Final flight of this 6-part epic. I have a 3 hour layover in Tokyo before departing back to my hot and humid country.

A picture of the boarding pass issued in Boise.
Passing by empty Duty Free shops.
More walking as the group transferring from the flight are led by ground staff to the Transfer Desk.
At the transfer desk, the staff made sure everyone had the appropriate paperwork and documentation for the next legs of the flights. Being a Singaporean citizen, all I needed was to produce my receipt for the arrival swab tests.
I was also issued a new boarding pass for the flight.
The FIDS were as expected. Barely any flights or just straight up cancelled.
My plane being loaded in the late afternoon sun.
Another look at my previous plane! Being loaded and restocked for the return flight shortly.
I didn't do much walking because I was already pretty tired from the previous flights. The setting sun cast a beautiful pink hue over the airport.
Boarding was announced punctually and the few passengers heading to Singapore started to board.
Down the aerobridge.
And into the plane.
Passed by NH's business cabin.
Took my seat at 37K. Legroom, decent.
Up close of the IFE for this flight.
A familiar IFE remote. Seems like airlines have been using this since forever.
Not a full flight.
The seatback contents have been reduced to just the flight safety card, airsickness bag and a pair of headphones.
I do appreciate that ANA label their seats on the armrests.
Taking a look at the flight preview for tonight.
7 hours to Singapore. Will be arriving Saturday morning.
Took off promptly and once we hit cruising, the cabin crew began handing out snacks and drinks.
Followed soon after by the meal. The cabin crew had a laminated card showing the two options and you just had to point at whichever you wanted. I opted for Japanese curry again. The meal was served with a roasted chicken salad, garden salad, some edamame and a futomaki. Beverages were also available for request.
Mid-way though my meal, the crew handed out a portion of hot cream of corn soup.
Cabin lights were dimmed once the trays were collected.
Took a rest and woke up with 2 hours to arrival.
Obligatory toilet visit. Clean toilet with the signature Japanese bidet.
Flying over the Philippines.
Spent the rest of the journey watching random shows till final approach.
Cabin lights are lit after landing and as we taxi to the gate.
Disembarking. Thank you ANA for the pleasant flight.
The familiar heat and humidity of the air.
Changi with almost no-one except staff fully dressed in PPE.
Made my way towards immigration and bag collection.
Will be collecting from Belt 16 tonight.
There aren't many bags so it's easy to spot my items on the carousel.
A great way to end my trip. ANA delivered a wonderful product on this flight. Asian carriers still hold the edge in terms of product compared to the US carriers. Thank you everyone for reading my reports and I hope to deliver more once the pandemic ends.

Thanks for sharing this report.
Thank you for reading my report! The quarantine hotel was allocated by the government. Basically we were just ushered to the bus. I didn't even know where I was headed until I saw where the bus was heading to.

A very good flight on ANA with a very good japanese catering.
Interesting fact about the seats labels on armrests. I never paid attention.
As for Singapore's quarantine measures, ewww... I hope the pandemic ends soon as well in Asia.
Have safe flights. ;)
Thank you for reading my report! I hope you enjoyed it. \
It's a small detail but a great way to help older folks who can't look up find their seats.
Looking on the bright side, I just treated it like a two-week company sponsored staycation. I do believe these measures are needed to slow the spread of the virus, especially in Singapore with our aging population.
ANA service seems mostly the same as pre-pandemic, minus showing menu choices on cards and mask wearing, etc. The meal looks very tasty, for an intra-Asia route.
Ever-changing quarantine and vaccination requirements along with border closures have made international travel during the pandemic very challenging. Thanks for giving us some insight into the Hotel quarantine. It's nice to see that Singapore is finally opening up to some countries with the Vaccinated Travel Lane programme. It seems it was successful enough with Germany and Brunei that it was expanded to 9 more countries--hopefully this continues as we learn that Intl travel can be safe when vaccinated.
Thanks for sharing!
