Scoot Airlines revs up in April

SINGAPORE AIRLINES   BUDGET AIRLINES

Singapore - Scoot Airlines, Singapore Airline's (SIA) new low-cost long-haul airline, is expected to start operating next April with one Boeing 777-200 aircraft, according to local reports.

The airline will later expand to four planes within the first three months, The Straits Times reported.

In the longer term, Scoot Airlines will aim to operate 14 of the twin-aisle Boeing aircraft by mid 2016.

This is part of SIA's strategy to fit each of its B-777 with roughly 400 seats, in a bid to establish itself as a premium carrier among increasing competition with rival carriers.
