Business Class On A380 Singapore Airlines, SQ336 From Singapore To Paris – Airlines

My second trip to Paris, France was on Business Class on A380 Singapore Airlines, Flight SQ336. My January Business trip to France was also on SQ336 Business Class, however it was a 777-300ER plane instead. Though both are business class products of Singapore Airlines, there are slight difference to the design and ergonomics of the seats.

I got the Seat 94K located at the rear section. Even though I am not sure which is the best seat, I see that in some review indicating that Seat 11A and 11K, though is a bulkhead, they are without a window.

 

 

Seats

 

My seat 94K.

The pitch isn’t as deep as the seats I got on 777-300ER, but it is good for passengers who are short like myself.

And the remote is hidden in the arm rest. Lift it and you find it.

 

The seats could not turn into a flat bed with a click of the button, you need to flip the seat-back down instead. The ergonomic of the sleep position is slated towards an angle which I wasn’t bothered though some reviewers do dislike it. However, what I could not agree was the angle for the leg section, it was declined towards the floor at about 10° which makes sleeping rather uncomfortable. 

 

 

Entertainment

 

An array of entertainment with up-to-date movies, music are available. 

 

 

Washroom & Amenities

 

I noticed that the design of the washroom and the amenities differ from the toilets. The one at the rear are smaller than the one at the middle section. And likewise the amount of amenities are lesser too.

Marinated Crab Meat Salad was the best among all the courses. 

 

Business Class On A380 Singapore Airlines, SQ336 From Singapore To Paris - Baked King Prawn

 

Baked King Prawn though wasn’t over-cooked. I didn’t enjoyed the tomato-based sauce. Personally, I thought there could be better option for the sauce.

 

As for the Nanyang Coffee Mousse with Chocolate Cake and selection of Cheese photo, I have accidentally deleted it without downloading from my camera. OMG!! In short, I love the cheese but I can’t say the same for the cake.
