I always enjoy my flights east with Singapore Airlines, however, choosing an eastbound carrier by its champagne label is not important to me.
Those who value such commodities will undoubtedly enjoy their Cristal.
One now awaits the moronic comments from the village idiot who trawls this site with impunity.

@ Sunil -- Which is awesome, no doubt, but also a bit of a gimmick. The airline loads a single bottle, so if everyone in first class wanted a glass, there wouldn't even be enough to go around.

Up until 2022, JAL was serving Cristal 2013 for flights to Japan

Always interesting to see what routes airlines pick as their most premium (e.g. DEL but not BOM, which also sees A380 service).

Also, not seeing JFK and SFO on the list makes me miss the era in which we had SQ Suites to both... still remember Ben's (I believe first) A380 SQ Suites review from SFO to HKG over a decade ago in 2013. How time flies!

Champagne sales are down significantly which is why we’re seeing airlines serve better champagne this year across the board.

Ben, you can consistently find '15 Cristal for ~$200 by 6-pack in retail or $250-270 for single bottle retail. Wine.com is very much consistently overpriced by a significant margin.

The modern innovation known as shipping means you can get it from a retailer in a different state. You can click the "includes stores that ship to state."

Honestly even if it does replace the Krug, it’s still an upgrade!

The modern innovation obviously did not reach teocratic states for eg like Utah.

Y'all are wrong.

You should drink Duc de Paris sparkling wine or even Welch's and "visualise yourself drinking Cristal or Krug or Taittinger or something of that kind ;)".

It was a gimmick with 8 seats that always filled up but now with the A350 with 6 seats that rarely fills up it's more reasonable. Also I have been on some flights with 2 bottles of it.

Recently flew SQ F for the first time. Like the Comtes de Champagne much better than the Krug. Roast me.
