after lunch we pass thru the e security gate and cleared security and immigration which took about 10 minutes thanks to the smart departure clearance and Electronic security gate with facial recognition and made my way to gate 6 to board my flight home
upon reaching gate 6 i found my ride home its a 10 years old 1 month B777 300 ER 9v nine victor sww (sierra whiskey whiskey) it was just arrived from singapore as SQ892 and making a turnaround back to singapore as SQ893

behind of B777 300ER was another singapore airlines a350 900 regional configuration 9V SHO operating as SQ 883 heading back to singapore as well but departed earlier than our B777 300 ER



Boarding begin around 2.45 pm and was well organised starting from first class to zone 5 economy class and it uses a facial recognition system and picked up earphones at the jetbridge and walk past business class seats,premium economy seats and the foward section of the economy seats


Inflight entertainment system (Krissworld)
The inflight entertainment system also known as krissworld has great sellection of TV ,music and movies and the inflight map is interactive can zoom in and out even my favourite inflight map is the voyager 3d map


Hot towels were given shortly and then i decided to watch my first movie tenage mutant ninja turtles TMNT 2007


Pushback was ontime and the safety video Began played with mandrian chinnese subtitles and the loud engine start of the GE 90 engines before taxing to runway 7R

Shortly after the safety video was played also found the advertisment of the skytrax awards 2023 as singapore airlines is the best airline in the year 2023 followed by the video on how to connect to the krissworld wifi before Resuming the TMNT 2007 movie while it taxi to runway 7R for takeoff

Shortly after takeoff seatbelts sign were switch off there free wifi onboard most of the singapore airlines flight even for krissflyer member however i did face difficulties connecting to the wifi onboard

dinner service
Dinner service was serve shortly after takeoff and the choice are roasted chicken thigh with thyme sauce and mashed potato or braised pork and pumpkin with sweet femented sauce and rice. The menu can be avaliable on the digital content portal or before your flight on the singapore airlines website

As the meal trolley reach my row they ran out of the chicken thigh with thyme sauce option and given the braised pork and pumpkin with sweet femented sauce and rice instead .The rice and the pork were delicious as well as the thai style shrimp salad and the usual bread and butter


Did watch another movie Trolls band together 2023 during the meal service and shortly served Haagen-dazs vanilla ice cream for dessert and were flying over vietnam when checking the inflight map


Few hours has passed and the flight comes to an end with a landing music when decending into changi airport runway 2L and a short taxi to Gate B5 of Changi airport terminal 3
disembarking
we disembark the b777 300er at gate B5 of terminal 3 which is a short walk away to arrival Hall and immigration was quick at the Eiacs e gates when completing the SGAC singapore arrival card with health Decleration no more than 3 days prior to my trip home it can be done via the ica website or the ica app. After immigration it took quite a while to pick up my suitcase before heading home via ride share (grab) and it was slightly overpriced than normal taxi with usual airport surcharges and waited 20 mintues for a ride home overall it was the best ride on the B777 300 ER for a 3 hour ride back to singapore and fantastic cabin crew.

Thanks for reading along and see you next time on phee planes bye for now
