“Tiger Airways is proud to fly to more destinations in Thailand from Singapore than any other low cost carrier. The Thai aviation policy of Open Skies has made this possible and it has resulted in a big boost to business and tourism between Singapore and Thailand. The growing demand has encouraged us to add even more flights from August to these hot destinations,” said Tiger Airways CEO, Tony Davis.
The additional flights to Thailand will fly more than 100,000 passengers between the two countries. This closely follows the recent increase of Tiger Airways flights between Singapore and Phuket, which began 1July 2006.
