Singapore Airlines to increase flights on Hyderabad-Singapore route
Singapore Airlines Group has announced that starting on October 29, subject to regulatory approvals, its Hyderabad-Singapore services will increase from seven to twelve times weekly. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the airline’s services to the city.
Passengers flying from Hyderabad to Singapore and beyond will have more connectivity options with the new five-times weekly morning services. This will be flown onboard SIA’s Boeing 737-8 aircraft, each of which has 154 seats, 10 of which are in business class and 144 in economy. The SIA Airbus A350s, which have 303 seats total—40 in Business Class and 263 in Economy—will run the daily night services.

Singapore Airlines’ Sy Yen Chen, General Manager of India, stated that “the strategic restructuring of our Hyderabad network is a testament to our commitment to continuously evolve and meet the changing needs of our valued customers.”
Additionally, SIA Cargo has more prospects as a result of the expansion of A350 operations on the Hyderabad-Singapore route. Large cargo shipments that need to be put onto skids can be uplifted as a result of the aircraft’s larger body. Aside from that, several types of temperature-sensitive goods require the aircraft’s temperature control capabilities.
