Finnair to Singapore

Singapore has become Finnair’s tenth destination in Asia.  It is Changi’s first new European route since the launch of Lufthansa’s Singapore – Munich service in June 2008.  With daily flights the airline will operates an Airbus A340-300 aircraft in a two-class configuration using Terminal 1 at Changi Airport.  Flight time is around 11hrs 30mins. 

The airline claims that flights are the fastest connection between northern Europe and Singapore.

"Finnair's Asian strategy has worked extremely well," says Finnair CEO Mika Vehviläinen. "The Singapore route will strongly support our core strategy as well as serving our main target group of customers travelling between Asia and Europe on business."

The route offers excellent onward connections from both Helsinki and Singapore.  For Asian customers it opens up connections to the 50-strong European destination network served by Finnair.  Customers travelling onwards through Singapore can connect with flights offered as part of Finnair's oneworld partner network to Australia and Singapore's neighbours, Malaysia and Indonesia. www.finnair.com
