Singapore Airlines to offer daily Munich-Manchester flights

Will increase flights from 5 times weekly to daily and upgrades Singapore-Germany flights to 21 per week.

From 1 September 2010, Singapore Airlines’ customers will be able to enjoy daily flights to Munich and Manchester. This will be an increase from the existing five-times-weekly Singapore-Munich-Manchester vv services, according to a Singapore Airlines report.

The Airline commenced flights to Munich, southern Germany’s largest city, using Boeing 777-300ER aircraft on 28 March 2010.

"The fact that we will be operating daily to Munich just five months after introducing the new destination is a testament to the popularity of the route. We are pleased that our products have been so well received, and we are confident that the additional flights will cater to the growing demand of our business and leisure customers travelling to and from both Munich and Manchester," said Mr. Goh Choon Phong, Singapore Airlines’ Executive Vice President Marketing and the Regions.

Customers travelling on the Singapore-Munich-Manchester vv service will experience the Airline’s latest product offerings, including a new First Class seat which converts into the largest full-flat bed in the sky, a 30-inch-wide Business Class seat, the widest in its class, and the unprecedented comfort and space offered by the all-new Economy Class seats.

In addition, customers can be entertained by more than 1000 on-demand options available on Singapore Airlines’ award-winning inflight entertainment system available across all three classes. First Class seats are fitted with 23-inch screens, Business Class seats feature 15.4-inch screens and Economy Class 10.6-inch screens.

Singapore Airlines also operates twice-daily flights to Frankfurt. The additional Munich services will increase frequency between Singapore and Germany to 21 flights per week.
