On my recent flight on Singapore Airlines to and from Beijing, I was pleased to discover that they have included soy bean milk as one of their beverages on board. This is for economy class as well–I know because that’s the class I always fly! I’m not THAT high up in the company hierarchy. In fact, I’m not high up. Period.
But if I read the inflight magazine correctly, this is only for flights to and from Beijing, Taipei and Hong Kong. I can’t quite remember the exact details, but I know it doesn’t apply to all SQ flights.
Anyway, I got excited because I love drinking soy bean milk. And I usually like to have it warm. So I asked for it. Note: it’s not usually placed on that trolley when they come round to serve you drinks. You have to request for it. So I guess it’s only for those who read the inflight magazine and come to know of it!
Then I realised that it’s really no loss if you don’t know of it. ‘Cos the soy bean milk SQ serves tastes really gross!!! It’s so diluted and tasteless, and there’s no presence of the smooth, rich taste of soy bean. I don’t know which brand of soy bean milk they use, but my suggestion is that they change it pronto!!! I think I shall write in to SQ catering and give them some feedback. Let’s see what they say about it!
