GoAir is launching direct flights to Singapore from the Indian cities of Bengaluru (four days a week) and Kolkata (three days a week).
GoAir flies to 25 domestic destinations and eight international destinations: Phuket, Malé (seasonal), Muscat, Abu Dhabi, Bangkok, Dubai, Kuwait and now Singapore.
Flight operations from Singapore will commence October 19.
Jeh Wadia, managing director, GoAir, said the introduction of flights to and from Singapore is a turning point in the history of the airline.
“Singapore carries the distinction of being an important leisure destination as well as an established business hub. It is in this regard that GoAir will work closely with the Singapore Tourism Board and all such like-minded organisations that can further the cause of tourism in India as well as Singapore.”
India is the third largest visitor source market for Singapore. In 2018, Singapore received more than one million visitors from India for the fourth time in a row. India is also the top source market for cruise travel.
