Emirates’ Singapore-Melbourne Route Addresses Pent-Up Demand for Air Travel
The resumption of Emirates’ Singapore-Melbourne route will help serve the pent-up demand for air travel between the two cities. This will create the capacity to transport up to 5,000 passengers a week between the two points.
Rashid Al Ardha, Emirates’ Country Manager for Singapore & Brunei, said: “The return of our direct service between Singapore and Melbourne further establishes our commitment to supporting the local travel and tourism recovery in both markets. With travel restrictions easing globally, we are progressively restoring our operations to pre-pandemic levels, as we expect customer demand to remain strong in 2023.”
