        • That's great news, 3 brand new A350s arriving on the same day.

          • 9V-SHV landed at Changi at 12.08pm, bringing the SQ A350 fleet to 55.

            9V-SJB, a Long Haul version, will be the next SQ A350 to be delivered. June looks like a possible delivery month.

              Almost mind blowing 3x delivery on a same day while many other airlines are suspending, delaying or cancelling delivery of new aircraft.

              With these 3x new delivery, I think there are 12 more A350 delivery to go, making total of 67.

              It seems like SQ Group has accelerated their deliveries. Scoot also took delivery of A320neo 9V-TNE (after a long period of delivery drought) and will soon take delivery of its first A321neo. I would guess those two B787-8 9V-OFL/OFM are also due for delivery soon, leaving 1 more B787-8 and 2 B787-9.

              B737MAX wise, there are 8 waiting for delivery now.

                Ordinarily yes. Right now, this looks like a unfortunate, ill-timed and total waste of cash (despite SIA's efforts to defer deliveries).

                  These were ordered before the covid crisis and these planes were made before SIA negotiated successfully to defer some deliveries. But its ok as of now all its existing A350s are flying except for 2 regionals which are in maintenance. And SIA needs these planes soon by 3rd quarter when more passenger fights are on again.

                          SQ have completed a sale and leaseback for 11 of its planes

                          • Do all of SQ's A350-900 have the MTOW of 280T? Are any of the A350 regionals in the 250T MTOW?

                              • LH vs LH+

                                What is the significance of the 5t difference between the LH and LH+ variants? how much more range or anything else would one have over the other?
