Good morning from Singapore!

I’m not quite sure what time it is, though I’m fairly well rested after the last sector on SQ11 from Tokyo to Singapore, where I managed to get about five hours of sleep. Want a good trivia question for a friend or loved one that’s not a frequent traveler (or even a friend or loved one that is a frequent traveler)? What flight is longer, Boston to London or Tokyo to Singapore? I find that 95% of people get the answer wrong.

Seriously, Singapore is consistent. The crews range from very good to phenomenal, and I had another average crew (using the range above) from Tokyo to Singapore this evening.

After landing I proceeded to the Silver Kris Lounge, where I was the only guest, minus about a dozen people that are part of the overnight cleaning crew. It’s quite nice to have a lounge all to yourself.

I have no clue what time of day it is, but life is good.

Let me throw one quick question out there. A few weeks back I asked how y’all define a redeye, and just about everyone had a different answer. Most of you agreed that my flight at the time from Washington to San Francisco, departing at 10PM and arriving at 1AM, was not a redeye.

So I’m curious, was the last sector of SQ11, that I just got off of, a redeye? It departs Tokyo at 8:50PM and arrives in Singapore at 3:05AM.

For the BOS-LHR vs. NRT-SIN, I vote NRT-SIN. I didn't Google it, so correct me (PLEASE correct me) if I'm wrong, but I think that the Atlantic flight is only 6.5 hrs (at least from BOS-LHR, because of the tailwinds) while the Pacific flight is like 7 or 7.5 hrs. It's just a guess, though. By the way, I love the picture of the bed! One of the best ones on the internet. And, just to let you know, I've officially become an addict of this blog. :)

In response to your first question, I say that the flight from Tokyo to Singapore is longer than Boston to London.
