Singapore Airlines may raise No of flights from India

New Delhi:A traffic between Indian and Singapore increasing by nearly 25 per cent in the past year, Singapore Airlines is looking at increasing the number of flights from the country, a top company official said.
“We are always open to expansion. We are looking at increasing our flights from sectors like Bangalore. But then, our plans are subject to government regulations and the slots that we get,” the airline’s North India Manager Manjit Grewal said, adding the airline was also planning to add more destinations in the country.
When asked why the airlines was expanding its operations when the industry as a whole is trying to prune its services, he said, “We are an international airlines and we go only to those places where we get the passengers. We see the Indian sector growing.”
Explaining the rationale behind the expansion, Grewal said the airline had always enjoyed a good load factor in its operation from New Delhi.
