Sounds alright, if you are into this sort of thing. I am not much of a
movie guy - and I certainly could not care less about LOTR. If I can't
sleep, I'll read a book or work. But for someone who cares about IFE,
I guess SQ might be a good choice. I'd rather have a nonstop flight
and get wherever I am going quicker.

Too bad they only fly to a handful of cities in the US.

They don't fly to my part of the world. I've been averaging between
100K and 150K miles every year, and I don't think I've ever flown
on a route served by SQ. But then again, I hardly ever go to Asia
(outside Japan).

Hm. Is this supposed to be good or bad?
