Love the A380? lots of seats available to fly (with points) in the world's best first class next summer
The world's best first class flies in a few places
Singapore Airlines
Star Alliance
SIN
In recent days a reader wrote to me. After reading my review of the Suite of first class aboard Singapore Airlines' A380. Wondering on what routes the super jumbo was "certain" to be on. to try the unique experience this cabin offers in the world.
Because this is the best first class in the world
In this article:
Contrary to what you might think the best first-class cabin in the world is not Emirates or Etihad's, the crown is deservedly on the head of theSingapore Airlines' A380 which also took home the title of best airline and best airport at the latest Skytrax Awards.
Of course the bathroom doesn't have a shower, but for everything else it is no match for what other companies offer. On the contrary.
If when you get on board there is a super chair waiting for the passenger.

When bedtime comes, a real bed pops up, not an armchair that becomes a bed.

And if you are traveling as a couple, things get even more interesting with a real double bed
Where this cabin flies
In Europe, Singapore's A380 is only seen at London Heathrow. Twice a day it lands at the Old Continent's main airport to depart in the opposite direction a few hours later. To welcome and pamper its most exclusive passengers SQ also has a dedicated lounge, separate from business class which is also open to those with status.
At the moment beyond the capital of England the most beautiful plane in the world flies to:
- Auckland
- Bombay
- Delhi
- Hong Kong
- Sydney
- Tokio
For the 2024 summer season, that is, starting from the end of March Airbus' double decker will be used to fly back to Frankfurt, But not on the onward flight to New York:
- Delhi
- Bombay
- Frankfurt
- Hong Kong
- London
- Shanghai
- Sydney
How to book a ticket using points
I was able to peel off this ticket for only 86k KF points, a real juggling heist to fly from Frankfurt to New York. Today it is possible to spend even less, but one has to settle for short routes such as the flight to Hong Kong, but even the flights to India take just over 3 hours, too short to appreciate this environment.
Untraceable in saver fare at 141K points to fly from Frankfurt to Singapore, but also at full fare from 225,500 points you still have to gamble with the waiting list.
Definitely easier to find a place to fly from Singapore to Sydney, it costs significantly less and with two daily flights operated by A380s you are spoiled for choice.
In conclusion
If you have a dream of flying in the suite of Singapore's A380. you have to be willing to part with a fair amount of points (but if you are rich you can always pay cash) It doesn't fly to many places so you have to choose your itinerary well based on where you fly.
