Singapore Airlines’ passenger capacity up 9.3% in November

Passenger traffic also grew by 8.3%.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) Group saw 9.3% increase in passenger capacity in November 2024 compared to the previous year.

Passenger traffic grew by 8.3%, with the group’s passenger load factor (PLF) at 87.0%, down 0.8 percentage points year-on-year.

SIA’s PLF stood at 86.8%, whilst Scoot’s reached 87.4%. The two carriers transported 3.3 million passengers, a 7.5% increase from November 2023.

Cargo loads grew 10.3%, driven by higher freighter charters and increased aircraft utilisation. Cargo capacity rose 12.8%, though the cargo load factor fell 1.3 percentage points to 56.6%.

In November, SIA launched daily services to Beijing’s Daxing International Airport, increasing its China network to two points in the capital and 23 destinations in mainland China.

By the end of November, the group’s passenger network spanned 128 destinations in 36 countries. SIA served 79 destinations, Scoot served 71, and the cargo network covered 132 destinations in 37 countries.

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.
