- Greater Bay Airlines says it will suspend regular flights to Singapore from June 1 for commercial reasons and after assessing latest market conditions
- Carrier announced in February it would launch new route to city state from April 26, with one flight scheduled each day
The carrier said on Thursday it would suspend the service from June 1 for commercial reasons and after assessing recent market conditions.
“To minimise the possible impact to passengers, we will directly contact our passengers to make rebooking, re-routing or refund arrangements, and all the associated fees will be waived,” it said.
The airline said affected fliers would be compensated with a free return ticket.
It also apologised to those affected, adding: “We will learn from the experience and strive to explore new potential destinations, enhance the service of existing routes and collaborate with travel agencies on charter business.”
