Scoot doubles down on Airbus A320neos with 11-jet order for 2028

The added fleet will feature between 186 and 236 seats in a single-class configuration.

Singapore Airlines’ (SIA) low-cost subsidiary Scoot has ordered 11 additional Airbus A320neo family aircraft, with deliveries scheduled to begin from 2028.

In a statement, the carrier said it had firmed up orders for five aircraft and exercised options to purchase six more under its 2014 agreement with Airbus.

Powered by Pratt & Whitney PW1100G-JM engines, the latest order will raise Scoot’s A320neo family orderbook to 20 aircraft.

The new aircraft will feature 186 seats on the A320neo and 236 seats on the A321neo, all in a single-class configuration.

Scoot said the move would increase route deployment flexibility across locations within a five- to six-hour radius and support new services feeding into the wider SIA Group network.

By June, the airline expects to serve 85 destinations, accounting for around half of the routes connected through Changi Airport. Of these, 37 are operated exclusively by the carrier.

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.
