Review: Emirates A380 business class (Dubai to Sydney)
Apr 23, 2025, 05:43 PMThanks for the review David, much appreciated. Is it an anomaly that you were on an "unrefurbished" A380? I'm on EK415 in biz in a few weeks time, and hope to enjoy the refurbished productMy understanding was that DXB-SYD (and return) was going to be one of the routes flown exclusively with ...

Hotel Indigo Changi Airport to open by 2028
Apr 27, 2024, 05:09 PMSingapore is all about "artistic liberty" when it comes to pre-contruction sketches. As but one example, I vividly remember seeing the initial advertising sketches for the Pan Pacific Orchard, and it appeared to be surrounded by open green spaces, trees, parkland etc which, of course, is a comple...

SQ pjs - I know flying First/Suites you get a Givenchy PJs set, but when flyi...
Dec 21, 2014, 08:50 PMUnfortunately, no PJ's in business on SQ but, if there is a first cabin in the aircraft that you're on, it can't hurt to ask for a set.
