Interestingly the routing is:
- SIN-CPH-FCO
- FCO-CPH-SIN
SQ continues to offer a STAR Alliance connection for SIN-FCO on SQ/LH via FRA.

Loads seem good. Do you see them reopening some more bases in Spain i.e. BCN? Do you see Norwegian with a maximum fleet in the near future or will they "grow" soon?
Nami wrote:A somewhat interesting story in the media today - Finnair would have wanted to fly long-haul from unnamed European city/cities next winter season to get some cash flow going and employ around 400 flight crew who have been laid off during the pandemic. In order to make these flights viable it would have required some temporary flexibility in the existing collective agreements. Everything was agreed upon with the pilots but the board of the Transport Workers' Union (AKT) representing the cabin crew members disagreed with some details and rejected the motion. This despite the fact that the cabin crew division itself was in favor of accepting.
However AY still has the option of leasing crew from elsewhere.

davidjohnson6 wrote:Convenience, saving time. It is a 2h30 drive versus at most 1h15 flight at the second destination, and at airports of these sizes there is not a lot of hassle getting through security, if any at all at the small destinations. They probably also transport some more time critical goods and/or mail as well. I flew PSO routes like these in Sweden, where a 1h20 total travel time replaced a 4h drive. People showed up often 10-15 minutes before departure time, a quick last minute change on the loadsheet and off we went.Why is air service used to connect these villages when roads exist, particularly in summer ?
Do these air routes have any kind of future or are they on borrowed time ?
