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.
