Mushrif A 3 Report post Posted March 8, 2017 I'm sold. But still hard to figure out how big is the space. For instance, SQ tends to use very skinny and petite people in the adverts on its premium seats, giving impression of more space than there is in reality.

jani 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) It's awesome but I'm not a fan of Business replacing First, and Premium Economy replacing Business Which ultimately means a downgrade for everybody. Edited March 9, 2017 by jani Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaymondT 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2017 This is actually a smart idea for passengers travelling as a group. I'd tap that for family travels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JuliusWong 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2017 Amazing! QR did an outstanding job in marketing and publicizing the new Business Class Suite. Literally upped the ante by several notches for SQ, CX and other older legacy carriers. QR basically took SQ's A Class Beyond First concept and make the seats as quad and put them in Business Class. Business Class and First Class line is now further blurred. It is no wonder why Etihad Airways rolled out something much more high-end: the First Apartment and The Residence on their A380. Now the ball is in SQ court to "revolutionise" again. Side note, the new QR Business Class Suite makes EK's so-called new Business Class looks very 'poor' and tacky. Wood and gold is so yesterday, not that I can afford any. Lolx. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Tan 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2017 This is actually a smart idea for passengers travelling as a group. I'd tap that for family travels. It might make sense for families of 4, but I still think it's a tad gimmicky. The partition can be retracted but the screens might still be in the way. Not quite face-to-face like a proper F suite. At least, that's what the pics seem to suggest. And if a family of 3 decides to take advantage of this, then the stranger will be in a very awkward situation. Then again I've yet to try it out.

Wood and gold is so yesterday, not that I can afford any. Lolx. SQ overplayed the "Class Beyond the First" concept for their Suites when it was launched in 2007. In the beginning it really was a class of its own, with a price tag to match. But they soon realized it wasn't sustainable. They couldn't get rid of it entirely, so they just toned down on the marketing. For all intents and purposes, it's now "only" First Class (regular A, F fare buckets, same perks, same redemption levels etc). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
