Singapore Airlines adds London Gatwick flights
Singapore Airlines is adding a second London gateway direct to Southeast Asia.
The flag carrier announced five-times weekly Singapore flights from London Gatwick starting next summer.
The route will commence from LGW on 22 June 2024, with a promotional lead-in return fare of £645pp now on sale at singaporeair.com.
The new service will complement the airline’s four daily flights from London Heathrow and five-times weekly flights from Manchester.
It increases to 38 direct flights a week from the UK to Singapore which is more than any other carrier.
Singapore Airlines offers the fastest connecting service from the UK to Sydney, Australia in 21 hours 40 minutes.
Departing from London Gatwick’s North Terminal, the new Singapore flights take off at 10:15am and arrive in Singapore at 6:20am the next day.
The 13-hour flight will be operated with Airbus A350-900 jets with 253 seats in three cabin classes, and complimentary in-flight Wi-Fi as a KrisFlyer member.
Mohamed Rafi Mar, Singapore Airlines General Manager UK & Ireland, said: “We are excited to announce London Gatwick as our third UK gateway, offering customers more choice to Southeast Asia and beyond.”
Singapore Airlines flight SQ309 will operate on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
