SIA is still recruiting cabin crew from SG and MY. The website is at https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/us/careers/cabin-crew-career/
I think the airline is still short of local cabin crew. It is currently not employing crew from other countries. However, I don't understand why only SG and MY only?
Poor Lambert Yeo. He worked so hard for the company and when asked for early retirement SIA refused to give him. SIA had given early retirement to crew who had been lazy and mischievous but not Lambert. SIA even turned down his request for FOC tickets. Now Lambert is gone...*sobs*
Dear Sir,
I just came across a very heartwarming TikTok post featuring a Singapore Airlines crew member named Aiden, who helped Paige Parker (Jim Rogers' wife) remove stains from her jeans.
The video was posted by Paige Parker herself (Paige Parker) yesterday. As a Singaporean, I have always enjoyed watching her TikTok videos. Besides showcasing her luxurious lifestyle, she recently posted something that warmed my heart just before National Day. It was inspiring to see how Singapore Airlines' crew go the extra mile to help their passengers, demonstrating a strong Singaporean spirit in their service.
This is truly something we are very proud of, as SQ is our national carrier, and people like Aiden truly fly the Singapore Airlines flag above and beyond.
In addition, Cheryl Teh, a follower of Paige Parker, commented that she remembered Aiden delivering excellent service and wrote him a compliment letter after a flight to India.
This man is truly amazing and deserves recognition.
Yours Sincerely,

Last weekend we drove to Hiroshima for a short weekend trip. Stayed at the Grand Prince Hiroshima which was quite good and cheap. We booked through Trip.com which gave the cheapest rate. It was a twin room rather big for S$70 a night. Originally we wanted to book through other sites whose rates were almost double.
The last time I nightstopped in Hiroshima was 30+ years ago but I can't remember which hotel did SIA put its crew in. Perhaps it was Regal Royal. Anyone knows??
The drive took us almost 4 hours as we had a few stops in between to have drinks food etc. The distance from home to Hiroshima was about 300km.
It was a difficult time during the 1960s when the company was controlled and run by the "Whites".

Ceo is paid S$8.1 million for year 2023/2024 which is an increase of 20% over the previous year. That is a lot of money even after tax. No wonder the EVPs were fighting over the post. But eventually the relatively young Goh Choon Phong got the top job in 2011!
There was a stewardess whose father engaged a lawyer to fight her case when they caught her for shoplifting in Tokyo. The next thing we knew was that she was found guilty and fined! She is now out of job....silly isn't it? Should have negotiated with the store owner and paid them than fight it out in court.
I was told that if you are caught or mistakenly caught shoplifting in Japan don't argue or try to engage a lawyer to fight for you. Simply apologize and pay up for the amount of goods plus a penalty of about 10 times (negotiable)of the value of the stolen goods to the shop and you should get away with it.
US$25k for seriously injured paxs, US$10k for less serious and S$1k for all paxs not injured. I believe not all will accept the compensation and will sue SIA for more.
I remember the children of a couple who died in the SQ006 crash refused the compensation and sued SIA . They were awarded US$15 million. Will the deceased pax (only one who died) family take SIA to court?

Yesterday Qatar Airways flight QR 017 was hit by a severe turbulence when flying between Doha and Dublin. Six paxs and six cabin crew were injured.
Air turbulence is on the increase due to climate change so I was told. Flying as a crew is no longer fun as one may get seriously hurt due to the ever increasing turbulence. What are your thoughts on this?

One person was dead and several others injured after a Singapore Airlines flight encountered "severe" turbulence, the airline said in a social media post.
The Boeing 777-300ER departed London's Heathrow Airport on Monday with 221 passengers and 18 crew members on board, according the airline.
