Singapore Airlines — News, Routes & Travel Tips

Singapore Airlines has one of the best service reputations in the airline industry, and its decisions affect travellers globally.

On this tag page you'll find the latest SIA updates: new routes, fleet moves, fare sales, lounge news, partnership deals and policy changes.

We focus on news that matters to flyers — delays and cancellations that change plans, major route launches that open new connections to Africa and practical tips to save money or upgrade smoothly.

Fleet updates matter: long haul aircraft swaps, new A350 deliveries, or seat refurbishments can change comfort on multi-hour flights.

We also track codeshares and airline partnerships because they affect baggage rules and where you can earn or redeem miles.

If you travel between Africa and Asia, watch for seasonal flights and one-off charters — those often offer the best direct connections.

For travellers worried about refunds or rebooking, we list the current policy changes and the most likely routes to get faster help.

Looking for lounge access info? We explain which tickets and elite tiers get into SilverKris Lounges, plus partner lounges in stopover cities.

Business travellers: we cover schedule reliability trends, Wi-Fi availability and how cabin changes affect working on board.

Leisure travellers: we highlight family policies, baggage allowances, and the best ways to secure a preferred seat before check-in.

Safety and sustainability are growing concerns — expect stories on fuel efficiency measures, carbon offset programs and recycling initiatives inside the cabins.

We add context so you can act: if SIA announces route suspensions, we show alternatives, likely timelines and simple steps to claim refunds.

Our posts mix breaking updates, clear explainers and real traveller tips so you spend less time decoding jargon and more time planning.

Bookmark this tag if you fly SIA often or if you're tracking route openings between Africa and Asia.

Travel plans change; this tag helps you stay prepared, know your options and move faster through airline red tape.

What to watch for
