      There was also SQ225 (SIN-PER) and will have SQ285 (SIN-AKL) operating today (02MAR20). Both are cargo only flights.

      • Based on the latest schedule for April 2020, seems like all A333, A380, 772, 772ER and 773 are grounded.

        Equipment being used are A359, 77W, 78X + 738 (for MI Chongqing flights)

          A333 are rostered on the SIN-KUL n HCM-SIN route after mid April.
          A380 was rostered on SQ638/637 as well.

          Seem like all those long haul flight are operated as turnaround by the same crews as SQ increase the layover time.

            773 wise 9V-SYH and 9V-SYL are still active. 9V-SYH operated SQ265 to BNE while 9V-SYL operated SQ8050/8051 to SGN and will be operating SQ638 to NRT today (02APR).

              A long time since BNE has seen a 773! Could the rotation of aircraft be linked to keeping a wide variety of crew in play given they work only one aircraft type, or is 773 and 77W the same pool?

              • Quite some cargo flights in the air: SQ26 on its way to FRA and SQ12 to NRT. I really wonder if the continue to the US.

                Passenger flight SQ325 left FRA after approx. 24 hours on the ground.

                  773/772/77W come under a common rating for the pilots.

                      My apologies, I must have only looked at the flights in the coming week instead of the later half of April. And excluded the cargo only flights that SQ is still operating

                      • SQ37 n SQ38 were served by 9V-SMx rather than the usual 9V-SGx

                        • There are currently 2 A350's on their way from Copenhagen to Singapore, SQ351 that departed a few hours early and SQ353 (?), does anyone know anything about these flights?

                            9V-SMI flown to CPH on 2nd April while 9V-SMW flown to CPH on 1st April. Both are returning today. Not sure whether it is crew issue? Or maybe plane issue ?

                            Wonder how they plan the pilots duties for these cargo only flight to Europe n australia?

                              I'm not sure but maybe SQ353 are going to China for more.

                                The link doesn't seem to work unless you have Facebook, would you mind just briefly sharing what it's about? Thanks so much!
