Terminal 2 to Terminal 3. We could have also gone to the Business Lounge in Terminal 2, but I had read that the Singapore Airlines SilverKris Business Class Lounge in Terminal 3 only reopened in November 2021 after extensive renovations and expansion. Find out if the trip was worth it in the lounge review.
The route from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore was the busiest international flight route in the world in 2018 with 30,187 flights per year, according to an analysis by travel information service OAG Aviation Worldwide. The coronavirus pandemic has certainly reduced this figure significantly. Nevertheless, there are still numerous daily connections between the two Southeast Asian metropolises. We opted for a morning flight with Singapore Airlines. I was very excited to see what the Singapore Airlines Business Class Boeing 737-800 NG had to offer in regional traffic.
In July 2016, I was lucky enough to be on the maiden flight of Singapore Airlines' Airbus A350-900 from Düsseldorf. I have already written a detailed article about this. In this review, I would like to tell you what the return flight in the Singapore Airlines Business Class Airbus A350-900 from Singapore to Düsseldorf was like. There is also a brief insight into the First and Business Class SilverKris Lounge at Singapore Airport.
An aircraft must be evacuated within 90 seconds. To ensure they can respond correctly and quickly in an emergency, airlines regularly train their personnel. But evacuation via the emergency slide of an Airbus A380 isn't the only part of the training schedule; makeup and service also need to be perfected. At the Singapore Airlines Training Center, I was able to get a glimpse behind the scenes.
At 06:10 on 22 July 2016, the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900 landed in the North Rhine-Westphalian state capital for the first time and was traditionally greeted with a water fountain. From now on, the renowned five-star airline will be connecting Düsseldorf Airport with its hub in Singapore three times a week non-stop. I was lucky enough to be on the inaugural Singapore Airlines Business Class flight in the Airbus A350-900 from Düsseldorf.
Starting July 21, 2016, Düsseldorf will be the third German city served by Singapore Airlines. The non-stop flights to and from Singapore will be operated with the new Airbus A350-900. We will be present on the inaugural Düsseldorf-Singapore flight of the latest addition to the Singapore Airlines fleet.
