Hope you enjoyed the report. Thanks for reading.
End of trip.

Scoot was the airline of choice for this trip as the fare was quite cheap. Inflight entertainment was non-existent being a Low cost carrier.
Crew were friendly and provided adequate service.
Singapore was efficient and pleasant transit point. Sydney airport wasn't busy due to non-peak arrival.
Overall a satisfactory flight.
