Singapore Airlines Will Operate New Daily Flights to Munich and Manchester

September 1st 2010, Singapore Airlines (SIA) will operate new daily flights for the route Singapore-Munich-Manchester, with two new weekly routes available in addition to the five existing for European destinations.

Air travel, made on B-777/300ER planes in the largest city of Southern Germany, was inaugurated on March 28th 2010, and, until now, was offered for five days a week.

The enhancement in the frequency of the flights to Munich is due to the imminent 200th Oktoberfest, the famous beer festival that will take place from September 18th to October 3rd, 2010.

Munich is the second German destination reached by Singapore Airlines; to Frankfurt are already available two daily flights, one of which does an intermediate stop here and then goes on to New York.

Starting from tomorrow, with the increase of flights to Munich, the Asia’s leading carrier will reach the number of 21 connections per week.

Singapore Airlines to Offer Private Jet Passengers for Connecting Flights to Europe

Passengers coming from Australia will be offered the chance to fly on a private jet, whilst on their way to Europe. Singapore Airlines is the airline offering the private jets to passengers, allowing them to use the service for connecting flights to Europe.

Those travelling on the private jet service, will be able to go to 14 different destinations in Europe. Singapore Airlines are offering the long-haul passengers these connecting private jets that will be able to touch down in over 1,000 European airports.

The private jet service is similar to the same connection flights that British Airways provide. Earlier in the year British Airways announce the use of private jet services for their passengers, that are used for connecting flights to North American.

The good news is, the use of the private jet is at a fixed price, so regardless of the number of passengers who travel, the price is the same. As well as connecting flights, passengers are also awarded the privilege of having clearance at customs, baggage transferred for them, and a limousine service to provide travel to and from the airport.

First class passengers look set to snap up this opportunity, and increase Singapore Airlines’ popularity. First class passengers have already shown loyalty to Singapore Airlines. With the astounding first class suites provided on board their A380 aircrafts, and numerous perks and amenities, it is not hard to see why.
