Q Do you know if there is an opportunity to stretch legs or take a shower in Singapore on BA16 SYD-LHR which only has a fuel stop?

A British Airways’ once-extensive network between the UK and Australia – with frequent Boeing 747s serving Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth and Melbourne as well as Sydney – has now shrunk to a single daily round trip from London Heathrow to the nation’s biggest city, using a smaller Boeing 777. This is a reflection of the intense competition, especially from Asian and Gulf-based airlines.
