To mark this momentous occasion, SIA is pleased to announce that from October 29, 2023 and subject to regulatory approvals, it will increase its Hyderabad-Singapore services from seven times a week to 12 times a week, resuming services daily Scoot between cities.
The new five-times-a-week morning services will provide more connectivity options for passengers traveling from Hyderabad to and beyond Singapore.

Daily night services will be operated by SIA Airbus A350s, with 303 seats – 40 in business class and 263 in economy class. As a result, Hyderabad will be fully served by SIA’s full-service product.
Sy Yen Chen, Managing Director of Singapore Airlines in India, said: “As we celebrate 20 years of service to the Hyderabad market, we are delighted to announce an increase in our weekly operations to the city. The strategic restructuring of our Hyderabad network demonstrates our commitment to continually evolve and meet the changing needs of our valued customers. This important milestone reaffirms our commitment to the local market, and we are excited to provide even greater connectivity and exceptional full-service travel experiences as we move into the future.
The increase in A350 operations on the Hyderabad-Singapore route also opens up a wider range of opportunities for SIA Cargo. The wider body of the aircraft will make it possible to lift large shipments of goods that need to be loaded onto skids. Additionally, the aircraft’s temperature control capabilities are essential for certain types of temperature-sensitive cargo.
This restructuring illustrates SIA Group’s ability to adapt to changing market conditions and offer enhanced travel options to its customers, in line with its mission to connect people to global destinations.
Starting October 29, 2023, SIA will operate 96 weekly flights to and from eight Indian cities, namely Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kochi, Kolkata and Mumbai, while Scoot will operate 44 weekly flights to to and from six Indian cities, namely Amritsar, Chennai, Coimbatore, Thiruvananthapuram, Tiruchirappalli and Visakhapatnam.
