Changi Airport houses Singapore's first direct flight carrier to Mongolia

Flights are available twice weekly.

Singapore Changi Airport yesterday welcomed the arrival of MIAT Mongolian Airlines, Mongolia’s national carrier, which will directly connect Singapore to Mongolia for the first time. 

The Mongolian national carrier will operate a twice-weekly service between Ulaanbaatar and Singapore, via Beijing. The route will utilise a 174-seat Boeing 737-800 aircraft in a two-class configuration.

A delegation led by Mongolian Member of Parliament and Minister of Road and Transportation Gansukh Amarjargal and MIAT Mongolian CEO Gungaa Jargalsaikhan arrived on the inaugural flight that arrived at Changi Airport at 5:00 pm yesterday.

MIAT Mongolian Airlines is the fourth new carrier for Changi Airport this year, following Uzbekistan Airways and Spring Airways that launched flights in April and VietJet in May, while Ulaanbaatar becomes the third new city link this year, following Tashkent and Lanzhou.
