There is no direct flight from Singapore to Vancouver. I was searching online for the fare and I came across a good promotion by Philippine Airline. One way from Singapore to Vancouver business class ticket only costs only $1900+. I knew i had to book it straight away! But, I became to worry the moment once II paid for the tickets. Nothing comes cheap right?
After doing a Google search, I din't feel better. The reviews we read online are mainly negative comments about the old Cabin and inadequately updated entertainment system. We can't seem to find any legit photos online to convince ourselves that their business class is of certain standard. And so we wait for the DEPARTURE DAY!!!!!!!!!!! SURPRISES DO COME AFTER SUSPENSE!!!!!!!!!
The Premier Lounge we checked into before we board the plane was good! There were some fair food, drinks and massage pods for us!
My shoe wearing Sun-glass...more glam then me...lolz
Our first stopover: Singapore to Manila
The seat, Nick saw the seat and he was really disappointed...hahaha. He was soooo worried that this is the exact same flight from Manila to Vancouver and we were beginning to regret in settling for "cheap stuffs" without doing much research...boo hooo
It is more like Economy Plus seat.
Trying to show the legroom of the seat.
The Welcome drink - Mango Smoothie. This is really really good!
The meal menu from Singapore to Manila
The in-flight entertainment system, as commented online had very limited choices of movies. And I have to make do with it, only blaming myself for leaving my Ipad at home......
Manila Airport Lounge.... We transited here for 5 hours and I am soooooo glad we took business class. Because........Manila Airport has NOTHING!!!!
BUSINESS CLASS came to us!!!!!!! This is what we paid for!!!!
Welcome drink and snacks..
Our menu for dinner and breakfast but my hp ran out of battery before I can take the breakfast meal pics...Boo Hoo :(
Our dinner..
Conclusion of my flight experience:
Pros:
Food: the food was great.
Seat: The seat was good, very spacious leg room for the flight from Manila to Vancouver.
Pilot: I feel that the pilot skill is good to as the landing is very smooth. Also, I don't have terrible ear pain due to the air pressure of very fast descending. Some airlines like to do that.
Service: The air crew service is great, truly representing that Filipino is superb in service.
Cons:
Very Very Very limited in flight entertainment, that is shocked me.
Had to transit in Manila Airport...It's a pain to transit there
The plane from Singapore to Manila is really old.
All said..I would love to travel with PAL again if there is good deal on the business class ticket.
Next up my journey in Vancouver!
