SIA's passenger carriage down in May on back of weak long-haul traffic

America and Europe routes were the main drag.

Singapore Airlines reported that its systemwide passenger carriage slipped 4.2% year-on-year in May, on back of continued weakness in its long-haul routes.

SIA experienced weak passenger demand on Americas and Europe routes, while demand improved for East Asian routes.

Its subsidiaries SilkAir and Scoot recorded passenger carriage growth, while loss-making Tigerair experienced lower passenger carriage due to a decrease in capacity.

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.
