SIA Group flew 2.7 million passengers in April

But its cargo and mail carried fell to 68.8 million kilogrammes.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) and its low-cost subsidiary, Scoot, flew a combined 2.7 million passengers in April, an 85.5% year-over-year (YoY) rise from 1.5 million passengers last year.

In its bourse filing, the group shared that its passenger capacity grew 36.7% YoY to 12.34 billion kilometres from 9.02 billion kilometres, whilst its passenger load factor (PLF) increased by 15.6 points YoY to 88.3% from 72.7%.

The robust leisure demand during the Easter holiday, particularly in China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, contributed to the growth.

However, the Group's cargo and mail carried in April 2023 declined 11.2% YoY to 68.8 million kilograms from 77.5 million kilograms, whilst its cargo load factor fell 16 points YoY to 50.7% from 66.7%.

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.
