SIA, Scoot get 5-Star COVID-19 Airline Safety rating

Skytrax evaluated over 190 of the airlines’ safety and hygiene protocols during its audit.

Flag carrier, Singapore Airlines, and budget carrier, Scoot, both operated by the Singapore Airlines Group, were given the highest rating in Skytrax COVID-19 Airline Safety Audit.

The five-star rating was based on Skytrax’ evaluation of over 190 safety and hygiene protocols implemented by the airlines, including cleanliness at the airport and onboard flights, social distancing measures, usage of face masks and sanitisers, and other hygiene improvement systems.

“Both of the airlines have implemented the most comprehensive COVID-19 safety programme to ensure the well-being of their customers and staff at every point of the journey. It is the very detailed attention to the consistency of this that is a key factor to Scoot and Singapore Airlines achieving this highest five-star COVID-19 Airline Safety Rating,” said Skytrax CEO Edward Plaisted.

Scoot is the first low-cost carrier in the world to get this rating.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
