SIA, Silk Air to swap flights on Kolkata operations

Kolkata: Singapore Airlines plans to be nimble footed and provide just-in-time additional capacity during rush seasons like summer and winter vacations and Durga Puja.

Speaking to TOI, airline general manager David Lau said the airline did not plan to increase frequency like Thai Airways and Emirates but operate larger aircraft anticipating demand during peak traffic seasons.

"We will rejig the aircraft that is operated by Singapore Airlines and sister airline Silk Air to offer optimum capacity. When traffic is lean, we will operate four Silk Air and three Singapore Airlines flights to Kolkata a week. When traffic increases, we will operate four Singapore Airlines and three Silk Air flights," Lau said.
