The Best First Class Suites
Get the full royal treatment with three of the world’s best first-class experiences, where nothing is too much to ask for.
Singapore Airlines Suites
Singapore Airlines raised the bar once again when it launched its new A380 Suites. Practically mini hotel rooms, the SIA suites on the flagship Airbus A380 double-deckers come with a swivelling chair upholstered in full grain leather by Poltrona Frau, a massive 32-inch touchscreen monitor, as well as a separate full‑sized bed.
Travelling with a loved one? Not a problem. On the A380, the centre divider between two adjacent suites can be lifted, forming a luxurious double bed.
If you are departing from Singapore, the pampering experience begins as soon as you arrive at Changi Airport, where a porter will escort you from check-in all the way to the SIA Private Room—a lounge accessible only to first class passengers rather than status cardholders.
From there, and possibly throughout your journey, it will be a tough call between the 2004 Krug or the 2006 Dom Pérignon to pair with the airline’s exceptional in-flight menus. Better yet, take advantage of the Book the Chef programme, where you can choose a main course crafted by the airline’s acclaimed culinary panel consisting of top chefs from around the world.
