Singapore Airlines’ new route to Sydney via Jakarta

Demand for greater connectivity has encouraged Singapore Airlines to launch a new route to Sydney via Jakarta. The new service will fulfill the dual purpose of boosting the Singapore-Jakarta flight frequency as well as increasing the airline’s operations to both Indonesia and Australia.  Please note: The start date for this service has been delayed due to on-going runway maintenance in Jakarta.

Flights on this new route are expected to take off three times weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays beginning 23rd November 2016, subject to regulatory approvals. The service will utilise aircraft from Singapore Airlines’ Boeing 777-212(ER) fleet.

Already the busiest route in the Singapore Airlines network, Singapore – Jakarta will grow further with the addition of eight new weekly flights between the two cities. On Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays the additional flights will depart Singapore at 13:50 (1.50pm) and arrive in Jakarta at 14:35 (2.35pm), returning from Jakarta at 15:35 (3.35pm) for arrival in Singapore at 18:10 (6.10pm).

On Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, the extra flights will leave Singapore at 20:15 (8.15pm) and arrive in Jakarta at 21:00 (9pm), returning from Jakarta at 22:25 (10.25pm) and landing in Singapore at 01:10 (1.10am) the next day.
(All times stated are local, Jakarta time is one hour behind Singapore.).

These additional flights represent a significant increase in flights to Jakarta with the current sixty-three weekly round-trip services rising to seventy-one. With the addition of the three new flights continuing on to Sydney, the number will rise to seventy-four. Sydney services will increase from the current thirty-one to a weekly total of thirty-four flights.

Bookings for the new services will become available in the near future from the Singapore Airlines website.
