Singapore Airlines' passenger load factor slides 3.9ppt

Even SilkAir made disappointing results.

According to OCBC, Singapore Airlines continues to experience tepid demand for its premium services despite the continuation of its promotional fare strategy.

The firm also added that while the drop-off from the seasonal year-end peak was expected, the rate of its PLF decline from Dec was disappointing with capacity growth outstripping passenger demand.

"The Group’s parent airline saw PLF decline 3.9ppt to 78.3% for Jan (+1.3ppt from a year ago) while SilkAir’s PLF slide was more pronounced at 9.6ppt to 67.5% (-8.7ppt from a year ago)," OCBC said.

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.
