Singapore Airlines (SIA) Group reported a significant rise in passenger traffic for June 2025, with a 4.5% increase compared to the previous year. This surge was driven by the onset of the summer travel season and mid-year school holidays in Singapore. The group’s passenger load factor (PLF) improved by 1.3 percentage points to 88.7%, with SIA and its low-cost subsidiary, Scoot, achieving PLFs of 87.7% and 92.2% respectively.
The combined efforts of SIA and Scoot resulted in carrying 3.5 million passengers, marking an 8.2% increase from June 2024. The available seat-kilometres (ASK) for the group rose by 3.1%, whilst revenue passenger-kilometres (RPK) increased by 4.5%, reflecting the robust demand for air travel.
On the cargo side, the SIA Group experienced a modest 0.4% increase in cargo loads, which did not keep pace with the 3.3% growth in cargo capacity. Consequently, the cargo load factor fell by 1.6 percentage points to 56.4%. This was attributed to front-loading activities amidst uncertainties in the global trade environment.
In June, Scoot expanded its network by launching a three-times weekly service to Vienna, Austria. By the end of the month, the SIA Group’s passenger network spanned 129 destinations across 37 countries and territories, with SIA serving 78 destinations and Scoot 73. The cargo network covered 133 destinations in 38 countries and territories.
