Business and
leisure vacationers who regularly seek air tickets for travelling between India and Singapore will be delighted to know
of the strong possibility of rise in the number of flights operating between
the two Asian destinations. Singapore Airlines and its subsidiaries are hoping
to enhance the frequency of flights to Indian destinations. There will be more
alternatives for those seeking tickets on India-Singapore route, once SIA amps
up its services to India.
Delhi, Hyderabad
and Chennai are three cities for where flights will be boosted by the carrier.
All this will happen, once Singaporean government works out allotment of India seats.
As of now, SIA operates three flights from India’s capital Delhi
and two each from Hyderabad
and Chennai per week. The services are expected to be augmented and more number
of seats will be available for travellers looking to buy tickets to Indian
cities. However, there will be no increase in the number of flight services to Mumbai as the airline is “already utilising maximum permitted seats from the
city.”
SIA together with its subsidiary SilkAir
and low-cost affiliate Tiger Airways use more than 70 per cent of capacity
between India and Singapore.
Together, the three operators offer tickets for about 29,000 one-way weekly
seats to India.
In contrast, Indian carriers are providing air tickets for about 11,000 one-way
weekly seats to Singapore.
SIA and SilkAir sell tickets for 98 weekly
flights to 11 destinations in India.
Tiger Airways, partially owned by SIA, offers tickets for 39 weekly flights to
six destinations in India.
