Singapore Airlines boosts flight capacity for 2026 summer

Singapore Airlines has announced adjustments to its flight schedules for the 2026 Northern Summer season, which runs from 29 March to 24 October. The airline will increase flight frequencies and passenger capacity on several routes to meet rising travel demand. Notably, Singapore Airlines will add a daily service to Bangkok, bringing the total to seven daily flights, and increase flights to Yangon to 10 times weekly.

The airline will also enhance its Singapore-Surabaya route to 21 weekly services and increase flights to Colombo from 10 weekly services to twice daily starting 1 May 2026. Additionally, the Airbus A380 will be deployed on the Singapore-Dubai route for the first time, responding to strong demand for premium cabins.

Dai Haoyu, Senior Vice President Marketing Planning at Singapore Airlines, stated, “Singapore Airlines continually reviews our route network to align capacity with customer demand. These adjustments provide customers with more travel options and improved connectivity across key markets, particularly during peak seasonal periods.”

Further changes include delinking the Singapore-Milan-Barcelona service to offer a direct five-times weekly service to Barcelona from 1 July to 3 September. The airline will also introduce its First Class cabin on the Singapore-Amsterdam route with the Boeing 777-300ER from 1 July.

These strategic adjustments are part of Singapore Airlines’ efforts to enhance connectivity and service offerings across its global network, ensuring passengers have more travel options during the busy summer season.
