Getting
here
Singapore’s
Changi International Airport is
a premier
international air hub. A liberal aviation policy, which entails an
exchange of
traffic rights with other countries, enables airlines to expand
connectivity
between Singapore
and the rest of the world. This has led to Singapore
being a crucial point on air traffic routes across the world:
There are 81 international airlines operating scheduled services
through Singapore
to
185 cities in 58 countries worldwide.
The national carrier, Singapore Airlines, together with its code-share
partners, flies to 90 cities in 40 countries.
Every week, more than 4,000 scheduled flights provide quick and
convenient
connections from Singapore
to major destinations worldwide.
