"not to sleep for passengers"

(Austria)

Trip Verified | Headrest is fixed and not changeable. Armrest are 2 small foldable tables. IFE Flightinfo can not save changes to metric system by each change to movie or music an return to flight info. Touchbuttons to change the seat not working (crew needs to change the seat to bed). Bed is not to sleep for passengers who sleep on sides. Hole for feet is to small for footsize 46.

"leg room was adequate"

(Singapore)

Not Verified | Boeing 787-10 leg room was adequate, it shouldn’t be a worry for medium-haul flights like this (SQ878). The screen size was good, it was difficult for you and your neighbor to see each other’s screens, giving you a decent amount of privacy. The 3-3-3 configuration makes it easy to access the aisles (with the exception of window seats) compared to most other wide body airliner. Power sockets are available to keep your devices charged. A cup holder is also present which was a nice touch as you no longer need to worry about your drink spilling over and onto your seat.

"the seat feels very narrow"

(Australia)

Trip Verified | The Boeing 787-10 legroom is fine, but the seat feels very narrow and is uncomfortable. The A350 seats which I flew earlier were much better. Not sure if I would want to fly on Singapore Airlines Boeing 787 again.

"completely disappointed"

(Australia)

Trip Verified | We flew Singapore to LAX Premium Economy and were completely disappointed. The seats had recline and footrests alright but were so narrow we were both very uncomfortable all night. Food was awful (stale buns) Eg Pasta shrimp salad had no dressing, vegetables were stewed beyond recognition . Service was brusque to the point of being rude. Icecream tub was almost thrown at me in the haste to get service done quickly . No welcome drink. Requests for water were forgotten. We have in the past had the pleasure of travelling premium economy Air NZ and there is NO comparison. Don’t know what happened to Singapore Airlines supposed excellence for service. Their Premium Economy offering was fairly price competitive (albeit our first leg from Australia was only offered in economy), however I think they make this happen by essentially providing economy level meals (No amenities pack ). The poor service is a total shock. Have they lost their mojo?

"recline was pretty good

(Indonesia)

Trip Verified | The Boeing 777-300 leg room was sufficient leads to good. The recline was pretty good. The cup holder for mine was broken so I should’ve put it on the pocket in front of my seat

"kept having to move my legs"

(Australia)

Not Verified | Booked an extra leg room seat on this flight from Singapore to Melbourne. I couldn’t sleep as my seat was in an aisle and I kept having to move my legs for the staff to go to the kitchen and for people to get to the toilet. Do not book this seat (49C) or 49A for that matter as the cabin door blocks the majority of your leg room. The plane feels super cramped and old. If you want an extra leg room seat that is actually an extra leg room seat and not in a walkway then book the A380.

"Leg room was fantastic"

(Australia)

Not Verified | This was the best flight I’ve ever taken. Leg room was fantastic as were the staff. The layout of the plane makes it feel spacious. Genuinely the easiest 13 hours I’ve ever had on a plane. The only issue I had was that my seat didn’t recline far.

"worst premium economy"

(Australia)

Trip Verified | The worst premium economy for the price. Don’t waste your money. Treated like economy passengers with same food, service and access to toilets. Seats didn’t recline very far and leg rests barely supported legs. A very uncomfortable experience. TV screen is very large but that is the only good thing.

"a very comfortable seat"

(Singapore)

Trip Verified | Singapore Airlines 2015 version of the Economy seat is a very comfortable seat. It has a touchscreen and a controller with a small touchscreen on it as well. The seat also features a comfortable legrest, an adjustable headrest, many seatback compartment pockets convenient for storing small things, as well as a cup holder. The tray table was large, practical, and even had a mirror as a nice touch. Legroom was excellent and recline was sufficient. With many airlines switching to a 3-4-3 configuration on the Boeing 777-300ER, it is good that Singapore Airlines still retains a 3-3-3 configuration.

"the most narrow seats"

(Singapore)

Torture for anybody over 185cm in height. Had my worst eco trip ever. The new Eco seats in SQ economy on their A350 are absolutely terrible. Seat pitch is on par with any low cost budget carrier. Bearable for 2hours but definetely not medium or longhaul. Absolutely no legspace and the most narrow seats I have sat in. Thats the stadard seats, the additional legroom seats against a surcharge are fine legspace wise but even more narrower as the tray folds out of the armrest and the compartment takes up space. Also end up with a weird seating position when the screen is folded under the seat as also this protrudes. Really disappointing and no idea who at SQ came up with these seat designs but seems from groundstaff and cabin crew feedback that this is a common complaint. If you have to fly Eco and are on the tall or wide side then suggest other carriers as this was definitely my last SQ Eco flight.
