Singapore Airlines to operate Hong Kong service with A380 aircraft

Singapore Airlines has reported that it will operate the Singapore-Hong Kong route using an Airbus A380 aircraft from July 9, 2009.

According to the airline, the daily A380 flights will replace an existing daily Boeing 777-300ER service to Hong Kong. The operation of the 471-seat A380 aircraft to Hong Kong represents an increase of 10% in seat capacity to the city.

Hong Kong will be the fifth international destination and second Asian city to which Singapore Airlines operates the Airbus A380 aircraft. Singapore Airlines currently operates five daily non-stop flights between Singapore and Hong Kong, along with daily non-stop services between Hong Kong and San Francisco.
