We Flew 15+ Airlines — Here’s Why Singapore Airlines Still Stands Out

There’s a reason why, whenever travel plans come up, one name keeps getting mentioned.

Ask colleagues. Ask friends. Ask travel agents.Chances are, they’ll say Singapore Airlines — without hesitation.

After flying with more than 15 airlines, we still find ourselves choosing Singapore Airlines again and again. Not because it’s flashy. Not because it’s cheap. But because it feels right.

Singapore Airlines inflight experience showing service, comfort, and cabin atmosphere

1.Comfortable seats are a given these days. Many major airlines use similar aircraft and seat layouts anyway.

So what really makes the difference? Service.
After years of flying with Singapore Airlines — from short trips to the Philippines to long-haul flights across Europe — their hospitality stands out every single time. The crew are consistently warm, attentive, and genuinely empathetic. You don’t feel like a seat number; you feel like a guest.

     Experience: After a rough European regional flight, I boarded the Singapore Airlines leg already feeling nauseous. I asked a cabin crew member for some water. She returned with a bottled water usually reserved for Business Class — no questions, no hesitation.
It was a small gesture, but it meant everything in that moment.

2. Yes, They Give You Cake (And We Got It Twice!)
Here’s a fun fact many people don’t know:
Singapore Airlines is one of the pioneers of celebratory cake giveaways for passengers flying on their birthday or anniversary.

And yes — we’ve experienced it twice. 🎉
- Once on our 14th wedding anniversary
- And again on Abbey’s 42nd birthday
Both moments were unforgettable and made the flights extra special. These are the kinds of touches that turn flights into memories.

3. Now that we can stream blockbuster movies anytime, Singapore Airlines still finds ways to keep long-haul flights enjoyable.
Aside from movies and shows, you might stumble upon:
- Classic games like Othello
- Relaxing meditation and wellness music that lullabies
Sometimes, it’s nice to disconnect from screens and enjoy something a little old-school.

4. Airline food can be hit or miss. With Singapore Airlines, it’s something we actually look forward to.
You can:
- View the menu days before your flight
- Pre-select meals with Book the Cook (business class) 

     Experience: Once, in Business Class, I barely touched my meal. A crew member noticed immediately and asked why. When I mentioned it was too salty, they offered me another dish — making sure I wasn’t hungry on an almost four-hour flight.
That kind of attentiveness is rare.

Why People Keep Choosing Singapore Airlines? It’s not just about reliability. 

It’s about how the airline makes you feel.
Calm. Cared for. Comfortable. Remembered.

That’s why Singapore Airlines consistently tops the list for so many travellers — especially those who’ve flown with them more than once.
Is Singapore Airlines one of your favourite airlines too?

Dizzy on the Plane? My Experience and How I Manage Flight Dizziness

Waking up dizzy in the middle of a flight can be scary, especially when the dizziness lasts for days after landing. I’ve experienced this more than once, and it made me realize how common flight dizziness and travel anxiety can be. In this post, I share my personal experience, possible reasons why dizziness happens on planes, and simple ways I manage it before, during, and after flying.

Since I know I’m not the only one who feels this way, I want to share what I learned, plus some practical tips to lessen the dizziness (and even the anxiety) that comes with it.

Here are some common reasons:
   •Cabin Pressure Changes – Our inner ear is sensitive to shifts in air pressure, and that affects balance.

   •Dry Cabin Air – Flights are dehydrating, and dehydration = lightheadedness. 

   •Long Hours of Sitting – Poor circulation can make you feel faint when you wake up.

   •Motion Sensitivity – Turbulence and vibration mess with your equilibrium.

   •Jet Lag + Lack of Sleep – Our body becomes extra sensitive when tired.

Knowing these triggers helps us prepare better. 

Dizzy on the Plane? My Experience and How I Manage Flight Dizziness

Here are some things I now do before, during, and after the flight.

Before the Flight:
✅ Drink more water than usual. Hydrate.
✅ Pick a seat near the wings (less movement).
✅ Pack small “comfort helpers” earplugs, or saline spray.

During the Flight
✅ Move or stretch every 2–3 hours.
✅ Eat light—avoid greasy, heavy meals that can worsen nausea.
✅ Practice slow breathing or listen to calming music when anxiety creeps in.
✅ Use a neck pillow so my head doesn’t flop when I suddenly wake up.

Traveling is already stressful enough—let’s not allow dizziness and anxiety to steal the joy of the journey. ✈️
