Come on board With Me As I Tell About My Grand V.I.P. Experience Flying on Singapore Airlines Luxury Suites!

Singapore airlines first class suites On September 2007, Singapore Airlines introduced their Luxury Suites (Higher then regular first class), the most luxurious flight tickets available commercially. The Suites have been exclusive to their flagship Airbus A380, and they transcend flat beds by means of enclosed private cabins with sliding entry doors so as to envelop you in your own small lap of luxury. The inside was designed by French luxury ocean yacht builder and designer Jean Jacques Coste and comes equipped with a luxurious soft leather armchair hand-stitched by their Italian master craftsmen Poltrona Frau. Perhaps most well-recognized of all, Singapore Airlines had become the first and only commercial airline company having a full sleeper bed in the sky.

That being said, the wonderful experience was included with a large asking price. Round trip prices priced upwards to SGD$23,445 (or USD$18,410), it was seen as totally impossible for most people.

Previously, the only method for an common individual to fly in Singapore's Luxury First Class Suites appeared to be to take out a bank loan. And then I considered that nearly all of my personal net worth exists in frequent flyer mileage points rather than dollars.

So in Sept 2011, after spending a vast sum of Kris Flyer points. I was actually booked on Singapore First Class Suites to San Francisco!

I arrived at Singapore Changi Airport and proceeded to the Singapore Airlines counters for check-in. As I joined the line used for check-in, I was promptly welcomed by staff. "Good afternoon sir, how can I help you?"

A immediate realization hit me and I went "not at this time" and quickly walked away, leaving the lovely lady astonished.

I had more or less overlooked that Changi had a a beautiful check-in lounge especially for First Class and Suites customers. It looks reminiscent of a hotel entrance hall, plus there is always even a bellhop who delivers your personal travel luggage.

Traveling in the Suites also includes an invitation to The Private Room, which the employees was excited to say that it was "higher than first class".

I arrived at the lounge and was greeted by a young pretty attendant. Smiling she said "Might I guide you to The Private Room?" the pretty girl inquired.

I followed this young lady past what seemed to be 45-55 passengers in the Business Class lounge. The woman walked amazingly fast, apparently worried that I could be disgusted by the appearance of the working class. Here I was directed to a different attendee which guided me through the First Class lounge, and then through a series of automatic sliding double entrance doors before being changed to yet one more attendant.

Lastly, after 6 kilometres of secret passageways and being escorted by 2000 people, I arrived at The Private Room.

Entering the confines of The Private Room, the personnel greeted me by name. It's like they all previously knew me prior to even meeting me.

I hadn't been eager to eat but I've heard rave reviews regarding the formal dining room. So I sat down and ordered a glass of champagne and had the luscious Kobe Beef Steak in addition to Mutton Satay plate and as well the U.S. Prime Beef Burger with Foie Gras, Rocket Leaf and Fried Quail Egg. Also, plus a Mango Fruit smoothie.

Absolutely stuffed at this point, I became aware that it was in fact time for boarding. I headed over to the dedicated flight bridge just for First Class Suites passengers. Waiting for me at the end of the flight bridge was a flight attendant prepared to greet me. "Good morning, Mr. Arango!"

I then began to notice that they would address me by what ever title I selected in my Singapore Airways KrisFlyer profile. I immediately regretted not going with President or Prince.

The staff showed up instantaneously to welcome me and escorted me to my suite. There was no over head compartment in Suites so suitcases had to be placed beneath the foot rest or in independent closets. As I only had a carry on, it fit very nicely below the foot rest. Pointless to say it was probably designed with the standard measurements in mind.

Through a train carriage layout and the possibility to close up the doors to your seating area, privacy is guaranteed. The Singapore Airlines Suites product offers the further option of a double bed designed for those flyers flying together. The 2 middle chairs can be joined, the partition brought down and a big double bed made for two. This is a exceptional feature on Singapore Airlines that has been much publicized but have I met or read about someone who has had the opportunity of booking one.

There is a whole lot more I can pronounce regarding Singapore Airlines First Class Suites. But then that would probably encompass an entire book and I am sorry I do not have the time. You can visit them or their web page for more information.
