Olympic Team Singapore: Do they fly Biz or Econ class?
- Thread starter peter_lee_1969
- Start date
six hours' flight only ... economy lah. maybe the ministers get first class.
Representing the country and if flying by 1st Class, why not?
sports council like most other gahmen dept think alike.... they only give u the very minimum, nt unless u're a potential gold medalist. i recall nt too long ago, most of our athletes rely mainly on FMF (father mother fund) for their trg & equipments. n i believe its very much the same case in present times.
they should consider themselves lucky to be flying on chartered flights econ class. nt too long ago, athletes had to dig into own pockets for their own flight n accomodations for sea games.

Basically I have no problems with athletes representing Singapore in Olympics on Biz Class or even 1st Class. Not many representatives and if flying by SQ, all from government which translates to taxpayers money.
It's more of a feel good feeling. The private sectors flies their executives via biz class, 1st class. I don't think we should treat athletes too shady on this.:o

Whatever he express himself, sure ganna laugh at. Hahaha
Private sector can justify by the revenue the indivdual pull in. What do the athletes justify with?
They should run bare foot there, maybe can improve their physical and who know really win a medal.
All athletes have signed contract before they are invited to participate in Olympic games. They are not confirmed return flight. If they win
bronze - cattle class
silver - business
gold - first
No medals
Swimmers - swim back home
Runners - run back home
etc etc
Those foreign imports who do not win any medal may opt not to perform all these as are already at place of origin.
