SINGAPORE Airlines (SIA) and SilkAir are increasing the number of destinations in their network, as well as frequencies on some existing services, in June and July 2020.

Reinstated scheduled services include flights to Adelaide, Amsterdam, Auckland, Barcelona, Brisbane, Cebu, Christchurch, Copenhagen, Hong Kong, Medan, Melbourne and Osaka.

“All flights are subject to regulatory approvals. Please note that these schedules are subject to changes. Customers will be informed of schedule changes via SMS and email,” SIA said in a statement recently.

The carrier said with the announcement, SIA has cut approximately 94 percent of the passenger capacity that had been originally scheduled for June and July 2020 due to the Covid-19 outbreak.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) made an announcement last month that travellers will gradually be allowed to transit through Singapore’s Changi Airport from June 2.

CAAS also said “stringent measures” will be in place at Changi Airport to ensure that transit passengers remain in designated facilities in the transit area and “do not mix with other passengers”.

Singapore Airlines said it would announce its plans for “these transfer lanes when they have been finalised” and until then “customers will not be able to transit through Changi Airport.”
