SQ A345 Route

Hi Guys,

Does anyone have any idea as to which route will the SIA A345 take when they fly non-stop to Newark from Singapore?As far as I know,there's one route that is shown on website whereby the aircraft has to fly all the way up north towards the arctic ocean in a parabolic kind of flight path.Why is this so?Is it because of the fact that it is taking advantage of the jetstream?Or is it something related to the Great Circle?I really appreciate if anyone could shed any light on this.

Warmest Regards,
Vibes
