Singapore expands bilateral air services deal with Greece

Deal enables both countries to operate unlimited cargo flights and unlimited hubbing rights between countries.

Singapore and Greece agreed to expand the bilateral Air Services Agreement (ASA) between both countries, according to a Ministry of Transport report.

Under the expanded agreement, carriers from Singapore and Greece are allowed to operate unlimited cargo flights between and beyond the two countries, as well as unlimited “hubbing” rights for cargo operations for carriers of both countries.

The expanded agreement further allows carriers from both countries to operate unlimited passenger services between the two countries, and up to 14 weekly passenger services beyond them to any city worldwide.

This latest liberal ASA with a European Union (EU) Member State promotes people-to-people ties, boost tourism and enhance bilateral economic relations not just between Greece and Singapore, but also between the Asia-Pacific region and the EU.

At present, Singapore Airlines operates twice weekly passenger services between Singapore and the capital city of Greece, Athens.

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.
