Holiday seekers will soon have a new flight option from Singapore to London via the second best airline in the world, with Singapore Airlines starting new non-stop flights from Changi Airport to London Gatwick come June 2024. These flights will be operating five times a week with Airbus A350-900 planes, and Singapore Airlines will be the one and only carrier for this particular route.
Currently, there are 49 flights between Singapore’s Changi Airport and London’s Heathrow Airport happening every week. The new flights to Gatwick airport will give travellers a nice alternative, should they be unable to find ideal flight timings or prices for the Heathrow route.
Gatwick Airport is located further down the south of England compared to Heathrow, but it is worth noting that the travel time from each airport to central London is about the same via train, at around one hour. Hence, whichever route you take should not matter too much if you're looking to explore the heart of London and its iconic landmarks.
Bookings for Singapore Airlines’ flights from Singapore to Gatwick and vice versa are not yet open, but we can probably expect an announcement in due time. Check back on this article for more information in the next couple of months – we’ll be updating it once the full details are made available.
For now, check out the confirmed list of public holidays in Singapore for 2024, of which there will be five long weekends for you to strategically plan your getaways for.
