Singapore Airlines has offered compensation to passengers injured from the SQ321 incident.

“This will be part of the final compensation that these passengers will receive,” SIA wrote.

Besides offering compensation, SIA will refund the airfare for all passengers of SQ321 on 20 May, including those not injured.

“All passengers will also receive delay compensation in accordance with the relevant European Union or United Kingdom regulations,” SIA wrote.

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.
