Singapore Airlines (SIA) has resumed operating thrice-weekly flights between Singapore and the Munich hub, marking the German city’s first link to Asia since the pandemic started.
The airline operated its first flight from Singapore to Munich yesterday (January 20). Using an Airbus A350-900, flights from Singapore will take place on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, while those from Munich will depart on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
Singapore Airlines will depart from Munich three times per week
Sek Eng Lee, SIA regional vice president for Europe, said that the development “affirms our confidence of incipient market recovery”.
Jost Lammers, Munich Airport CEO, added: “Resuming the non-stop link between Munich and Singapore sends a very important signal, especially in these challenging times. Providing a well-established connection for business travellers and an efficient route for cargo, the Singapore Airlines flights will help to bring back some semblance of normality.”
