"Singapore Airlines is fully committed to the South African market and the deployment of the three additional weekly flights between Johannesburg and Singapore reflects our commitment. We have listened to our customers and travel trade partners’ feedback to increase capacity on this route to bring better connectivity for South Africans to Singapore and beyond with our extensive network in the Asia Pacific region such as Australia, China, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand and Thailand," said Kian Hwa Chua, general manager for Central and Southern Africa.
