Last month Singapore Airlines proudly marked four decades of connectivity between Brisbane Australia and Singapore. The airlines’ inaugural Brisbane flights took place in 1984 with the then cutting-edge Boeing 747-300, fondly named ‘Big-Top’.
While the global landscape has significantly changed since 1984, Singapore Airlines has consistently upheld its commitment to Queensland, even throughout the challenges posed by the pandemic, where Singapore Airlines exhibited unwavering resilience, ensuring operations to Brisbane continued where possible and facilitated crucial connections, repatriation and freight services.
With the reopening of borders, Singapore Airlines has observed a surge in demand, with four additional weekly services commencing later this year. This expansion translates to an impressive 2,600 annual services linking Brisbane to the world, potentially accommodating 787,800 passengers, the equivalent of filling Suncorp Stadium 15 times over.
This week, Cairns Airport also marked a significant milestone, welcoming the Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900 wide body passenger service to the region for the first time since the airline started operations in Tropical North Queensland.
The historic deployment of this aircraft to Cairns will inject thousands of additional seats into the market and provide significant growth opportunities for local exporters.
TEQ continues its strong partnership with Singapore Airlines, through a memorandum of understanding (MOU) which sees us collaborating on marketing activity to drive bookings on the airline to Queensland from key source markets. Campaign activity under the MOU is currently live in Singapore, India, the United Kingdom and Germany, and has recently concluded in Indonesia.
