Singapore (SIN) route changes

Darwin to Singapore stops in October and becomes seasonal

Qantas has cancelled its Darwin to Singapore service from 25 October 2026, the start of the northern winter schedule. The route is filed to come back as a seasonal service from 12 June to 21 August 2027, three times a week on a 737-800.

Singapore to Da Nang goes to three a day

Weekly seats rise 50 per cent, from 2,156 to 3,234

Singapore Airlines adds a third daily flight to Da Nang from 25 October 2026, an afternoon departure returning the same evening. All three services are 737-8 MAX, so the extra flight lifts weekly seats by half in every cabin. The pattern runs to 27 March 2027.

Singapore to Ho Chi Minh City goes to four a day

Weekly seats fall 3 per cent, from 6,489 to 6,286

Singapore Airlines adds a fourth daily flight to Ho Chi Minh City from 25 October 2026, a late-evening 737-8 MAX departure returning before dawn. One of the three existing services drops from a 787-10 to a 737-8 MAX on the same date, so the extra frequency comes with fewer seats overall and 14 per cent less business class. The four-a-day pattern runs to 27 March 2027.

Singapore to Auckland goes year-round on the A380

Singapore Airlines will fly the A380 on its daily Singapore to Auckland service from 28 March 2027, replacing the 777-300ER on SQ285 and SQ286. The filing extends the A380 on the route to year-round. SQ285 leaves Singapore at 22:50 and reaches Auckland at 12:20 the next day; the return leaves Auckland at 14:10 and lands in Singapore at 21:00.
