Tiger Airways Singapore carried 331,000 passengers in April

That’s a 4% increase compared to April 2011, but it’s a different story if you bring the airline’s performance in Australia into the picture.

For the month of April 2012, Tiger Airways Singapore carried 331,000 passengers compared to 318,000 in the same period in 2011. Tiger Airways Singapore increased capacity by 9% in April 2012 compared to April of last year, leading to a four percentage point decrease in its load factor to 83%.

Meanwhile Tiger Airways Australia operated at reduced capacity and on a limited schedule in April 2012, resulting in a 56% decline in the number of passengers.

In total, Tiger Airways carried 466,000 passengers in April 2012. The combined number for Singapore and Australia represented a 25% drop compared to the number of passengers in the same period in 2011.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
