Well done Tom
As always, another great and informative trip report and I myself look forward to getting on an A350 at some stage. Keep up the great work!
The a350 is a nice aircraft indeed, just a shame about my size and the seat layout!
Was it a regional configuration or the long haul?
It was the regional configuration (no premium economy)
It’d be interesting to compare to the long-haul config. I’m surprised SQ would be tight on the leg room. Like you, I’m tall at 188cm so I could be a bit pressed for space.
Yo im doing this route on Wednesday looks like it'll be fun!
I enjoyed the SQ a350 (MH) from SIn-CAN. The entertainment system was good - the in flight map had innovative features including tail rego, nearest cities information (population of city, elevation and weather conditions). Even that you can use the touch screen and seek other cities from around the world on the map. And cna see the population
You really deserve more subscribers, very good report, hello from Brisbane 🙈
Thanks for watching and the endorsement!
Its good,
Really awesome!
Thank you for watching and the comment!
Thanks for this review. I plan to take this flight next year. Interested to see the new A350-900 cabin.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
Quality stuff mate. Keep it up.!
Singapore actually has one of the best Economy Class seats with a consistent 32 inches of pitch and well designed features. If you would like to see "tight", look at Finnair's standard seats with only 31 inches max of pitch. Service is generally good and one of the more consistent and no flight with them is bad. I flown them 4 times in the last months and while service on some flights were better than others, they were all great. The food and IFE are not as good as Emirates though. Nice video though :)
Thanks for watching, and good to hear your experience as well!
It's surprising that you found Finnair's A350 economy tight. I felt that the legroom was more than adequate. If you really want to experience some of the worst economy seats anywhere then it has to be Cathay's 10 abreast 777. Not only does it have even less legroom being a 10 abreast 777 means very narrow, sub 17 inch seats, rock hard seats with little padding, and very little recline. Avoid that at all costs.
Thomas flew the A350-900 ‘medium haul economy cabin’ (as I like to call it, because these planes do not seem to be used on long flights to Europe). It is the latest economy cabin. It is well documented on the internet that those A350’s come with a slightly reduced seat pitch. The A350’s used for flights to Europe have the true 32” pitch. These planes have the 2013 economy class seats. However all A350’s on Singapore Airlines have narrower 18” seat width compared to the more comfortable 19” on their 777’s and A380’s.
👍
Another great vlog. Next time you should fly Qantas Economy and compare. Really enjoy your vlogs, great detail and great airport footage too!
Thanks for the great feedback! My next flight to Singapore will be in Qantas Economy, but on board the a380! It's a day flight too, so will try and make some comparisons
Just flew from Brisbane to Melbourne today was amazing
WHY JUST WHY did you fly on an a350-900 or Singapore Airlines? I’m confused? Haha. Brisbane to Melbourne would be Qantas, Virgin Australia, Jetstar and Tigerair 🤔
Tom Mackay yeah I was just saying that I flew I didn’t mean I flew Singapore airlines ahah I flew with qantas on there Boeing 787 in there business class product hahaha sorry I confused u I probably should have said that it was just a domestic flight but I am flying Singapore airlines later this year Sydney to Singapore
do you know which row is nearest to the engine/ fan?
What seat did you use because I am going from Brisbane to Singapore so I want to know what seat I should choose
The legroom looks small but its not bad compared to other airlines.
will be seating in an A350 too soon with Singapore Airlines. Thanks for the review!
going on this same route in 4 days
Safe travels! Enjoy your flight!
Great review! And I agree with the comment below mine 😜
😂😂
great video, legs 😋 how tall are you ?
Great review.. thank you.. who knew when you filmed this what was to come and Qantas sadly scrapping those beautiful 747 aircraft
So sad!
You have a cute smile. Annnnd subscribed!
Good video. Planning to take Singapore Airlines next year, my first time for this airline. Hope I can get the last row of either economy cabin. I'm a short and small guy so legroom will be OK for me for an over 20hours flight with 2 stopovers not counting the very long layovers. The main reason why I don't take this airline. But for you legroom will be very uncomfortable for you especially on a very long flight. Take the aisle seat as I usually do now especially the center seats. That way it's easier for you to stretch and go to the WC.
Thanks for watching! Enjoy your trip with Singapore Airlines!
Great trip report. With row 54 being against a bulkhead did you notice if this particular row has limited recline compared to any other row? I've pre selected 54K for my upcoming SIN-BNE redeye.
54K has the same recline (possibly more) than the regular economy seats. Despite being at the bull head, there is still room behind the seat back when fully reclined. If you want a good seat for the way home, try 70B. I just did it last night on the way home SIN-BNE
@@ThomasMackay I cannot find 70B??? seating stops at 60
@@rickmorgan1441 It may be due to the configuration of your aircraft - some SQ A350s are configure with Premium Economy so may not have row 70. Regardless, on my flight, 70B was the very last row of economy with only 2 seats instead of 3. Good luck!
@@ThomasMackay cheers, I will try to find that seat...got a 12.25 hr flight so every break counts
Those timber chairs look nice, are they outdoor?
Thanks for watching! They are inside actually, but very close to floor to ceiling windows overlooking the apron!
I've flown on this aircraft and I can't agree more with you that the seats are really tight cramped! Idk what they did but the A350 is supposed to have a reasonally comfortable cabin right???
Yeah that’s what I thought Kevin! I felt so cramped 😫
Well they got 32 inches of legroom in eco. Other airlines have 30 inches so feel lucky.
@@appletree4433 Oh wooww really?!?! It's a real shame for Singapore Air
If you think the A350 is cramped try flying this product on the B787-10, the legroom is the same but the seat is 1 inch narrower, I was lucky the middle seat next to me was empty but if it was a full flight and you got stuck in the middle or on the window it would be very claustrophobic
Is that the economy lite? Im also booking Singapore airlines from Brisbane to Singapore but can:t decide yet between economy lite and economy standard.
My flights were packaged by the travel agent, but they were on the most restrictive fare class for economy - but I didn’t receive the full baggage allowance.
Enjoy your trip!
Great trip report. I’m a bit concerned about the leg room after your video as I’m flying with SIA in 4 weeks time.
May I ask you how tall you are?
I guess legroom always depends on the individual size.
Cheers and keep up the good work.
Hey Kevin - thanks for watching and for the support! I am 191cm/6'3" and it was definitely a tight squeeze for me! All the best for your upcoming flight!
Thanks for your quick reply and your wishes Tom. I’m 183cm (6‘). Will be interesting to see. I look forward to seeing more of your reviews. I appreciate reviews with voice overs.
The leg room is a very subjective issue depending on how tall you are. If every airlines cater spacious legroom for all tall big built passenger in Economy class, the airline will go bankrupt faster. Consider Singapore Airlines Business Class next time.
@@Dragflyer9669 strongly agreed. If you knew that you are on the bigger side, opt for at least Premium Economic or Emergency Exit seat.
how tall are you? how's the leg space for 6 feet tall passenger?
Hi! I am 191cm or around 6'3". To be honest, it was pretty tight fitting for me - would definitely recommend exit row if tall!
How tall are you? It looked really tight without much of a legroom for you. I am 178cm and this can be a concern for me too. Thanks for sharing!
Hi, thanks for watching! I am 192cm tall, and there wasn’t a lot of space!
Tom Mackay oh Ur pretty tall
I’m 175cm tall. No problem for me in one of my videos (SIA 350 Medium Haul Aircraft)
Could you lift the arm rest up so if no one was next to you in economy, you could you lift it up and have more room?
Marius Draconis yes you can, but there is some restriction on how far it can be extended up. If the seat is reclined, the extended arm rest doesn’t not move with the seat
Welcome to Phuket 😁
Of course its underwhelming after flying business class.
Yep, it's hard to go back :(
Hi Thomas. :-) nice review :) I assume your a tall guy? That’s why maybe you don’t have enough legroom :)
Haha
Hey mate..how tall are you?
Tim Curtis I am 191cm!
tight seat, trap like chicken
Nice vlog but you should be comparing this to other Economy Class experiences rather than show disappointment because it’s not as good as business class etc. Yes you have been spoilt and are lucky to be able to fly higher classes.
Better off without the background music,but otherwise quite good.
If you are the biggest side or tall person. Please consider to book a Emergency Exit Seat or upgrade yourself at least to a Premium Economic.
Thanks for the hot tip! 🔥
Theres no premium economy on the a350s that do bne-sin unfortunately
You are so cute LOL
Hmmmm 9 across not cool. Legroom..... ouch
Mmm ouch indeed. Could be worse - 9across on a 787! Thanks for watching !
10 across on Jetstar 787. XD
