Singapore Airlines (SIA) will launch daily flights between Singapore and Beijing’s Daxing International Airport on 11 November 2024, subject to regulatory approvals. Located in the south of Beijing, the airport gives customers convenient access to the Beijing, Hebei, and Tianjin regions, where several world cultural heritage sites are located, via a network of highways, subways, and railways.
Mr Kong Yue, Vice President, Beijing Daxing International Airport, said: “Singapore Airlines is the first foreign airline to operate services from Beijing Daxing International Airport to Singapore. We believe the inception of Singapore Airlines at Beijing Daxing International Airport will bring about a renewed sense of energy and opportunities, fulfilling the travel demand between both countries as we jointly work together for more good things to come.”
The Airline will also increase its frequencies to Beijing Capital International Airport to 21 weekly services from 5 August 2024, up from 18 weekly services.
With the addition of Beijing Daxing, the SIA Group – which comprises SIA and its low-cost subsidiary Scoot – will serve 24 destinations in mainland China, reflecting its firm commitment to this important market.
SIA will operate its Boeing 787-10 aircraft, which features 36 Business Class seats and 301 Economy Class seats, on this new service.
Tickets for SIA’s Beijing Daxing services are progressively made available for sale through the various distribution channels from 24 June 2024.
