Tiger Airways increases Singapore-Kuala Lumpur flights
Tiger Airways announced that on 01-Dec-08 Tiger Airways is the first out of the blocks to offer the next low fare step by operating up to 5 flights a day between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.

 

This will result in more than 40,000 seats a month each way, or the equivalent to 480,000 extra seats a year on the route.

Rosalynn Tay, Managing Director of Tiger Airways Singapore, said “This is a huge milestone in Asian low fare aviation, and at Tiger Airways we’re very proud to be leading the way once again. Working at Tiger Airways is living the low fare dream. Where else in the world could I make almost 500,000 people a year so happy with so many low fares, at such great times. This huge increase in flights between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore means one thing for travellers – lots more Tiger Airways’ famous low fares.”


Rosalynn Tay said, “I would like to congratulate the forward thinking of the Singapore and Malaysian governments and aviation authorities in their progression of a liberalisation agenda that benefits both economies. By meeting this liberalisation milestone ahead of the ASEAN roadmap both countries are acknowledged around the world in a job well done. The customer is the big winner here. ”
