Verified travelerFlew with Qantas Airways-Mar 2026
Fly to Bangkok or Kuala Lumpur then to Melbourne/ Sydney. Having a bit longer to sleep makes a huge difference. Changi has a great airport though for quick boarding. But maybe avoid Qantas
Verified travelerFlew with Singapore Airlines-Feb 2024
Bear in mind you have to go through security just before you board so give yourself plenty of time get to the gate early.
