SINGAPORE AIRLINES TO OPERATE COMMEMORATIVE A380 SERVICES TO OSAKA IN AUGUST

 Singapore Airlines’ customers travelling to Osaka this August are in for a special 

treat. The Airline will be celebrating 40 years of direct services between Singapore 
and Osaka by operating daily Airbus A380 flights from 10 to 15 August 2012. The 
special daily A380 service, which replaces an existing daily Airbus A330 service, 
will be the first A380 commercial flight to Kansai International Airport. 


Singapore Airlines was the first airline in the world to operate the superjumbo in 
October 2007. Since its inaugural flight to Sydney, the Singapore Airlines A380 
has proven exceptionally popular, having flown more than 7 million customers, 
with strong loads on all routes it serves. The aircraft is currently operated to ten 
destinations in Asia, Australia, Europe and North America. Currently, Singapore 
Airlines has 17 A380s in service and a further two on firm order. 
”We are grateful for the continued support of our customers and service partners 
over the last 40 years of operations between Singapore and Osaka. The special 
A380 services symbolise our appreciation, and we are delighted to offer our 
customers the opportunity to experience some of our latest products on board the 
superjumbo,” said Regional Vice President North Asia, Mr Lim Wee Kok. 
The special A380 service is the latest in a series of activities to commemorate the 
40th anniversary milestone. Promotional return fares from Osaka to Singapore as 
well as other destinations are also on offer. Customers can visit the special
