Tiger Airways Singapore significantly increased capacity year-on-year, including the introduction of new services to the Philippines (Cebu and Davao) and India (Bangalore), and is still in the process of building up demand on these routes.

Tiger Airways Australia operated at reduced capacity and on a limited schedule relative to November 2010, resulting in a decline in passenger numbers.
