For the final entry to wrap up this travel series, let’s take a look at the flight back home in Business Class onboard Singapore Airlines SQ177 from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Operated by Airbus 350-900, the flight offered a reassuring sense of familiarity and comfort even if it was a brief one.

SIN: Singapore Airlines SQ177 (Business) <YOU ARE HERE!>
Boarding was called right on schedule.
 |
| Was that a private jet in the background? |
The airline's medium-haul Airbus 350-900 is designed for regional flights between 3 to 8 hours.
 |
| The seats are arranged in a 1-2-1 layout, offering direct aisle access to all passengers. |
 |
| There are 3 rows in the smaller Business Class cabin at the back. |
As I settled into my seat, the soft leather upholstery immediately made me feel at ease.
 |
Besides a power outlet, there are two USB-A ports.
|
 |
| That’s as far as the privacy divider could go. |
 |
| I love the massive plush pillow. |
I enjoyed the welcome drink even if hot towel service was absent.
Shortly after finishing my drink, a flight attendant came by to ask what drink I'd like to have after take-off, as well as my choice of main course for lunch. Anyway, have a look at the menu.
 |
| While they no longer list face masks now, it's likely you can still ask for one if need be. |
 |
| What's your favourite cocktail? |
The safety demonstration video was shown as we taxied to the runway.
 |
| Little did I know I'd go to Ho Chi Minh City again to meet not just one, but three friends, soon enough! |
If you haven't seen the post in my food blog yet, care to make a guess what cocktail did I have with the nuts once airborne?

Lunch main course #1: Grilled Fish Fillet with Mustard Cream Sauce
|
 |
| Lunch main course #1: Stir-Fried Kong Pao Chicken |
I spent a fair bit of time exploring KrisWorld, the airline's In-Flight Entertainment.
 |
Perhaps too short for a movie, but perfect for a quick travel binge! Take me back to Hokkaido!
|
 |
| Singapore Airlines flies to Ho Chi Minh City twice to thrice daily depending on the time of the year. |
I had the chance to lie down for a while.
 |
| Purple-tinted ambient lighting: my favourite colour! |
Let's check out one of the lavatories in the cabin.
 |
| Always nice to see fresh flowers in a lavatory! |
 |
| The wonderfully citrusy Quercus by Penhaligon's was first launched in 1996. |
Soon enough, we were already on our approach into Changi Airport.
We finally landed and arrived at Terminal 3.
That’s a wrap! I look forward to visiting more prefectures across Japan, slowly working my way towards completing all 47.
