- This time I am flying from Thailand, Bangkok to Singapore.
The plane I will be boarding is a Singapore Airlines A350-900.
I have flown on Singapore Airlines many times before, and I feel safe.
I think one of the characteristics of Singapore Airlines is the quick replacement of aircraft, and perhaps because of this, the equipment on board is constantly updated and the equipment is up to date with the times. Also, the ease of use of small details such as tables is getting better and better.
I would like to regularly check Singapore Airlines, as it is expected that they will continue to change for the better.

Nice flight review report. I enjoy it and it seems a pleasing journey. Thankfully. Singapore Airlines is also one of my favourite airlines, but its relatively recent changes on Singapore Airlines is a bit saddening.
It is with great regret that the new recent in-flight SQ meal presentation in Economy class, which started during pandemic era, does not look as elegant and aesthetic anymore, as also shown in the video. While I could understand the need for cost-cutting measures, etc. during pandemic years, it is hoped that SQ could return the sophisticated meal presentation towards pre-pandemic SQ standard.
Previously, SQ meal presentation looks elegant, high-class, proper, well-thoughtful in every presentation aspect so as to have a formal and luxurious feel even on a short one-hour Jakarta-Singapore flight. This compliments other aspect of world-class SQ brand. For instance, in every Economy class pre-pandemic SQ meals consists of: proper metal cutleries set only, a refined white-colour plate for the main dish, a transparent classy glass cup, small cylindrical pre-packed mineral water or orange juice, additional coffee/tea offering by stewardess in a proper transparent cup, as well as rounded bread offering, basic seasoning: salt pepper butter, two finest white-colour square plates for the side dishes with transparent lid (with SQ logo embossed on the lid) showcasing their contents: chocolate cake / desserts / green salad / two or three types of colourful fruits. All of these are placed against elegantly-designed mainly dark gray coloured tray, enhancing its colour contrast and highlighting the uniqueness of SQ Economy class meal presentation. Exquisite indeed!
However, nowadays as also shown in the flight review above, for Economy class in-flight meal, cheap-looking brown takeaway cardboard box is used instead. No more metal cutleries. In addition, many components as described above are removed and, on some flight, dark-coloured thin cheap-looking plastic plate is used for the main dish and placed against another cheap-looking pitch-black tray, a downgrade from the previous elegantly-designed SQ meal tray. To a certain extent, that is not how it supposed to look for a reputable five-star full-service airlines with strong legacy. A comparison of current SQ in-flight meal presentation with pre-pandemic SQ Economy class meals or with other five-star airlines competitors such as Emirates reveals how disappointing and dissatisfying it is.
It is hoped that SQ could return the sophisticated Economy class meal presentation again once pandemic impacts becoming more manageable in a foreseeable future.
Thank you for your comment.
It's true that eating food in a paper container doesn't make you feel elegant.
From an operational standpoint, it's probably more efficient.
The food itself is delicious, so it's all about the atmosphere.
As you said, I think the atmosphere of the meal is important.
Is your flight to Singapore 90% full and how much did you pay to fly Singapore airlines and does it include check in luggage?
Meal looks quite bad. Inspired by low cost air 😂
I guess many of you think that the quality of Singapore Airlines' food has gone down compared to before.
