Singapore Airlines is following up on its record-breaking service to New York City with its four non-stop route to the United States – non-stop flights between Singapore & Seattle.
Commencing 3 September 2019, the airline will initially operate three times per week between the two cities before increasing to four times per week in October 2019.
Singapore Airlines said it will use its A350-900 aircraft on the route – the same aircraft the airline uses on flights to New York and will use on flights to Adelaide later this year. This means, guests will have access to 42 Business Class, 24 Premium Economy Class and 187 Economy Class seats.
Subject to regulatory approvals, flight SQ28 will initially depart Singapore at 0925hrs every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and arrive in Seattle at 0905hrs on the same day (all times local).
The return sector, operated as SQ27, will depart Seattle at 1040hrs every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and arrive in Singapore the following day at 1730hrs. From October 2019, flight SQ28 and flight SQ27 will operate every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
“Our new non-stop flights to Seattle are another demonstration of our commitment to expand our operations in the important US market and grow our network reach.”
Goh Choon Phong, Singapore Airlines CEO
“The new services will also further strengthen the Singapore hub by providing customers faster and more convenient connectivity from key markets such as Southeast Asia, South Asia and Australasia to North America.”
The new Seattle flights will complement Singapore Airlines’ existing services to the US cities of Houston, Los Angeles, New York (both JFK and Newark airports) and San Francisco. Singapore Airlines recently introduced daily non-stop flights between Singapore and New York (Newark) and from tomorrow will fly non-stop between Singapore and Los Angeles using Airbus A350-900ULR (ultra-long-range) aircraft. Existing non-stop services to San Francisco will also be increased from seven to 10 flights per week with effect from 28 November 2018.
Tickets will be made available for sale progressively from 7 November 2018 through the various distribution channels.
