Singapore Airlines renews, expands and innovates


Singapore Airlines (SIA) Cargo has been re-certified under Iata’s CEIV Pharma programme since January 2020. Since 2017, when SIA was the first airline in Asia Pacific to be awarded the pharmaceutical product handling accreditation, it has been improving its pharma handling capabilities and offerings. This includes the launch of "Thrucool" in September 2018, the expansion of its quality corridor network, now to Osaka, Stockholm and Copenhagen, and the signing of master lease agreements with temperature-controlled container vendors.

 

To cope with the coronavirus challenges, SIA's LCC subsidiary Scoot, which had suspended commercial flights to China until 25 April, is considering to operate cargo-only passenger flights with B787 to Guangzhou and Nanking over the coming weeks as demand outstrips supply. (ah)
