Singapore Airlines will lift its Adelaide-Singapore service to 12 flights a week from 25 October 2026, upping capacity by more than 1,300 seats into and out of South Australia each year with flights now bookable.
The carrier will increase from its current 10 weekly flights between Adelaide and Singapore to 12 weekly services, delivering a further 1,328 seats each week into and out of the SA capital.
It’s the first time an international airline has operated 12 flights a week year-round out of Adelaide, connecting South Australian travellers to Singapore Changi Airport and onward on Singapore Airlines‘ global network.
The extra frequency gives Adelaide travellers more choice for one-stop connections to South-East Asia, Europe and the UK via Changi, one of the region’s largest hubs.
Singapore is currently South Australia’s seventh-largest market by visitor expenditure with a growing number of holidaymakers, so the added capacity serves both inbound and outbound demand.
Adelaide Airport Managing Director Brenton Cox said: “Singapore Airlines has been an incredible supporter of the Adelaide market for more than four decades and was a groundbreaker in providing South Australians with one-stop connections to Europe and the UK. Now they offer more options than ever before to fly to Singapore and connect with their significant global network.”
Singapore Airlines Regional Vice President South-West Pacific Foo Chai Woo said: “Building on our legacy of strongly supporting the South Australian market and with robust travel demand into and out of Adelaide, we’re happy to offer our customers even more choice and more capacity with 12 weekly services from December 2026.”
South Australian Minister for Tourism Emily Bourke said the additional capacity reflects the growing appeal of the state and strong growth in the Asian market over the previous year, mirroring the wider surge in Asian demand that is driving more China flights into Sydney and Melbourne.
KARRYON UNPACKS: With 1,328 more seats on 12 flights per week and a year-round schedule, Adelaide clients gain a more reliable one-stop path to Asia, Europe and the UK through Singapore Changi. Two extra services to Singapore also ease pressure on peak-season availability out of a smaller gateway that has traditionally had tighter international capacity.
