Join me on one of the world’s best first class flights on Singapore Airlines A380 Suites. It’s really in a class of it’s own, and by SQ’s own admission, it’s beyond First Class (I reviewed their Boeing 777 earlier this year). As with all my trip reports, I’ll take you through each step of the journey. From check in, the lounge offers and then onboard. What the food is like, and of course the bed! In fact there are two bed options today on the A380, a single or double!
As always I’ll give you my honest opinion to what it’s like to fly in one of the most luxurious flights within commercial aviation.

I had no idea they do NYC apartments on planes now, that’s really cool.
Probably even cheaper lol
Maybe they include complimentary rats and cockroaches
@@ElementsUnknown Sounds like someone needs to clean their apartment.
@@Nexus9118 sounds like someone doesn’t live in New York
@@jarakal135 and bigger lol
So glad we got to experience this together Will! Loved sharing reflections and geeking out over how awesome the flight was😂
The pleasure was all mine Dan. Look forward to seeing your video soon. I still can’t believe we bumped into each other, but I guess given the amount of flights we both take, it was a matter of time. Safe travels 😀
@@Trektrendy Thai airway pls because it almost bankrupt and you may never experience it
@@Ozymandias1 I know I want trek to do it too
IT WAS SO WHOLESOME WHEN HE OPENED THE DOOR XD BUT U KICKED HIM OUT LIKE A CURIOS CHILD XDDDD
I thought that was you in the opposite suite!
Fun fact: on the Boeing 747, the original intent of the hump was to install a large cocktail bar with seating area but most airlines used it to make first class very private. So I find it no surprise they are doing with with their A380. The last time I flew Singapore, the upper deck of the 747-400 was used for a premium business class. It was quite luxurious and kids got a cool jigsaw puzzle picture of the plane with the amenities kit. I liked the orange juice they gave before takeoff, it was perfect: not too sweet or sour.
Actually the original intent for the hump had nothing to do with passenger flight! It was so the cockpit was out of the way so it could easily be modified into a cargo craft with an opening nose!
@@mikeklinger1712 Now, now... calm down.
Ive been flying SQ for 40+ years. Hands down the best airline in the world. Great video mate. Booked my suites trip from JFK yesterday. Wish it was for tomorrow!
Feedback 😀
Basically an entire office just for yourself, that's insane
*hotel room- your office is clearly nice! Paid for by all your subscribers…
It could probably fit a Wailord...
When the bed is made up it looks like a small hospital room.
Shut up bot with your stolen comment
@@RiverDanube what hospitals are you seeing? 5 star hotels?!
I’ve been binge watching your videos as I’ve been off work with a dislocated elbow. As someone that’s worked in the travel industry I’ve really enjoyed the videos, I can’t work out if I’ve fallen a little bit in love with you or your lifestyle and travels, either way thanks for the entertainment Will 👍🏻
I’m binge watching his vids too but I have a broken wrist not a dislocated elbow😢😎😄
@@ckc8176 hope you’re on the mend? Do all the injured people gravitate to this channel? 😂
I’m watching this with a buckle fraction
My shoulder hurts. Not sure why. Maybe it’s my sleeping position.
@@DraftedByTheMan same. Hahaha
I love watching these videos but know I would never experience this quality. Good for him to figure all this out on his own. When he points out these small problems he's speaking to the 1% of us. I'm happy to have a window seat in coach class with no one next to me... And this is when I often fly from JFK to Haneda, Japan, 13 hours.
Well yeah if you're flying economy that's like an enormous "upgrade" especially on long flights.
Woww now thats luxury !!! For us normal folk !!
It looks very nice. Although I feel like most of the space just sits empty and unused! I think they should've put in a larger bed
its good if u want to do a quick workout
I guess that's also a selling point; if it's more utilized it probably won't look as spacious.
You and Dan - my two favorite airline reviewers. Amazing coincidence that you guys crossed paths! It's really a small world.
I assume it was planned haha
It wasn’t that’s the craziest part haha
@@Trektrendy makes it better tbh
@@Trektrendy wow that really is uncanny
@@vinny3410 I was boarding my flight and I heard, hey Will. It was really great to catch up and fly with Dan
I have really enjoyed watching your long rail journeys, but I’m not going to lie! I’m here for the aviation and I’m so glad you’ve come up with this one and I’m more then happy it’s Singapore Airlines, loved it 👏 👏 😃
I absolutely loved watching this video! It was a thrill to see you and Nonstop Dan on the same flight! You are both two of my favorite vloggers!
Man; after serving 3 kids mac and cheese and hotdogs for years, I'd probably cry actually flying and having someone serve me! I love watching your videos, and pretending that I'm flying along, possibly on a way to a well deserved vacation. Hope springs eternal ;)
I literally just binged all your videos in 3 days and I dont regret one second of it
Thanks so much for watching 🙏🏼
This is as close as I'll ever get to flying first class. Thanks for sharing the experience!
right? me too! unless I strike it rich in the goldrush, looks like I'm with you on that
In college I used to fly nonstop from SFO - SQ to visit my family a few times a year. Still my favorite airline/route ever.
As a Singaporean, I didn't even know we had such luxurious services 🤣
Yeah but it’s not worth it, the price is crazy
Same here, glad to see SIA maintaining their high standards
that's because you stay home all day lol
@@wildmm9564 only peasants need to pay this from their pocket, if you have to save up for it, this is not for you. I am going to another country to close multi-million dollar deals for the company, which is why they have no issue flying their staff on first class.
@@Thekidisalright did I ask?😂 also even if your a millionaire. It’s still not worth it?!
What a plane! What an experience! What a review! This was amazing. Although I would say the service may not be quite Airfrance level, that is a truly unique flight experience. Thank you for sharing it!
I priced the JFK-FRA round trip in SQ Suites -- nearly US$15,000. A one-way is over $9K itself, so, for economy's sake, it looks like I"ll just have to suffer through a return, Trek T.! Thanks for the review. I've flown SQ transpacitic in Business and Coach several times. (LAX-NRT/NRT-SIN/SIN-DEL/PVG-SIN, SIN-NRT-LAX and HKG-SFO.) It is a nice product wherever onboard you're seated, and you're right about that wonderful chicken satay on skewers. Cheers, and thanks for making a night of great travel viewing for me!
Wow.
That looked like an absolutely insane experience. Good on Singapore.
Smashed it! The size of these cabins really is ridiculous
Finally!! Loving the combination of train and airplane videos. Keep up the great work ✌
Also, we're still waiting for the review of taag Angola Airlines first class on their 777-300er
I like this more than Emirates. You get more room to move around in your seating area, the decor isn’t as gaudy, and the service feels a bit warmer.
And NONSTOP DAN!!!!!!
It probably helps being served by people whose passports aren’t being held by their employer so they aren’t indentured servants!
@@annwilliams6438 geez, Ann. And what exactly is it that you think makes you so special? Your own country has fallen apart and yet you have the audacity to criticize others.
I can’t believe how big your suite was! That’s insane on an airplane. How funny that you ran into Dan and Oskar! Very much enjoyed this review Mr. Trendy!❤️👍✈️
Dude! What an awesome video! Thank you so much to everyone involved in that and you weren’t kidding about those Singapore Airlines foods, man… So beautiful and so much… What a blessing! I’m really glad you had a great time on that trip and thank you for taking us along for the ride @Trek Trendy & @Squarespace! Joyful fun and peaceful blessings to all!!! 🤟🏽🍓🤓🪶💗🤩🥳💐🎂🦉😇
Wow, the food must be fresh if the f/a was reluctant to reheat any leftovers and thought it wouldn't taste good. I'm sure I would love it just as much even if I had a second course in the last hour of the flight.
This absolutely incredible! It also motivates me to really work my ass off in life so that I can experience 1st class, your review was very well put together bravo 👏🏽
Working hard alone won’t get you that kind of money.
You have to be benefitting from the work of others.
@@TesterAnimal1 No, I’m an Attorney and can afford to fly first class often
I've done a fair bit of air travel in my day, across America MANY times and out of the Continent a fair amount, including a 16 hour flight to South Africa, and six 9 hour flights to and from Japan. Singapore Air is an absolute dream. Definitely my favorite airline of all time. Best coach food I've ever had was surprisingly on the South African Airways flight from Johannesburg to Cape Town. I would really love to see you fly on an African airline and get down in the cheaper of first class and business class options at some point.
Any other country's airlines are better than what we get in the USA.
Fantastic in depth video as always, love travelling the world with you mate
The room ...wow!!! The dessert servings... challenge met! That bathroom is the stunning. The jammies and private room is the best.
Great video! Thank you!
Found your videos like 2 weeks ago and they’re awesome
Love this! The irony is that most people who watch this won’t be able to afford these ‘hotel rooms’ in the sky 😂. Will have to continue being excited about resting my head against the window while pretending I’m sleeping horizontally
Well I just feel like I’m living my best life ( through you). Captivating and thorough. You’re very good at showcasing these airlines. I like your voice as well. Calming.
Thank you
I really like how your always honest with your reviews.
Keep them coming Will. I think the comments make it clear we all love your videos and feel as if we actually know you as a friend. I’d love to see a vlog where you tell us the places you HAVNT been!
Oooh this is so good! Great vid as always Will! Your consistency is on point! Keep it up 👊🏽
Wow--this was really a treat! Thanks for another great vid, Will!
I remember being stuck in Frankfurt Airport for an entire day, and I thought I’d mostly forgotten all about it until I saw the beginning of this video and it brought it all back.
It would be great if you could publish at the end of each video hoe much and how you paid for the trip? Points, sponsored, actual cash, etc. A lot of RUclipsrs do that and I think it adds some authentication to the videos. These flights are so expensive, and if you have figured out a great way via points to pay for them, then share the method. The more the merrier . Overall great videos and quality. I watch each one
VERY true. Flying mini-apartments are what make the real bucks on megaliners like the A380. I think this is why airlines with this plane are pushing the limits of luxury vs technology with their upper deck. Also, I think their design teams are like children given a blank check and allowed to go nuts with the design in ways their fathers never dreamed was possible. LMAO...
@Don Friedman, Trek Trendy has been doing these videos for over 7 years now. So he started out small and worked his way up; this wasn't a full time job at first. Several of his videos have well over a million views which brings in a lot of money. Also, now that his channel is his full time job, the money that he spends on the cost of the tickets can be written off at the end of the year as a business expense.
And a total carbon emission footprint for each journey.
Thanks for this… thrilled for his success!
I heard a price tag recently of $13,000.
How cool that you met up with Dan! Another epic review! I think you’ve almost convinced me to try caviar! :)
I has a friend in high school that lived with his family in Singapore in the winter for school, but came back to Seattle Washington for the summers. He loved living there and man ever since seeing his pictures and hearing his story's I have allways wanted to go!
Instantly subscribed... What a beautiful reviews you make. You're right on the spot, and for me this is a special treat because this is closest to a plain I probably ever get, not to mention this luxury first class experience. Many thanks and many good thoughts to you. Take care.
I wish I could experience this, thank you could making this video, that allows us to see what its like up on the first class seats.
The chair does seem to occupy an awkward position. Your choices are to stare at the wall (take off position), the doorway (with back to window?!), or towards the windows but too distant to see very much. I would place the chair in the far corner (no rotation) and the bed along the bulkhead. Who needs windows behind their head while sleeping?! Hope you partied with Dan & Oscar afterwards
Came across your channel a few weeks ago and have binged a ton of content. Informative, good hints and tips and a great loo review, great work
being a tourist guide I fly quite often, not the first class, of course. I love your videos as it is made and especially love the music, it is perfect for create the atmoshere!
This is great! I just started watching your vlogs recently - after being a big fan of Non-Stop Dan - and then I booked a SQ Business flight and was just watching Dan on SQ Suites... thinking "wish this was Trek Trendy..." mainly because I love the food bits and Dan is a vegan, mainly non drinker.... and then up you popped on the same flight. Totally brilliant! Keep up the great work.
That looked like one of your best trips yet, here's another idea, maybe you could review all inclusive places 🤠
Amazing trip. Your channel is my go-to for traveling vicariously until i start traveling again myself. Informative, straightforward, and compact reviews. Friendly personality.
Thank you for being on our flight! Looking forward to seeing you again!
As a singaporean,I am happy that Singapore airlines is being recognised
I flew SIN-SYD a few days ago in Suite 1a and I agree it is an awesome experience. I will definitely try it again but on a day flight next time.
Out of curiosity, how much does Suite 1A cost for such a flight?
@@psychalogy depends of the length of the flight I believe
So good to see the lounges I used to go when it was normal to fly!
I saw a commercial for this the other day and I was thinking of you going on it and showing us it, so now I'm so excited to seeing this!!!!
Its amazing that a little over a century of plane history, humans are now able to build full size NYC apartments in the sky!
Absolutely amazing.. I can't even describe the things I would do to fly this way.. unfortunately it is way out of my price range... but I enjoyed seeing you experience it
Fun facts, 8/10 people who fly in suites didn’t pay from their own pockets, work your way up to C-suite in MNCs and you will always get the opportunity to enjoy such luxury.
I quickly got addicted to your videos When I found your Amtrak video I’ve been watching all day.. lol all I want in return is the name of those timberlands you wear.
Great product! The foods and space looks amazing! Thanks for the great video.
What a "mind blowing experience"! I would be so hedonistic and try to book the longest flight that SQ has with their A-380. 🤣. I am afraid they would have to drag me kicking and screaming off the plane after it landed as I would be wanting to just move in for good! Thanks, Will for sharing this experience 👍🏻.
Also one of the perks of flying out of SNG with the suite class is the 'Private Room' only reserved for Suite class (no first class guests allowed).
Absolutely - unfortunately this still remains closed at SIN
Great review!! 👍👍👍
I came from Nonstop Dan's channel and it was great to see the regular food and a different point of view as well!!
You've got a new subscriber!!! Loving all the reviews!! Thanks for a great one!
It's truly amazing how huge that plane is!
This was incredible! I just went to JFK, Terminal 4 (and NYC), for the first time ever last month, and my little 737 WestJet parked between Emirate's A380 and Singpore's A380... so it's damn cool to know what was inside of Singapore's! (everyone knows what Emirates is like).
I don't recall these First Class rooms, though?? Have they always been like this since Singapore Airlines bought A380s or are these new additions/upgrades to first class?
No. The Singapore Airlines A380 has always had first class suites, but they used to be located on the main deck in a 1-2-1 configuration with 12 of them. After they retrofitted the plane, it got a new first class suite on the upper deck in a 1-1 configuration, which was much larger than before, but there is now only 6 of them. The refitted A380s also feature a new business and economy class.
We love Singapore Airlines and this is starting to make Emirates look like British Airways.
Too broke for this
The surprise cameo I didn't think I needed. Would enjoy seeing you and Nonstop Dan do a collab. Safe travels always!
Your channel is informative and inspiring for anyone who wants to travel. Amazing!
That looks like an amazing experience! Fifth freedom flights always equal savings :)
I flew in this new suite back in 2019 elsewhere (it was not available for the JFK route then), and I second your review. I am not a blogger so I did not get any special treatment, but it was still spectacular! SQ outstanding service is real.
Wow, that was a lovely experience on a plane. Thank you for sharing.
I love your reviews on things you are one of my favourite RUclipsr ☺️ I love your content!
Not sure where you go next from this review Will. Do you have to start from the bottom again once you’ve completed the game? Can’t get any better than SQ A380 first class surely. Ryanair next week then? 😜
Also, delighted that your subscriber numbers have been flying up recently, great job 👌
As a Singaporean, I really enjoy seeing youtuber reviewing on Singapore Airline despite i have not ride it before except for silk air before it merge
Fantastic video! Love the cameo by Dan and Oscar too! Keep up the entertaining content! 👏
So awesome. How I wish I could experience this in the future. Thanks for showing this.
The price is insane. Cannot imagine why anyone would pay that to fly. I really like the train videos, but this too was a great video!
that price is irrelevant if youre a millionaire or an executive with a massive travel budget with your compan
Or compared to flying private.
Most people who can afford that type of flight can make the money back within a few days to a couple of weeks in a well-diversified portfolio during a good market run. In other words, they never miss it.
@@jamiecloud1897 no because it dont make economic sense to fly first class regularly. Its cheaper staying @ a top notch hotel @ your destination to ward off jet lag than paying exuberant amount of money flying in what is still a confined space for a few hours. Wealthy people have Learjet's anyway .I dont understand why anyone would fly first class . On other modes of transport yes but not on a plane
@@westnblu You don't need to understand it. They fly First Class because they can.
A dreamlike trip on this magnificent plane and service! Always fun to see how the rich live their lives!😄👍🏽
@Marie Armstrong It is potentially within the reach of almost anyone with good credit. You can earn Airline points. Get some AMEX cards, they give a lot. Buy everything with those card and pay back end of month as their APR is quite high. But you earn points. Then look for points sales. Loads of different ways. For instance, I collected over 30k Avios points just grocery shopping over the last 2 and a half years. 65k gets you a Qsuite flight from London to Qatar in Qatar Airways. That is the best business class in the world.
I enjoyed this video. Very relaxing❤
One of my favorite airline RUclipsrs! ❤️🤗
Can you do cruise reviews too?
Awesome and interesting review as always, thanks for that! 👍🏻
It may have been asked a few times, but: Is there a special reason or background you always wear NASA clothes?
Don't get me wrong, I like NASA "stuff", but it made me curious that's why I ask 😉
Kind regards from Germany, Philipp 👋🏻
Wow! That was an awesome video! Thanks for sharing.
Your videos definitely provide some fantastic ideas as well as something to attain in the world of travel.
I flew this suite in 2019, it was fantastic and quite affordable straight off the SA website. However, SA's business is such high tier, that I think I'd rather fly their Business then keep doing the Suite class, it was very sweet!
As long as I'm in a lieflat I have all I need.
The seat and bed for this product were designed and made by the company I work for in the UK :)
This is the most luxurious yet spacious flight I've ever seen in my life!
Nice to see such comradery with Nonstop Dan. Love both the channels.
There's almost too much luxury to receive full value from in the time you are on the plane. I do appreciate the decor, not over-the-top ornate like you find in some mideast planes. And for me, the catering had enough luxury to satisfy me.
When someone devises a new luxury that can be fitted onto a plane, airlines like Singapore will install it. That said, I'm relieved that they didn't have a space-and-weight wasting shower.
I cringe everytime I see people hold chopsticks wrongly/badly. Anyway, great review - good to see Singapore slowly returning their F service experience.
I always love your videos, I have met you once on the Virgin video you did at Heathrow. Other great video. Well done!!!
I really enjoyed this video; keep it up!
I was a bit confused about you taking off the mask inside the german airport. With the still ongoing mask mandate, didn’t anybody at the airport remind you of that? We all know how uncomfortable masks can be, especially while talking/walking at the same time. But you still should respect those mandates.
Apart from that, it was a lovely review. Looks like a cosy experience for a longer flight. The turning chair is just extravagant 😅
Germans love their rules 😅
Blah blah blah. No one wants to wear masks anymore.
I would feel bad for all the people crammed like sardines in economy
I love both nonstop Dan and Davis
I really enjoyed watching this. Thank you!!
Thanks for watching and joining me on this adventure. Lots more First Class AND Rail journeys coming up (i'm currently on a sleeper train as I write this!) Let me know what you'd like to see on the channel next...
Oh and here's the link to Dan's channel ruclips.net/user/nonstopdan :)
Looking forward to your upcoming train vlog!
Absolutely love your content your channel is my new way to fall asleep at night. Because of my disability it's hard for me to travel just in general so being able to see all these amazing places and all this amazing upperclass way of traveling is such a treat for me thank you thank you and keep it up cheers my friend keep the champagne going
What is the significance of the NASA clothing?
you know i have wondered
what is the best flight you have ever taken
hey trek hong kong just opened up, can you do a cathay pacific review pls
Absolutely rude of you, to run through the Frankfurt Terminal without a facemask; Breaking the German law. Because we do have mask duty in Offiziale buildings and the airport as well!
You should show more respect to local law, if you‘re travelling around the World!
You make it sound like he was cackling, waving double middles at the locals.
He’s always seemed a very polite chap to me.
Nazi
@@ElementsUnknown it was rude to the other people and against the law.
Usually he is a polite Person, thats why i follow him. But it was absolutely Not correct to take off the Face mask immediately, when he left the Lounge at Frankfurt Airport, because there was still existing a mask duty inside the whole building.
And this is disrespectful to other people!
Your videos are so enjoyable to watch!!
Man your channel has grown so much since the days you had 20k subs, i used to comment that u will blow up soon, and man it has come to reality, Congrats man.
Why can't you just keep your mask on?
LOVE THIS COLLAB!!
I had suite 3A Heathrow to Singapore 4 years ago, loved it 😊
this is insane! good work as always will! :D
