Revisited in 2025: Is Singapore Airlines A380 Suites Still the World’s Best First Class?
Flying first class is a dream for many, but flying Singapore Airlines A380 First Class Suites? That’s an experience that defines luxury in the skies. In 2025, one of the most trusted airline reviewers, Dan, revisits this flagship experience on a short-haul flight from Singapore to Delhi to see if it still lives up to the hype.
At OGOFLY, we understand travelers want more than just a seat — they want a memory. So, let’s dive into this exclusive review of what many call the world’s best first-class product.
The Journey Begins at Singapore Changi Airport
Dan kicks off his journey at Singapore’s world-class Changi Airport, starting from Terminal 3. Known globally for its efficiency and style, Changi sets the tone for what’s to come. Unlike previous visits, this time Dan makes a point to experience the proper First Class check-in experience — complete with private immigration and a seamless entry into the premium zone.
From the moment you step into the dedicated first class area, it’s clear this isn’t just travel; it’s prestige.
The Private Room – More Than a Lounge
Before boarding, Dan enjoys “The Private Room,” Singapore Airlines’ ultra-premium lounge. Despite the name, it’s not a private room per se, but it absolutely feels like one.
What makes this lounge stand out?
-
Tailored Service: Staff adapt to your personal preferences instantly — Dan prefers casual yet sharp interactions, and the team nails it.
-
Memorable Dining: Fresh coconut water, truffle noodles, and Singaporean hospitality set a high bar.
-
Relaxation Spaces: First class passengers enjoy nap rooms (limited to two hours), luxurious lavatories, and an atmosphere of calm.
For many, this lounge alone is worth arriving early for.
Boarding the Iconic Singapore A380
Boarding the Airbus A380 is a spectacle in itself. Singapore Airlines operates a spacious and efficient first-class configuration on the upper deck: six Suites, two of which can be combined into a “double suite” — a rare luxury in the skies.
The layout offers:
-
Massive seat real estate
-
Swiveling seats for multiple orientations
-
Private storage closets (no overhead bins!)
-
Top-tier lavatories
-
Double-bed suite on a commercial flight
Dan notes, “This double suite is bigger than the apartment I lived in while studying abroad!”
Crew & Service: Still Unmatched
From the moment you step onboard, Singapore Airlines’ cabin crew deliver a masterclass in service. With a dedicated crew of 3–4 for just six first class passengers, the level of attention and professionalism is second to none.
Their consistency is what makes the experience so memorable. From first-timers to seasoned luxury flyers, passengers feel genuinely celebrated.
Meals & Drinks: Highs and Lows
Dining in the Suites Class is usually an unforgettable affair. Dan opted for the Western Vegetarian special meal. While the tomato soup and focaccia stood out, the rest of the meal underwhelmed — especially by Singapore Airlines’ own sky-high standards.
Still, with an extensive menu and unlimited drinks, there’s no shortage of indulgence onboard. And let’s be honest, even when the food isn’t perfect, the setting more than makes up for it.
In-Flight Amenities & Entertainment
Whether it’s a 14-hour haul to London or a 5-hour hop to Delhi, Singapore Suites doesn’t cut corners:
-
Lalique Amenity Kits
-
Pajamas (perfect for gifting or souvenirs!)
-
Plush bedding and duvets
-
Private entertainment and swivel screens
Dan filmed his entire experience using the Insta360 X5 — highlighting the immense space with cinematic shots, thanks to 8K 360° recording and an invisible selfie stick.
Booking Tips: How Dan Snagged the Cheapest Suites Route
This isn’t just a review — it’s also a masterclass in points strategy. Dan booked one of the most affordable Singapore Suites routes: Singapore to Delhi. With the right timing and a bit of luck, award space becomes available even on these coveted products.
Quick insights:
-
No elite status required to book
-
Delhi and Mumbai routes often offer the best availability
-
Paid fares start around $3,300 — but points redemptions can save you big
Dan is also adding a new section to his points masterclass focused solely on Singapore Suites redemptions.
Final Verdict: Is It Still the Best in 2025?
✅ Seats: Best in the sky
✅ Service: Unmatched
✅ Amenities: Elite-tier
❌ Catering: Room for improvement
Even with a lackluster meal, Dan declares that Singapore Airlines A380 Suites still hold the crown for the world’s best first-class experience. From the iconic welcome to the luxurious bedding and standout service, there’s nothing quite like it.
