I flew Singapore Airlines for the first time and thought it was far better than US carriers. AKSARAN/Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images I flew on Singapore Airlines for the first time. I was surprised that I could select my seat for free in economy. The seats were spacious, the food was decent, and I loved the in-flight entertainment selection.
