If SQ news is true, then I have my concerns about the long term plans of SQ to MAN.
The proposed scheduled arrival time into MAN is just 20 minutes later than under the existing arrangements. But the overall flight time will be substantially reduced as a result of not stopping at MUC en route. Departure on the MAN-SIN sector is 55 minutes later than at present, again with a much quicker flight time. Surely that has to go down as a major improvement for customers familiar with the service?

Timings on the transatlantic sectors seem pretty standard compared with similar services. Most travellers should be fine with those as well.
