Slightly OT.
Early morning flight from Changi without good connecting flight, hence have to arrive late the day before.
May I know what is the best choice to overnight in Changi, with SQ Business class ticket?
SilverKris lounge good for overnight?
Will try to explore "free" lounge before opting for paid airside room.
Thanks.

Thanks for your info.
How much is 6 hr aerotel?

Hmm... RM400 is on the high side.
Someone mentioned about $40 (maybe in USD, not SGD, but still much better than RM400).
Will try to explore more.

Thanks for the update

Officially, Amex - The Platinum Card, you can bring along a guest with you (with PP).

Unofficially, you can use your card to swipe for your guest.
You can use 2 cards (from different bank) to swipe in for both of you (most of the lounges accept this).

AirAsia - T4
MH/SQ - T1/2/3

If you land in T4, you can't go to T1/2/3 airside.
You may search for my reply earlier regarding crossing from T4 to T1/2/3 (maybe in V3).

Never try TGM breakfast, usually taking nice dinner there.
PPL standard food lo.
Blossom heard that not bad, seldom fly T4 recently.

Should be no problem

T1/2/3 are interconnected, you can walk anywhere you like.
T4 is a separate terminal, only can access by internal shuttle (bus) once you are in airside.

In short, T4 is a substandard terminal, avoid if possible.
If your flight in T4, you can only check in from T4, and don't think of leaving to other terminals once you are inside (too troublesome, better enjoy your time in Blossom lounge).
If you land in T4, you have to leave straight.

I think is 2 hour before boarding, not departure.
T4 to T2 and back to T4, transit + waiting time alone is almost 1 hour.
It is not worth your hassle if you have exactly 2 hours (or even 3).
End up I was rushing for my meal in TGM, totally not enjoy the food.
I will suggest you to do so only if you have >4 hours.

MBB & AMB can access quite a number of lounges worldwide.
However, if you need more, you have to look into Priority Pass / Loungekey / Dragon Pass.
Refer to first page for more info.

Yes

Refer my post below from another thread.
It is more appropriate to ask there.

I remembered we discussed about this a few weeks ago.
Try to search for it.
If not mistaken, the supp card holder has to be "preferred" customer too.
I can't understand how it works.

I will keep my arrture for HK PP First Lounge

It WAS the best card for lounge access, seriously the best...
Gone the good old days.

By the way, it is no longer unlimited access, limited to 5.
Unlimited access only applicable for Signature (priority banking) customer and they don't need to fulfill RM500 criteria.

Nevertheless, it is still not bad, as it has relatively good access to a number of lounges worldwide, with no AF incurred.
Besides, it allows supp card holder to access PPL too, this is the sole reason I still keep the card where I supp for my parents for their overseas trip.

Yes, for those cards limited to one entry a day, including those with "unlimited access".
Ie Ambank Signature WMC (Priority banking) with unlimited access, but it is still limited to once a day.

SCB is offering LK for worldwide lounge access.
If you intend to get Ambank Signature for unlimited access, you rather opt for SBC.

Sign up bonus, but not much reason to retain besides the 2 listed above.
Unless you wanna redeem Etihad.

Spending 10k for LK is acceptable la
You are not getting zero in return, just a lower value

Exactly.
Btw, HLB World/Elite is offering complimentary airport transfer with Grab (RM100/88).
It will be good for other cards to follow this.

Yes, they want us to spend with their card in overseas.
For genuine usage, RM2k isn't an issue.

Yup, emirates miles will auto transfer into emirates acc.
However, yet to receive their sign up bonus.

From my personal experience, I suggest you look into the following cards:
RHB WMC, HSBC VS, Aeon, AMB WMC, PBB WMC

Generally, CC is offering lounge access in hope that you bring them along during overseas trip (yes, most of us will only bring 2-3 CC along).
Hence, most bank has cut down lounge access for domestic traveling, only can access to lounge in international departure.

For int'l departure, both RHB and HSBC are quite good.
RHB has no AF while HSBC, you need to swipe once a month for AF waiver.
If you managed to bump your salary to 120k (after include bonus / passive income etc), you can opt for AMB which gives you a lot more options for overseas lounges, no AF but you need to spend RM500 for each access.
For AMB, you can supp a card for your partner, where it allows supp card holder to enter with his/her supp card.

Aeon is still good for domestic traveling (if not mistaken).
Same for PBB, but it only has 2/3x access (combine with supp).

Last but not least, most of the cards only allow 1 access / day.
Meaning KL - Sg (transit) - XX, you can't use same card in both KL and Sg.
