You know you're travelling in style when your toilet has a view.

This room with a view is one of the unique features of Singapore Airlines' new aircraft that will fly non-stop daily between Singapore and Los Angeles from Feb 3.

The crew raved about the plane's smooth ride and say passengers do not have to worry about its welfare.

Captain H.K. Leong, Chief Pilot of A345 Leadership, SIA, said: "The pilots have their own rest facilities and that's how we use that to extend the duty time. Two sets of crew, so they take rest and that's why we come back we can still talk to you, otherwise we would be too tired."

..."his flight and cabin crew emerged, they were greeted with applause and garlands."

"Mr Michael Tan, led the welcome party at the passenger holding area in Terminal 2."

"When they leave Singapore in the afternoon and arrive in LA, you can connect to almost all the cities in the USA, and when you arrive in Singapore you can connect to practically all the cities in Southeast Asia," said Mr. Michael Tan Jiak Ngee.
