I just hope they would expand their network to Melbourne to increase the competition here.
- funkioto on 07/01/2013 - 13:46 ¶
  
  Not sure about now but they only had 2 planes when they started.
  Maybe once the fleet expands they will come to Melbs.

    I believe Scoot are sniff around Melbourne as they've been rumoured to be in talks with Avalon when it gets it's international terminal built.

    That's if you consider Geelong/Avalon as Melbourne (it's like calling Wollongong, Sydney

      Avalon, ugh. Better than nothing in Melbourne I guess, but Tullamarine would be so much more convenient.
    - berger on 07/01/2013 - 17:18 ¶
      
      If a direct train line to Avalon was in place I would go there. Melb airport too busy! But then if the was a train to melb airport I would go there too!

whilst i agree scootbiz is probably not the fanciest business class, in fact it is just a bigger, more comfy chair… they have inflight upgrades available for about $100 AUD (Syd <—> Sin) from eco -> scootbiz if there are seats available, which is a fantastic deal as this comes with the blanket, eye cover, neck pillow ($25), food and drinks ($25+). =D

pushniacki on 07/01/2013 - 17:24 ¶

Can I just ask, why this is such a great bargain when standby upgrades to Scootbiz are a mere $99? A 'Fly' price for an April date is about $520 and Scootbiz, with the discount, is $782. Even WITH FlyBagEat, it's only $583, so you're paying about $200 - $250 more for Scootbiz when you can get the upgrade at the airport for $99…

What's more, is that Scootbiz will be far more packed because of the perceived 'saving' so you're better off saving your money and just getting a S-T-R-E-T-C-H seat (the yellow ones), since these aren't purchased as much.

Sorry OP, I really did want to like this deal, but logically, I can't see how this is a bargain. If Scootbiz is much better that a S-T-R-E-T-C-H seat then maybe it's justifiable, but Scootbiz just offers slightly more legroom, and that's it. Period.

Also there are no more free iPads handed out for entertainment any more, and the 'pillow and blanket' are just really trivial. $250 for a fraction more of an inch and a more crowded cabin? No thank you. Stick with FlyBagEat and S-T-R-E-T-C-H if you want need the extra space.

  now you mention it, i recall seeing the signs in the queue for check-in

    pushniacki on 07/01/2013 - 21:18 ¶
    
    So you'd pay $200+ more, just to save between 10 to 40 minutes in check-in? I mean, sure, you're checked in faster, but then you end up having to join the economy queue when it comes to customs and security anyway (no Express Track for Scootbiz). Then after that, you're all waiting for the same plane, in the same place (Scootbiz doesn't have lounge access).
    
    Priority check-in makes sense if there's an Express Pass waiting and a lounge ahead. Scoot offers neither. The only thing it offers is for you to (pointlessly) act tall and mighty over the economy people for 2 minutes, and allows you to reach the MacDonalds queue maybe 30 seconds before the economy passenger behind you.

  How will you get the $99 upgrade if all the seats are sold from this deal?
  
  Since when did the stretch seat increase seat width by 5 inches?

    oringal on 07/01/2013 - 19:36 ¶
    
    they only offer the $99 upgrade when there are free seats to make you spend more at check in
    - jesseboy89 on 07/01/2013 - 23:12 ¶
      
      Exactly right, so there won't be any left for this period. So that point pushniacki is moot.
  - pushniacki on 07/01/2013 - 21:39 ¶
    
    Scoot (blue) economy seat is 31"
    Super seat (yellow) is 35"
    S-T-R-E-T-C-H (yellow bulkhead) is 38"
    Scootbiz is 38"
    
    So sure, book Scootbiz if you like, but all you get is literally 2 minutes of (unjustified) entitlement at 'priority' check-in. You eat the same food as the EatFlyBag people, and it cost the same $22SGD to rent an iPad as the 'Fly People'. So as you spend $250 to enjoy your 2 minutes at check-in, the guy who booked a S-T-R-E-T-C-H seat gets the same seat pitch as you, most likely one or two other seats next to him free, whilst you're jammed pack in Scootbiz with other people who feel they've snagged a 'bargain.'
    
    What's more, is that if you wanted the seat (although I don't understand why), you could've just spent $99 at standby instead of $200-$250 pre-booking.
    
    It's amazing how simply having the label 'biz' makes people think they're getting a better product or getting a bargain. Well done to Scoot I guess…
    - jesseboy89 on 07/01/2013 - 23:15 ¶
      
      I said seat WIDTH, not pitch… The biz seat is 5" wider.
      And you won't be able to spend the extra $99, because this deal will book those seats out.
      
      You replied to my post, yet you completely ignored what it said. I'm not even going to buy the product, nor would I ever fly with them, but gee whiz.

      pushniacki on 08/01/2013 - 02:59 ¶
      
      It's pointless to try and tell someone about an airline when they flatly believe they know better. It's simple: I'm saying (many times now) to NOT book Scootbiz as it's nominally better than EatFlyBag on S-T-R-E-T-C-H. If you believe that 'width' in a crammed cabin is better than having two or three seats to yourself in S-T-R-E-T-C-H, then you're entitled to that.
      
      And in regards to the $99 standby upgrade. As stated before (sounding like broken record), you shouldn't even be doing it since EatFlyBag is enough, but if you (for some unknown reason) prefer Scootbiz at the last minute, you can do so at the check-in desk instead of pre-booking online, since the product difference is so nominal (hence why would you pre-book Scootbiz in the first place?).
      
      Just remember that S-T-R-E-T-C-H are bulkhead seats with 38" of seat pitch. The reason these are comparable, or even better than Scootbiz is (1) same pitch as Scootbiz (2) No-one to recline their seat onto you. You'll still get reclined on, on pretty much all of the Scootbiz seats, so not very 'advantageous' over the economy S-T-R-E-C-H…

      I'm a skinny bloke, but I can see how a guaranteed additional 5" in width would be required for larger persons.
      
      I can't understand what your agenda is, but it's a massive broken record and does not take into consideration all scenarios.
    - ozpete on 08/01/2013 - 14:50 ¶
      
      He makes a point. If it doesn't suits you then so be it, but like you say about a broken record in a sense you are also belabouring your point as well.
      
      While I have never flown Scoot, I will look at what he and others say as a possibility and decide when and if I fly with them.

Terrible food on my Scoot flights. Others complained.
Don't understand why so many '+' for flying on basic low cost airline at a dearer price.
Got $99 Scoot flight from GC to SIN in 2 weeks. Will bring my own snacks.

    I haven't eaten KFC in years, but it would have been better than the dried out rubbish served when I have flown. As the discount arm of Singapore Airlines (known for its food) it came as a shock. I was attending the Singapore Food Festival. Was not a good start.
    
    Otherwise no problems with Scoot - for the cheap flights.
    It is after all just public transport.

      Regarding drinking being a priority over airline food… I had free access to the bar on a Japan Airlines flight Narita to Heathrow - maybe because I was a lot bigger than the hosties, who were too polite to ask for the bottle of 12 year old whiskey back. Happily dispensed it to my new friends, and one for me. I will never drink alcohol on a flight again! I never knew I could make such a mess of all walls & floor of a toilet!! (I know - too much detail.) Arriving drunk / hung-over is the worst. Now I have respect for those who have to put up with people like me.
      
      I'll stick with the food if reasonable, and most is. Just that Scoots is the worst I have tried on any airline. Being served purple rice porridge gruel with just a salted plum floating in it, on a cheap China Eastern Airlines flight Beijing to Seoul, was preferable to what I attempted to eat on Scoot. I spat out my first mouthful of all cooked meals. Would never try again.
      
      Have packed muesli bars, dried fruit & will drink water on my Scoot flight to SIN. Will make me look forward to an evening of wonderful food in Little India, or maybe a Chilli Crab! Now thats worth waiting an 8 hour flight for. I don't think any airline food can compare with that.
