SIA adds to daily flights to Cape Town

It will add to the current four flights per week starting March 2018.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) will add flights to Cape Town, South Africa in order to meet "growing travel demand."

According to a press release, Cape Town will be served with a daily flight via Johannesburg, up from the current four flights per week, starting from 26 March 2018.

The additional flights will complement SIA’s current daily service to Johannesburg and operate as SQ478 (Singapore—Johannesburg--Cape Town) and SQ479 (Cape Town-- Johannesburg--Singapore).

SIA will operate flights to Cape Town and Johannesburg using its Airbus A350-900 aircraft. The aircraft seats 253 customers in three classes, with 42 in business class, 24 in premium economy class, and 187 in economy class.

Tickets will be made available for sale progressively through the various distribution channels.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
