That would be a big surprise as the SQ's sixth WhaleJet is scheduled for delivery about January 2009. Do you have a source?

It has just been confirmed and reconfirmed to me that Singapore Airlines will operate six Airbus A380-800s by 31 July 2008

9V-SKA and 9V-SKB have already joined the fleet
9V-SKC* will join in February 2008
9V-SKD* will join in April 2008
9V-SKE* will join in June 2008
9V-SKF* will join in July 2008

Singapore Airlines will operate, subject to regulatory and government approval, the Airbus A380-800 to Beijing in time for the Olympic Games.

Once 9V-SKC has joined, SQ317/SQ322 will be operated daily by the Airbus A380-800.

With these deliveries, more passengers, and earlier than expected I must say with some surprise, will experience Travel In A New Light combined with the Romance of Travel.

Does anyone know when will the A380 fly to HKG?

Singapore_Air, is it confirmed to be 317/322? I have a trip to London in late-Feb and will switch to 322 immediately if so. All flights are still showing as 744.

Thanks.

MileHighJ, sorry, I forgot to reply.

Umm... you could have a shot at it couldn't you? I don't have the exact dates, just what I have posted above. But if I were you and my travel date was after 14 Feb, I would!
