Great video! This new cabin looks so much better than the one I’ve been on on my SQ flight last year.
I really hope I can fly Singapore Airlines again soon. Their crew was so lovely!
I have tried their older seats on the 777 which is the same on the older 350 I think, they're quite good still haha but storage wise new one is slightly better :)
I absolutely love how SQ programmed and designed the IFE and seat features on their new A350 cabins! A few of my family members went on their A350 to SFO and they were impressed by it. Nice video as always, Jayden!
It’s a very sleek and comfy product :)
The Uluru aerial flyover was such a treat Jayden! I love it when a flight path takes you over a major iconic landmark and this is a UNESCO one. The clear weather was a major bonus. 😁
A most enjoyable flight with you J! I loved the view of Ayer’s Rock too.
Awesome Jayden! I sat in the same row on a flight from Bangkok to Singapore back in May. Two seats with a large gap between the window and the window seat. Thoroughly enjoyable.
I'm planning the next Singapore trip right now. Your video here was perfect timing on what to expect!. Thanks Jayden.
hahaha no worries Ronnie
Congratulations to the lovely couple, wishing them happiness throughout their marriage 💑
Another spectacular flight experience with SQ. Despite the back row I definitely believe you chose well and had a good service provided. The view of Uluru was just perfect!
Thanks Nacho! It was a good back row seat haha
I literally just returned from KUl via SIN with SQ. Possibly my fave airline. As always, great video, J!
thanks Tim!!! I’m doing ADL-HKT with SQ in 3 weeks time!!
@@JaydenWong what is HKT please ?
Great video Jayden! I have never been on it but Singapore looks awesome. You always seem to have a good flight experience on Singapore.
Hope your well 😃
Hi Koren! Hope you’re well too! Stay warm and dry!!
I just booked a business class flight with Singapore at the start of next year... its been so long since I flew with them, so I'm very excited. Great review as always!
wow I’m sure you are!! Remember to do book to cook if eligible!!
@@JaydenWong definitely will do
Jayden, you're still showing the full takeoff run and I totally appreciate it ;)
my pleasure Adam!!
just discovered your channel! super informative & awesome content, keep it up mate!
Thank you for flying with us ☺️
I look forward to watching your weekly videos. The quality of the videos is always excellent and your descriptive audio is very good. How I wish the food on my recent Qatar Airways flights was as tasty as your meals on this Singapore Airlines flight.
oh no sorry to hear that the food you got on Qatar wasn't on par with SQ, I only flew them once and luckily I got good food. Thanks for watching Paul!!
Thanks for a cool video. SIA never fail to impress in regards to their service. Even in economy class we can get outstanding service!
Thanks again man, great vid!
Thanks for watching! Appreciate your comment :)
Great video Jayden. Lots of detail. Thanks.
thanks Teresa!!
I absolutely love Singapore Airline's, always top notch service, I flew the A380 last time to Singapore and it was a joy🥰
I miss their 380!! Only done it once from Hong Kong to Singapore
@@JaydenWong I only did it once too from Sydney to Singapore, what a joyous flying experience 🤩
Cool video hope you enjoyed you flight with Singapore Airlines really enjoyed it:D
thanks mate!!
Another great review to watch before my flight as I'll be on both a350 and a330! Thanks so much!
amazing! you'll enjoy I bet!
@@JaydenWong Thanks, I'm really excited actually! It's been a long time since I've been on an Airbus too, and that was easyJet!
Another great vlog Jayden cheers! 😊👍🏻
thank you!! :)
Excellent trip report Jayden👌. Liked and enjoyed
thanks Joshua!!
Well what an excellent video Jayden. The guy doing the narration as crossing the Tuas border could work in radio! 😂😂😂 Nice view from your friends place too! Lovely wedding! Nice 👍 work!
Yeah he’s got such calming and sexy voice!! Thanks for watching Wayne 😁😁
Whenever I travel on SIA. I always enjoyed the food service they provided. The steward and stewardess are very polite, courteous and helpful. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Another flight I enjoy most is Cathay Pacific Airlines 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'm glad you mentioned Cathay too haha! thanks for watching!!
90 mins at security! 🤣... Nice video this time with humor as usual and seems SQ has improved their regional service! Awesome and of cos a one year old a350 is always nice! 🇸🇬❤️🇦🇺
Avoid the morning peak in ADL!!
I've always been watching your channel but I don't often comment on your videos. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
haha thanks for commenting this time :))
Hey cutie ☺️ great video as always, always cheers me up to watch your work man =) x
Hehehe thanks dude!!!
nice to see footage from Singapore too! not just the flight
thanks for watching Alex!!!
Flew the exact same aircraft from Manila to Singapore in June. The cabin is modern + good IFE & seat features!
thanks for watching Paolo! Glad you had a good flight with them!!
Well done - once again and excellent video! Loved the commentries! Ha ha I wished your travelling companion said something instead of sleeping so much!!
Hahaha it was an early flight, if it wasn’t for filming I would’ve slept too😂
Well Jayden your comments section is really coming alive 😂.
Excellent all round video as expected with loads of personality bit by bit hints of your personal life, which we’re all also interested in 😎
Haha don’t take the wrong hints🫣🫣😂😂
I’ll be taking this airline on a 3 leg journey from Phoenix to Cebu. Chose it specifically so I could layover at Changi Airport. Can’t wait
I took the Boeing 777-300ER yesterday, the crew were really friendly! Also I don’t know if you think this but I think the inflight entertainment is great.
Yeah their IFE is one of the best!
I never knew about the Uluru until I saw this video, what an interesting sight! Also, this year’s National Day Parade was the last one to be held at the current floating platform as it will be redeveloped into NS Square starting next year. Gonna miss the fireworks view at the floating platform!
it's a remarkable landmark of Australia, a must visit if you're exploring beyond the big cities like Sydney and Melbourne!
Hope you enjoyed the national day!! Thanks for watching!!
Wow! The cabin looks stunning! SQ really outdid themselves. Good joke 12:01 haha. looks like sq could be a very worth option to fly next! until then! great review as always!!!!
haha thanks for watching! :)
@@JaydenWong always :)
You are so underrated you spend so much money on plane rides you deserve 1000000 million
aww thanks!!
Hi Jayden thank you for amazing video Singapore airlines I believe is very good my agent been on it myself. The food very good. Thank you for showing us some of the wedding hope you all had a good time.
thanks Maureen!! Can't go wrong with Singapore Airlines!!
Love theA350.Good job
thanks!! :)
You have SO many friends Jayden. Not surprising given what a great guy you are 💥💥
Loved the giant curry puff. 🍛
It annoys me when people keep their seats down during meal time. Good on the flight attendant for asking them to raise their chair.
The sky looked so familiar for Singapore which indicates its humid.
Right here right now... Im saying thank you again 😛
haha being a RUclipsr is fun!! You meet friends with similar interest and hobbies. Thanks for watching!!
Wow... decent food, and a decent economy loo !
Hi Jayden, when you passed over Uluru, I agree with you, it was more than likely the first large rock. ( Pretty big, in the scheme of things, ain't it ? )
The second formation may have been "The Olga's".....but please excuse me for not referring to them by their indigenous name.
The Aussie Outback, is pretty cool , and I think it was great the captain pointed out these amazing icons
Ahh I see! I just googled it, the real name for Olgas is called the Kata Tjuta :) So glad the captain let us know about it!!
I think you'll find you filmed Ulura twice from different angles. Kata Tjuta are a number of smaller (still big) rocks.
Great trip report! I have no idea why I laughed so much at 22:24 😂
best thing to do after a long day!!!
Great video. And your friend is cute.
Oh wow, the banquet food looks delicious 😋
it was fab!
Brilliant flight review.SIA is always a guarantee
thanks Yannis 😄😄
I like singapore airlines and i also subscribed to your channel
I shouldn't be the only one dancing on your intro every single time my god hahaha
😂😂😂😂
A two “coat hook” video! It looked like a great flight although your very big friend seemed to take up a lot of your seat as well. You really are a man of mystery with all of the friends you travel with so I just wonder, although your personal life is definitely none of my business. How nice that you got to go to a friend’s wedding. The food looked fabulous. Finally, so who (what me? Nosy?) was the guy who did a swan dive onto the bed at the end? At first I thought it was you but it was not. Thanks for the great well balanced video Jayden. Cheers from Colin.
Hi Colin!! It was my first time attending a Chinese wedding so it was definitely something to remember of!! The guy I shared my hotel room with flew in from Brisbane on the same day. He lives there and just like me, is originally from Hong Kong and came to Australia for education :)
I went back to Australia after this trip, he went to Hong Kong to see family and friends!!
Nice! At first I thought they only serve one meal like your previous trip report.
I’ll upload the return flight to Melbourne soon. Only one meal :/
Hi Jayden, It’s great that to know that the Pilots on Singapore Airlines pointed out Uluru. I know Qantas does this if they happen to fly past it during the day. I like flying Thai Airways to Australia when leaving BKK, as usually they will fly past the part of Indonesia where you get to see the volcanoes🌋 . Last time I did this was in 2017, in one of their B747’s . Unless I fly Lufthansa to Europe again, I don’t see the Likelihood of flying in a B747 again..
Yeah I saw it on the news the other day that a Qantas pilot flew ‘zig zag’ over the rocks area so people on both sides could see Uluru!! Thanks for watching Paul!!

Hi Jayden, Your so cute ☺️
nice trip, i love fly singapore airlines
thanks for watching!!
its been a while ive heard the term "people mountain people sea" in any vlog whoever speaks the language will get it :) haha nice coverage 👍
thanks😆
beautiful thanks for sharing
my pleasure once again😁😁 thanks for watching!!
Thanks for posting this! I’ve reserved row 69 for my wife and I in October SIN-BNE but could not find any reviews of these seats.
69/70 tomaYto tomaHto😂
You’ll get plenty of storage space on the window side👍🏼Not for take off or landing though. thanks for watching!
Thanks for this vlog! Everyone have an amazing day! Ciao.
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks!!
Great video Jayden.
I really miss the economy seats on the A330 and 777ER
Being taller and on the wider side I find these new seats so uncomfortable.
My knees are jammed into the seat in front and the seats are hard.
Never had this problem with SQ before.
That's ok it gives the wife and I a chance to try maybe bamboo or Vietnam Airlines in the future.
Same here, flew the same flight in June and felt the seats cramped and terrible...... bums on seats $$$
Bamboo is cheap if you don’t need domestic connection, do give them a try
I flew back to Australia on the 777, so much better comfort wise!!
We might need to start buying through a TA to try and get the domestic connections to both these airlines on the same ticket
Maybe we'll even spring for premium economy in the future.
This vidio is so good
Cool plane ✈️
very well made!
thank you Robin!!
wow you flew on my flight and it was my birthday on the 6 june i was in the same cabin and i didnt even notice you, Dam It.
On the thumbnail, is he just your mate or your partner? Btw, both of you look gorgeous... keep up the vids
mate hahaha
thanks!
Excellent mate... WOW...
thanks Pradeep!!
@@JaydenWong Welcome Buddy.. Take care..Just saw your Filipino flight its like SCOUT planes which are a part of Sing airlines- SINGAPORE to Coimbatore CJB airports.. Very one sided service small flight... Services are mediocre mate
Your videos are nice, singapore airlines is wonderful😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤
Lessgo! My national airline! :)
❤️❤️🇸🇬
Happy National day lol. Sorry I’m late
You've met your match in drama queenery! Zut alors! Ce n'est pas possible. That wedding banquet looked amazing. I went to one such in HK once. My partner was a senior family member which required him to drink a toast at every table. He does not drink alcohol so delegated the drinking part to me. I have never been more drunk and was barely able to be a proper English gent at all
Hahaha yes interesting how they had to toast at every table. BTW it was my first time at a Chinese wedding!! Thanks Derek!
I think you’re a saint taking the “C” seat, especially how there’s not a full bulkhead behind it. Didn’t you get bumped into all the time? Ps “Young Covid Baby” 😂😂🥰🥰
Not really tbh!! I get bumped more sitting at emergency exit row at the front💀😂
Love the video! Could you tell me how tall you are and also how tall your friend is? Just so I have a good idea how much space there is. Thanks 😊
I am 178cm and friend is 183 :)
thanks Danielle!
is the new economy seat on this new a350/ a380 as comfortable as the one on their b777-300er?
and as always, i loved all your video because of how detailistic it is, keep it up! 😊
TBH comfort wise they’re about the same to me. The 777 ones got footrest tho and of course it’s wider than the 350 because the 777 fuselage is wider :)
@@JaydenWong awesome!! thank you!
Great video
thanks Kevin!!
Cute couple
cute couple of friend :)
Hope you enjoyed your stay in Singapore 😃
i certainly did!!
you guys are cute couple
How do you keep such a steady hand during filming ? Nice videos 😊👍
practise 🤣 Been doing this for 6 years haha
0:38 people mountain people sea haha
The flight seat look like premium economy. Jayden you should doing pillow war with your friend.
Hello Jayden watching you from Japan🤩
thank you Akyama!! Replying from Australia ☺️
the guy called kapil that checked jaydens boarding pass was the same guy at the airport that we were checking in with when my grandpa was playing with singapore to india
ahh nice!!
was there live TV on this flight? i'm on the A350-900 from BNE to SIN in 3 weeks and live tv would be awesome
Their A350 long haul configured aircraft has live TV. I was on a regional and I don’t think we had it
CoatttHooook!!lol love ur videos!!!
haha thank you!! :)
Hey Jayden, I’m glad you enjoyed the flight! It looked and felt overall very good too!
I’m from Singapore and thus, while based in Sydney, will almost always fly SQ. On my most recent SYD-SIN flight earlier in July, I was disappointed for the B773ER economy seats were showing their age (mine and my partner’s seats could recline on their own without pushing the recline button, seat padding worn thin), very dry cabin environment; however, the dealbreaker was the woeful catering out of Kingsford-Smith.
Thankfully, on the return leg to SYD, it was the much more comfy, quiet and more humid A380 with the most current cabin product, and much better catering out of Changi, as is normally expected of SQ.
I flew red-eye SIN MEL on a 777-300ER in June. Was very happy with the 3-3-3 even though it was an older plane. That being said, there was no dinner served, only a breakfast before landing. SQ day flights are heaps better!
Yes, I have taken SQ’s red eye flights post-pandemic, they have really cut back on a lot of service and amenity. (Then, again, most airlines have, too.) But their day flights remain great, as you say!
I love Airbus A350 my next favorite to Airbus A380
They’re both my top 2 as well!
I cant wait to fly on SQ in december
can’t wait to see your vid!!
5:51 had I been your mate, would have happily swapped the window seat with you bro 👍
dunno why buy your friend and you do look like you guys make a great couple 💑 😍
he has a fiancé!!😂😂😂
Yes they look like they’d make a great couple because he’s bigger and Jayden is shorter
@@JaydenWong oops
Hi Jayden 👋. Great review 👍🏻. You can't go wrong choosing SQ anytime as far as I am concerned. They have been my favorite airline for so many years. It is sad though to see them "cutting back" on some of their on board services especially the quality/portion size of their meal service. I suppose if it's absolutely necessary to remain profitable they must do so. Glad I wasn't your flight attendant on this flight as you " worked the poor FAs ragged"🤣. I can pretty much guarantee you that if you had tried that on most other airlines that the FAs would have laughed at your requests. Asking for water in Economy Class before take off seems a little "too entitled" my friend. Just teasing you Jayden.🤣 Seriously, pre-departure is a really busy time for them and in the U.S. they generally are "not paid" until the doors close. Take care and have a fun weekend.
Thanks John!! Wait til you find out on overnight flights, they don’t even serve dinner😫
Don’t worry, I did walk to the galley to ask for the water haha, I tried to minimise their workload as much as I can. But that’s also an airport/airline problem, airports like Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Adelaide has security before the gate so you can’t bring liquid onboard. Some airlines deal with this problem by leaving a bottle of water for everyone on their seats. Should they have done that, I wouldn’t need to ask for a cup of water haha. From security to meal service, it’d be 2 hours without water and I’d rather look annoying then thirst myself, especially if I have to do this all the water! Helps to reduce bloating too if you keep hydrated.
You make a good point regarding cutbacks. One transatlantic airline, namely Jet Blue, is an exception ... perhaps by offering the sort of Y catering offered years ago it wants to generate favourable publicity.
@@alexmcwhirter6611 Yes, JetBlue is my favorite airline in the States. Their "Mint Class" is the best "Business/First Class(domestic) for transcontinental flights. As an "old timer" I was spoiled flying back in the " golden age" of commercial aviation when taking a flight was an enjoyable experience and the flight attendants actually enjoyed their jobs. To be fair, there was none of the hassle of TSA and the strict "health regulations" that all passengers have to put up with these days. "C'est la vie".
@@johnvsymons Yes I agree. But Jet Blue's transatlantic product is better than the domestic one.
@@alexmcwhirter6611 I will be looking forward to trying it. Thanks
The crew trusted you and gave you 2 snacks, hahahaha!!!!!
😁
22:23 Jayden's friend is so funny
Hah mate , what seats were you in ? We flying to SingaporeAir soon to Singapore and like the 2 seats .. looks like they are good. And obviously they are window seats
I just have a question,
So if your seat is economy, does that mean the normal seats will be the same as yours? Because I’m going to Singapore soon😅
The food portion is very small. They used to have bigger portion when I flew every month to Melbourne.
totally!! I remember it was bigger too :/
That's something as a local here in Singapore I feel is not helping SQ sustaining her branding. Yes cost cutting is a new norm but they took out the salads which is sad... But still proud of Singapore Airlines and latest news is that we are forecasting 90 percent pre COVID levels by end of 2022!
Hi Jayden, just wanna ask you that do you have any idea of what special meal options are available for customers?
Special meals in SQ economy were like in business class where you can choose a dish but it’s for your dietary requirements. Could be vegan meals, child meal, or as specific as vegetarian Indian meal :)
I notice you were seated at the last row which is two seats row? How do you find your experience there especially with the toilets right behind from your seat?
it was great TBH, there was a big space in the galley for people to wait for the loo so I wasn't disturbed or anything at all :)

You guys such a cute couple 👍👍👍
Jfyi I am one of your new subscriber from Tampa FL, love all your video and all your working hard, you doing great job buddy 👍👍👍keep up and don’t give up🙏🙏🙏
Flew the same flight a few days b4 you and was really disappointed with the seating. Suppose it's all bums on seats for revenue not passenger comfort. Food and crew were good with a bit off turbulence thrown in. Rebooked and payed a little bit extra for my return trip back next month knowing now what the seating is like. I won't comment on Adelaide's Immigration departure experience but ............
Always pick the front rows when coming back to Adelaide. Even if you’re in business😂😂😂💀 sorry to hear about your experience with them
hi, will you recommend this last row seat? is there a lot of noise coming from the gallery / toilets ? is there actually extra space or does the seat feels more spacious because of the 2 seats configuration instead of the 3 configuration like other rows?
absolutely! Definitely more (floor)space on the window side. Actual seats are the same
Main disadvantage is you get off last. But other than that, most of the duration you are up in the air flying with extra space and unrestricted recline anytime you want including during the meal service!
@@JaydenWong hi thanks for sharing. do you feel more motion at the last row seats ? does it get extremely rocky and shaky during air turbulence ? heard from reviews that back of the plane experiences much more motion that the middle part of the plane. did u experience any motion sickness?
@@juneyeo1169 for me not at all, A350 is generally quite smooth anyways, plus turbulence don't last long :)
@@JaydenWong is there a lot of noise from the gallery or the flushing of the toilets that caused you discomfort or disturbance during your flight ? :)
as I will be taking a night flight. Thanks !
A brave man literally the worst seat but you took it like a champ
😂😂😂 for the boys!!
@@JaydenWong Respect 🙏
La vie est belle !
oui en effet!
@@JaydenWong Jayden, bravo! Happy for you!!!
Was there much noise from the galley
I flew with them to BKK about 3 weeks ago the only thing I didn't like was the movie selection for some reason they have changed it.
😮😮 that can be annoying if you fly a lot with them and end up with the same content on the tv
FYI, cabin crew doesn’t prepare the cabin with pillow and a blanket. That is done by cleaners
What, you think cleaners are inferior?
Would you recommend your seat choice or do people tend to bump into that seat?
Definitely yes! though you will the last to disembark. didn’t find the bumping or proximity to galley to be an issue :)
