Singapore Airlines has 79% of fleet ready
Singapore Airlines has 79% of its fleet and the vast majority of pilots and cabin crew active so that it can quickly capitalise on any increase in demand, the airline's CE said Friday. "We have 92% of pilots and 86% of cabin crew now back with us," he told analysts and media. "At the level we are operating now, which is 37% of pre-Covid capacity, going up to 43% in December, we are quite comfortable with this return rate." The airline said on Thursday market conditions were improving after it reported a narrower Q2 loss due to cost-cutting efforts, record cargo revenue and an improvement in passenger numbers from a low base. Singapore has recently opened vaccinated travel lanes without quarantine with more than a dozen countries including Britain, the United States, Germany, Australia and South Korea.<br/>
