Taking flight: SilkAir's route network now spans 41 destinations

Thanks to its newest thrice-weekly flights to Hanoi, Vietnam.

According to a release, SilkAir, the regional wing of Singapore Airlines, launched its first flight to the the city of Hanoi, capital of Vietnam. With this launch, SilkAir’s route network now spans 41 destinations in 12 countries.

This new service will complement Singapore Airlines’ current daily flights to Hanoi.

Together, SilkAir and Singapore Airlines will offer a total of 10 round-trip services a week.

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.
