So I'm looking to fly LHR-SIN in sept and a few options popped up in C. Should I go with the A380 C or the (I believe new) 77W C?
I never flew on a 380 yet..

If you can you might as well try out the new C. But if you were to spend on First/Suites then I think you should try Suites on the A380 before thinking about the new F, however good it might be...

That's against four trips with SWU or SWV on SQ 306. I shouldn't think odds will change much in the next week...................
Thanks. Is there any way to check before-hand if SQ308 (09:15 take-off) will have the new C/F on Feb 4 which is just a couple of days away?

AFAIK, the only airline anywhere that shows specific frame assignments up to 72 hours in advance is United Airlines.

Now, in this specific SQ case, it's interesting that SQ308 has been performed by A380s the last two Tuesdays (21 and 28 January).

And 4 February is a Tuesday....................
