Prepping for its first long haul flights to Europe from next month, Scoot is eyeing other intercontinental routes with Hawaii reportedly on the radar.
Singapore’s Straits Times newspaper reports Scoot is seeking approval to fly to Honolulu.
It would depart Singapore with a stop in Osaka, Japan en route.
Japan is one of Hawaii’s largest markets.
Lee Lik Hsin, chief executive of parent company Budget Aviation Holdings remained tight lipped but said other long haul routes aside from Europe are being mulled.
He said while fuel prices remain relatively low, the carrier is looking to add longer routes.
"If fuel prices go up, and we can, we try to charge higher fares, in order to still make the (long-haul) route viable," he said.
Lee was speaking to the media as he took delivery of its latest Dreamliner jet from the Boeing plant in Seattle.
This latest plane features crew bunks, a requirement due to the flight duration from Singapore to Europe.
Scott only operates Dreamliners with a fleet size of 12.
