Singapore Airlines (SIA) and SilkAir will continue to restore services and rebuild their network in the coming months.Â
Scoot’s services to Kuala Lumpur, Manila, and Perth will be temporarily suspended, while SIA and SilkAir will increase their frequencies on those routes.
At the same time, SIA and SilkAir will temporarily suspend services to Penang, Surabaya, and Taipei while Scoot will operate to these destinations at higher frequencies.
These changes, which are subject to regulatory approvals, are expected to take place in November and December 2020.
The affected travel period for these destinations are as follows:
- Kuala Lumpur: From 17 November 2020
- Manila: From 4 December 2020
- Penang: From 8 December 2020
- Perth: From 5 December 2020
- Surabaya: From 9 December 2020
- Taipei: From 16 December 2020
Customers with existing bookings on the affected flights for Penang, Surabaya, and Taipei will be notified of the changes to their bookings.
The adjustment of services between SIA, SilkAir, and Scoot is the result of a detailed review to determine which airlines in the SIA Group portfolio are best suited to meet evolving customer and cargo demand.
As a result of these changes, the Group’s passenger capacity will reach approximately 20% of its pre-Covid-19 levels1 by the end of March 2021.
The SIA Group continues to grow its passenger capacity and resume selected services in a safe and calibrated manner. This is partly driven by recent moves to ease restrictions on both transit and inbound passengers in a safe and gradual manner, helping to support an increase in travel demand.
This also comes amid some early signs of optimism about a recovery in air travel, as well as ongoing positive developments in both testing regimes and potential vaccines. Capacity increases are also underpinned by continued strong demand for air cargo around the world, with available freight space remaining constrained compared to pre-Covid-19 levels.
SIA is currently flying to the following countries and regions:
- South East Asia: Brunei; Cambodia; Indonesia; Malaysia; Thailand; The Philippines; Vietnam
- North Asia: China; Hong Kong SAR China; Japan; South Korea; Taiwan, China
- West Asia and Africa: Bangladesh; Maldives; Nepal; South Africa
- South West Pacific: Australia; New Zealand
- Europe: Denmark; France; Germany; Italy; Spain; Switzerland; The Netherlands; The United Kingdom; Turkey
- The Americas: The United States
