Isn't this makes sense?

 By a reader:

"All food in SQ are precooked,and microwaveable no real kitchen on board.Want good atas food go fresh food outlet on ground.Air pressurisation ,ambience on board not for fine dinning style ,the tastebud,stomach reacts negatively,all food taste bad no matter what is being served.Stop whining and get real,or fly your own or slow boat.Immediately after landing,when depressuries,the stomach change to hunger mode.You cant't afford it,your own feels,on your budget"

My comments on SIA food

 I don't want to sound as though I am pro-SIA but the reality is the food on board has reduced in quantity. However, I recently flew on a Japan flight and found that although the quantity has been reduced but the quality has not been compromised. As a matter of fact, the food these days taste better than in the past. I don't want to say more lest I will be accused of being biased. Instead, I would like to hear from our readers.

Is SIA food that bad?

 


  • A social media user recently posted a photo of a Singapore Airlines meal and questioned if standards of the national carrier were dropping
  • The passenger claimed that a packet of plain crackers was given in place of dessert and fresh fruits, for instance
  • Other online users echoed similar sentiments, with some saying that they felt portion sizes were smaller and the quality of meals have worsened
  • The airline said that regular audits are made with catering partners to ensure quality of meals served in-flight
  • It added that it will take into account customers' feedback

The naysayers and those with adverse comments are:
1. Internet Trolls
2. Condemned ex-screw (could not get promoted, so very sore about it - l can see only same old 2 candidates in BT blog, with their signature comments.
3. Lastly, 1 with a grievance to grind and using BT blog to do 👌😘😎

Hi Boh Tong

Reason being you had this poll because youre insecure and anxious about what people like me says about you for past sleepless nights of yours.

If youre so confident about your CC credentials like the 10 people who voted 'no shame' why you didnt get a post-CC job?

Where is the so called world class training applied post-CC to find job? 😰

The world needs more ......

 Jane was a cabin crew wannabe. She was trying hard to be a stewardess with SIA. One day she contacted me and bought an e-guide from me. Out of curiosity, I asked Jane why did she buy the guide (of course I know the reason). Her reply surprised me. She said she bought the guide because she pitied me as I am an old man who is struggling to make a living by helping people get into SIA. 
At this point, I instead took pity on her. I appreciated what she did and so I gave her free coaching over Zoom on how to pass the cabin crew interview for free (UP is $200). We need more of people like Jane. She should make an excellent stewardess.

Types of people who visit this blog

 Over the years I've noticed that there are 3 types of people who visit this blog. The first is to read the stories I publish and share their views but most don't, second is the cabin crew wannabes who are looking for tips on how to pass the cc interview and finally the third who are here to critize whatever I post.

Not to worry I appreciate and welcome all catergories of visitors. Keep reading and commenting. Thank you very much!

Isn't being a cabin crew better?

Many said that flying as a cabin crew has no future. But I know of a case of 2 ex classmates whom I will compare here, how they fared after finishing school. Lets name them as A and B. Both are now 50 years old.
After finishing "A" level A became a steward with SIA while B furthered his studies in Australia. Upon graduation, B immigrated to Australia. He job-hopped because he was dissatisfied with the jobs he was doing However, A is stuck with SIA and is now a chief steward. B was retrenched during the pandemic and is still unemployed.
In Singapore, A owns a 5 roomed HDB flat while B is renting a place in Australia. Both own a medium size car. I was told A has 2 children and B has none. A has a savings of at least S$50,000 while B has no savings. In fact B is on the dole which is about $1,000 a month. A as a chief steward is drawing a monthly take home pay of about $5,000.
Who is doing better....A or B?
