00:00Today I'm taking you with me from Brisbane Airport to London and showing you some of
00:03my favourite long haul hacks when flying premium economy with Singapore Airlines.
00:07I chose to use Brisbane Airport's valet parking service because it means I'm in the terminal
00:12within seconds.
00:13And I skip the duty free store as I've already ordered this to my seat with Singapore Airlines.
00:17My jet lag routine begins by clearing my work schedule for the start of my travels and changing
00:21my watch to the next time zone.
00:23Skipping the queues thanks to dedicated priority boarding, the real excitement sets in when
00:27you step on board.
00:28Wide seats with extra leg room, a deeper recline and a calf rest to really get you comfortable
00:33for the trip ahead.
00:34But before I cosy in, I'd like to share some of my awaiting duty free items with the crew.
00:39Now what I was most excited about for this trip was the food.
00:42The Singapore Airlines menu is world class and in premium economy you have access to book
00:47the cook.
00:47So before you fly, make sure you reserve a specialised main course meal.
00:51And when it comes to entertainment, Singapore Airlines Criswold has over 1800 options.
00:55So I like to pre-select my favourites into a playlist before immersing myself into that
01:0013.3 inch screen and comfy overhead noise cancelling headphones.
01:05The adventure continued at Chengi Airport, one of my favourite layover spots, before boarding
01:09my final flight where I now focus on sleep.
01:12Thanks to the out of the woods sustainably sourced amenity kit, I accumulated well over 8 hours
01:16of sleep before waking up to the view of London beneath me.
01:20And the best part is, Singapore Airlines operates 4 daily flights from Brisbane, with premium
01:24economy available on SQ266 from November 2026.
01:28So consider this, your sign to upgrade or book now.
