SIA extends flight cuts to May; Jetstar Asia to fly to 3 cities
The vast majority of SIA planes will stay grounded next month as it extends the cancellation of its flights - slashed by about 96% in late March - in response to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. This marks a 1-month extension to the wide-ranging flight cuts that were announced late last month, amid a plunge in demand for air travel and sweeping border closures to international flights. SIA said Monday that it will continue to fly to just 15 cities, such as Bangkok, Los Angeles and Frankfurt. It also slightly increased the frequency of flights on a few routes. Most notably, there will be 11 more flights next month to Bangkok. There were only 3 flights to the Thai city this month due to an ongoing ban against international passenger flights from landing there. The ban is expected to last till the end of this month. <br/>
