Singapore Airlines, along with Singapore Tourism Board, is offering a special family promotion on summer travel to Singapore. The move has come in view of the approaching summer holidays and the resumption of international travel from India. As per the promotion, families booking their Singapore Airlines tickets between now and May 31 2022, for travel anytime till June 30, 2022, could enjoy a 50 per cent discount on airfares for children aged 12 and below. 

Further, families could enjoy more than 100 attractions across Singapore at half the price if they were to book tickets using Singapore Airlines’ travel platform Pelago. Among these are attractions such as the Singapore Zoo, Night Safari, Gardens by the Bay, Universal Studios, S.E.A. Aquarium and iFly Singapore. 

Sy Yen Chen, General Manager India for Singapore Airlines, said, “With international travel having resumed from India, it is once again possible for families to plan a summer vacation together, and what better destination than Singapore? The Garden City has always been among the preferred international family-friendly destinations for the India market, simply because it offers something for all age groups. We are seeing strong demand for travel to Singapore, and our special children’s discount on airfares is our way of welcoming our youngest customers back on board for a fun-filled holiday.” 

Notably, Singapore Airlines currently operates 66 flights a week from 8 cities in India and is planning to progressively increase its frequency to pre-COVID levels in the coming months. GB Srithar, Regional Director, India, Middle East and South Asia, for Singapore Tourism Board said, “Singapore is a top-of-mind family destination among Indian travellers. We are happy to welcome them back to Singapore during the peak summer travel season to enjoy their family times. Together with our tourism partners, we have curated a variety of family experiences at half price for children under 12 years. After a hiatus of two years, we are excited to invite Indian travellers to a reimagined Singapore with new and familiar favourite experiences with top notch hygiene and safety standards.”
