Singapore Airlines suspends flights, cuts all-business class services

2nd Jan 2009

Singapore Airlines is to suspend many of its international flights as the worsening global economy takes its toll on travel demand. Flights to India, Southeast Asia, the United States and Europe will be affected.

SIA is also reducing its all-business class service to New York and Los Angeles in the face of the global economic downturn. The 14 weekly Airbus A345 flights will be cut to 10. The non-stop all-business service to New York began in May last year, followed by Los Angeles in August. SIA said its December passenger numbers were down 7.5 per cent year-on-year.

The changes will be implemented very quickly, and will apply until the end of March.

The cuts include:
