SIA switches to A380 for Mumbai, New Delhi routes

SINGAPORE Airlines is upgrading aircraft deployment on selected flights from Singapore to Mumbai and New Delhi.

From May 30, the daily Airbus A380 service to Mumbai and New Delhi will replace the twice-daily flights to each city served by Boeing 777s.

Another daily flight will retain the use of B777s for a total of 14 flights a week each to Mumbai and New Delhi.

Lee Wen Fen, senior vice president marketing planning, Singapore Airlines, said: “We have been keen to operate the Airbus A380 to India and are glad that the Air Services Agreement between Singapore and India now allows us to do so.”

“India is a particularly important market for Singapore Airlines and we are very pleased that more of our customers will soon be able to experience the spaciousness and comfort of the world’s largest aircraft.”
