SilkAir serves Penang
By Nicholas Yong
SINGAPORE Airlines' flights between Singapore and Penang will soon be operated by its regional wing.
From 1 Dec, SilkAir will take over SIA's daily morning flight to Penang. SilkAir currently flies to Penang twice a day.
By taking over the Singapore Airlines flight, SilkAir will serve Penang three times daily, with a morning frequency in addition to the current afternoon and evening frequencies.
Customers who have made advance bookings to fly the Singapore-Penang route on SQ will be re-accommodated on SilkAir flights.
In a joint statement on Monday, SIA and SilkAir said that the move would optimise the utilisation of SIA Group's resources and present a better match of capacity to demand.
'Since the launch of SilkAir's services on the Singapore-Penang route in June this year, we have received a very good response from our customers through healthy loads and positive feedback on our inflight service. We hope to count on their continued support,' said Mr Chin Yau Seng, SilkAir's Chief Executive.
