You have been warned. Day 0  fly from SIN-FCO via Singapore Airlines First meal of the day, usually served an hour after the flight has taken off. In this case, my flight was around 1:00AM, so I was eating a meal at 2AM ( Sometimes, I do hate taking red eye flights because , in general, sleep is interrupted.
