Business Class
Manufactured by Stelia Aerospace, the new regional Business Class seats on the 787-10s are arranged in a forward-facing 1-2-1 staggered configuration to provide every customer direct aisle access.
With each seat being able to recline directly into a 76” fully-flat beds, Business Class customer flying on Singapore Airlines B787-10s are spoiled and travel in more comfort! Remember the Singapore B787-10 will mainly deploy on regional route, I can’t think of any other airline offer fully flat bed on regional configured plane like this!
Economy Class
Designed and built by RECARO, the new Economy Class seat also offers an enhanced in-flight experience. Arranged in a 3-3-3 configuration, each of the 301 Economy Class seats on the new 787-10s has an ergonomically-designed contour backrest that provides greater comfort, with a six-way adjustable headrest with foldable wings to provide more neck support.
Other features that economy class customers can look forward to include personal storage space for small items, a coat hook, USB port and in-seat power supply.
The new B787-10s are configured with 337 seats in two classes, featuring 36 Business Class seats and 301 Economy Class seats.
Singapore Airlines 787-10s will be used on flights up to eight hours and will commence scheduled service between Singapore and both Osaka and Perth in May 2018, with more destinations to be added as additional aircraft are received. Prior to these services, the aircraft will be operated on select services to Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur for crew training purposes.
Singapore Airlines is the largest customer for the 787-10, with firm orders for 49 of the type. The airline also has a firm order with Boeing for 20 777-9s, which are due for delivery from the 2021/22 financial year.

Video Review
Hi Sam, which (true) window seat do you recommend for the best engine view? Thanks
Best view on the 787-10 is the last row in J class or 1st row in Y class.
Hi Sam…..
Nice report and review.
This is the business class seats that i’m looking for which i like most. Foot cubby is wide. Most importantly , we don’t have to sleep “Diagonally” or “Slanting” / mode. My favourites do far, Sam.
Hi Sam! I just watched your video about the Singapore Airlines Boeing 787-10. It’s amazing and I like the race part the most. Looking forward to more videos from you. P.S. please give me the teddy bear. Today is my birthday…. 😉
Great!, I hope you will come to Indonesia again. You’re in Singapore now? Yeah close enough from Indonesia. Try Garuda Indonesia flight SIN-CGK or SIN-DPS
A very nice aircraft of Boeing 787-10. I lobe the business class which you don’t have to sleep on a SLANTING MODE compared to their other new business class seat. I simply love this Regional Business Class more. Thumbs up for me. Economy class impressive as well. Love the colour which brings positive vibe.
Hi Sam it will be interesting to see what the new 787 is like.
You always show us flights of you in business class which is great but majority of people can’t afford to fly business so how about flying economy and giving us your thoughts on economy class on different airlines.
I flew business due to my back injury only because economy was no good for me on long flights but unfortunately do to expense I have had to go back to economy and will be flying on Singapore airlines from Melbourne to Manila in June so I am interested in your thoughts about how you manage in economy.
You don’t need to beautify Singapore Airline. It IS THE BEST. Sometime ago when I used to travel more than 100,000 miles every year, my preferred airline was SINGAPORE.
I never forget the “SQ 1” that was ALWAYS offered to me durind reservation. Using the SQ 1 made me feel at home and sleeping im my own confortable bed. Unfortunately, then, there was ONLY one SQ 1 on certain flights, before introducing the “flat bed”. Singapore Airline was the only one which started with a confortable sleep, that was the SQ 1` The flight attendants were the most gentle and most well behaved than any other airline Attendants, except PAN AM which was, also, an excellent airline.
While appreciating Business Class amenities shown, why is economy Class passengers always short changed?
Be it in refreshments served, gifts given, magazine selection,—,—?
You get what you pay for, very simple logic. Economy class tickets these days are relatively “cheap” and very good value. Pay more and you get more value.
Wow. Those flight attendants are beautiful.
Hope there’s a video!!
Yes this Friday! Vlog on Youtube!
