in service, comfort, and food

Marco Polo Diamond benefits: [URL]http://www.cathaypacific.com/cx/en_US/frequent-flyers/about-the-club/club-benefits.html[/URL]

PPS Solitaire benefits [URL]https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/us/ppsclub-krisflyer/ppsclub/solitaire-ppsclub/[/URL]

The earning methods for either are pretty different. CX MP Diamond uses tier points whereas SQ PPS Solitaire has a spending requirement, both to get into the club and to maintain membership. CX’s program will be easier. Furthermore OW Emerald allows you First Class lounge access around the world when flying on a oneworld carrier, even if it’s your arriving flight. Star Gold members can only access lounges if your departing carrier is a Star Alliance airline.

CX only has First on their 77Ws but not all their 77Ws has first class. However, I believe they always have full meal services for the flight, regardless of departure time.The seats are very big and I believe CX is the only airline to offer 1-1-1 seating on a 77W in first class.

SQ only has Suites on their A380s. Meal services are reduced to supper service for late night flights but they do have a Book the Cook progam. Seat is also very big, with doors.
