A Singapore Airlines first class flight that left me disappointed (no, really)…

There are a few things in life I consider to be guarantees. For example, if you show me a Harry Potter movie, I guarantee I’ll fall asleep. If you ask me to go through the full body scanner at a US airport, I guarantee I’ll be getting a massage in a private room instead. And if you put me in Singapore Airlines first class, I guarantee my expectations will be exceeded… or so I thought.

I just flew Singapore Airlines first class, and for the first time I can remember, was actually legitimately disappointed. I’ll save the details for the trip report – consider this a teaser. Though of course feel free to guess, and if anyone gets it right I’ll be happy to say so.

And no, the disappointment wasn’t that the first lady of Zimbabwe and her entourage were taking up half of the first class cabin…

Same route, same experience (10 years later). I would like to post a picture of the main course but unfortunately it’s not possible. It tasted like frozen and heated up in the microwave. No salad. No sides of any kind. This was supposed to be First Class, I have seen better food in Economy flying other airlines. On the return flight in business the main course turned out to be an appetizer. „Wholesome red lentil soufflé“. The whole dish fitted onto a spoon. Nuts were thrown in a plastic bag onto my table.

All the Singapre logos on silverware, plates, and glasses were not pointing at you?

The Captain's wife upgraded on board and she keeps on going to the cockpit and back again? Or an infant in First?
