Singapore Airlines to link Abu Dhabi and Tokyo

Starting from 31st October 2010, Singapore Airlines will connect Abu Dhabi International Airport via Singapore with Haneda International Airport, flying there twice a day from Singapore. The new route will complement the airline’s already existing two daily flights to Narita International Airport, the second largest airport in Tokyo.

Singapore Airlines operates on a daily basis a state-of the-art A330-300 aircraft departing from Abu Dhabi at 1:15 am, local time, arriving to Singapore at 12:30 pm to depart to Haneda International Airport in Japan at 15:40, within the convenience of 3 hours, and arriving into Haneda at 23:05, local time. The aircraft will offer both business and economy class services.

Singapore Airline’s frequency increase from two flights to four flights daily to Tokyo came as a response to the growing demand that the travel market is witnessing for more flights to and from Eastern Asia. Haneda International Airport boasts better domestic connections in Japan, and is situated in Tokyo’s city centre.

Adding to this, Singapore Airlines will increase its flight frequencies to certain destinations. This will include daily non-stop flights to Los Angeles, Perth, Auckland and Christchurch. Singapore Airlines will add three new weekly flights to Osaka City in Japan, which will all be connected to Abu Dhabi, offering more destination choices for passengers transiting in Abu Dhabi International Airport.

Singapore Airlines started its operations from Abu Dhabi International Airport in March 2006, and it connects the emirate of Abu Dhabi with a list of leading international destinations such as Kuwait, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Bali, and Bangkok.
