Also Medan, which was operated by Singapore Airlines.Yangon is now operated by Silkair.

9v-spk,
SQ flew to Schonefeld, not Tegel. I can confirm this since I was on SQ 346 SIN-SXF flight in Summer 1995. It was a twice weekly flight via Zurich.

30 SIA fan: GuyBetsy1, I thought SQ still flies to Surabaya. SQ only reduced capacity and not dropped the route altogether, din't it? Also, the flight to YYZ was
31 Docpepz: WHy does AC not complain about SQ flying to YVR via Seoul then? Does Air Canada fly the Seoul-YVR route? I was 9 when I took the SQ flight from YYZ-SI
32 Sin777er: Then why does AC not care about SQ doing SIN-SEOUL-YVR? SQ only flies 3-4X times a week there?
33 SQFFP: I will be blessed if SQ starts flying again Singapore - Toronto sector.... preferably with 1 stop at London Heathrow.
