How can I tell which Version I’m flying on?

If you’re flying in Business Class and the seat map ends at row 22, you’re in an A350-900 LH aircraft, if it ends at row 21 you’re in an A350-900 MH aircraft (you’re on the right page already), and if it ends at row 29 you’re in an A350-900 ULR aircraft.

If you’re flying Premium Economy Class and the seat map goes up to row 33, you’re in an A350-900 LH aircraft. If it goes up to row 43, you’re in an A350-900 ULR. The A350-900 Medium Haul does not feature a Premium Economy cabin.

If you’re flying Economy Class and the seat map goes up to row 62, you’re in an A350-900 LH aircraft. If it goes up to row 70, you’re in an A350-900 MH (you’re on the right page already)The A350-900 ULR does not feature an Economy cabin.

The A350-900 Medium Haul started flying in the Singapore Airlines fleet on 17th December 2018 between Singapore and Adelaide, then the following day between Singapore and Jakarta. Flights to Brisbane and Kuala Lumpur followed shortly afterwards, with the aircraft now in extensive use, having effectively replaced the carrier’s Airbus A330s, which left the fleet prematurely in early 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The aircraft is fitted with the 2018 Regional Business Class seats, which also feature on SIA’s Boeing 787-10 aircraft. We have a full review of the product available here.

A350-900 MH Business Class

Singapore Airlines’ 2018 Regional Business Class seats on the A350 MH aircraft are arranged in a ‘staggered 1-2-1’ layout, as they are on the Boeing 787-10 aircraft. Though the seats are identical, the aisles on the A350 are slightly wider by about 6cm each compared to the 787, due to the wider fuselage.
