SilkAir to fly S'pore-KL

Singapore Airlines (SIA), SilkAir and Malaysian Airlines will offer a total of 15 daily flights between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur come December 1.

SilkAir, SIA's sister carrier, has been included into the existing SIA-Malaysian Airlines codeshare arrangement on the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore route, said SIA today in a news release.

SilkAir will be flying the KL-Singapore leg for the first time, commencing with two daily flights from October 26, while SIA will operate five.

From December 1, SIA and SilkAir will operate four flights each, while Malaysian Airlines will fly the other seven.

Under the codeshare agreement, customers will generally have access to all flights operated by the three airlines, as interchangeable tickets are available for travel on most fare types apart from some issued on restricted fares.

Mr Chin Yau Seng, Chief Executive, SilkAir said, "SilkAir is pleased to be able to offer, together with Singapore Airlines, a wider choice of flights for customers travelling between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur."

"This is the first time we will have flown to Kuala Lumpur, and we are excited about the prospects for this new route," he added.
