Singapore Airlines, Scoot to offer 420,000 cheap tickets, putting heat on Hong Kong’s Cathay
City state’s carrier to launch its largest promotional campaign yet next month, with discounts on business class and economy class tickets
Singapore Airlines and its budget arm Scoot will offer 420,000 discounted tickets as early as next month in its largest promotional campaign yet and one that is expected to put pressure on regional rivals such as Hong Kong flag carrier Cathay Pacific Airways.
Singapore Airlines announced on Wednesday it would offer discounts on more than 200,000 business class, premium economy class and economy class round-trip tickets from the city state to 78 global destinations as part of its “Time To Fly” promotion.
Scoot will offer 220,000 discounted one-way tickets to 57 destinations. They include economy class as well as ScootPlus, which offers additional legroom and wider seats with complimentary meals and in-flight Wi-fi connectivity.
Singapore Airlines said the discounts were valid for flights between January and September 2025, and for travel with Scoot from next month to October 2025.
The sale will run from October 25 to November 7 on both the company’s website and mobile applications, as well as through designated travel agents.
A three-day in-person fair in the city state will also feature exclusive giveaways, including a grand prize of three pairs of business class round-trip tickets from Singapore Airlines with hotel stays in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Istanbul.
