Singapore Airlines customers flying to Mumbai and New Delhi will be able to experience the world’s largest aircraft from late May, with the deployment of the Airbus A380 on select flights.
The A380 superjumbo will operate daily to both Mumbai and New Delhi with effect from 30 May 2014, taking over from two daily flights that currently serve each city using smaller Boeing 777s. Another daily flight will continue to be operated with B777s. In total, 14 flights will serve each city per week.
For travel to India, passengers coming from Manila can choose from four daily flights to Singapore to connect conveniently to Mumbai and New Deli, while passengers coming from Cebu or Davao can fly to Singap ore via SilkAir. Passengers connecting through Singapore can also take advantage of the Singapore Stopover Package, which is inclusive of overnight hotel accommodation with roundtrip airport transfers for as low as USD35. Those traveling beyond Southeast Asia are also entitled to a SGD20 Changi Dollar Voucher that may be used at the different outlets in Changi International Airport.
“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,” said Singapore Airlines Senior Vice President Marketing Planning, Lee Wen Fen.
