About Singapore Airlines

Singapore Airlines (IATA: SQ) is consistently ranked among the world's best airlines, having won Skytrax's World's Best Airline award more times than any other carrier. Founded in 1947 and based at Singapore Changi Airport — itself the world's most awarded airport — Singapore Airlines operates 160+ aircraft to 130+ destinations in 40+ countries from its hub at SIN, spanning six continents.

Singapore Airlines is the pioneering airline for many industry firsts: the first to fly the A380, the first to offer Suites (fully enclosed private cabins), and the first to operate the world's longest commercial flight (SIN–JFK non-stop on the A350ULR). SQ's KrisWorld entertainment system, "Book the Cook" meal pre-ordering service, and award-winning in-flight service set global benchmarks. FareOptic compares SQ fares across all routes to find your best deal.
