Tiger Airways unveils double daily flights to Jakarta
Rights secured for second daily flight with improved schedule, which will start on 11 Jan 2011.
Tiger Airways has confirmed that it will commence a second daily flight on its popular Jakarta-Singapore route, with flights beginning from 11 January 2011, according to a Tiger Airways report.
Tiger Airways announced in July that it won additional rights to operate a second daily service to Jakarta in the distribution of limited traffic rights by Singapore’s Air Traffic Rights Committee (ATRC). This decision was appealed by a competitor airline but the original decision to award the rights to Tiger Airways has now been upheld.
Rosalynn Tay, Managing Director of Tiger Airways Singapore, said “We are looking forward to serving twice the number of passengers on our popular Jakarta-Singapore route. With twice the number of flights, we will be even better placed to bring down fares for tourists and business travellers flying between these two important ASEAN capitals.”
The additional flights are now on sale from as low as S$20 plus taxes, for travel between 11 January and 30 September 2011.
