SIA's war with Chinese carriers heats up

The group's rivals are expanding their capacity aggressively.

There are no clear skies ahead for Singapore Airlines as its rivalry with Chinese carriers is expected to intensify.

According to OCBC Investment Research analyst Eugene Chua, the Chinese carriers are expanding capacity aggressively on the North-Asia and Transpacific routes and from the Gulf carriers’ persistent pressures on the Southwest Pacific routes.

However, the analyst noted that SIA will be able to gain some edge as its passenger yield decline slows down over the next two years.

The improvement in passenger yields will be on the back of seemingly improving global economic outlook that drives demand in passenger traffic, and the support from the premium economy.

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.
