Jet Airways will commence daily non-stop services from Pune to Singapore starting 1st December, 2018. The new service – which will make Jet Airways the first airline to connect Pune directly with Singapore – is being introduced in response to a burgeoning growth for both leisure and corporate travel. Pune has recorded the highest number of arrivals into Singapore from a non-linked Indian city and this new service will fulfil this demand.
Raj Sivakumar, Senior Vice-President – Worldwide Sales & Distribution, Jet Airways, said, “Jet Airways will be the first Indian airline to provide direct connectivity between Pune and Singapore. Singapore has seen over 36,000 visitor arrivals from Pune in 2017, which is the highest for an Indian city without a direct flight. The launch of this new non-stop, daily service will benefit leisure travellers, as Singapore is one of the most popular destinations for tourists from Pune. It will also attract business travellers mainly from the IT, Banking and Finance sectors as it provides seamless connectivity and reduces the travel time between Pune and Singapore significantly.”
Jet Airways has announced special ‘introductory’ return Economy fares from Pune, starting at Rs 23,999 only, as also a Premiere fare of Rs 66,999. Guests can book tickets and enjoy attractive savings with these special fares, with the sale starting on 24th – 31st October, 2018.
The new frequency will offer guests from Pune convenient connections to Auckland, Bangkok, Brisbane, Jakarta, Denpasar-Bali, Hanoi, Phuket, Jinjiang, Medan, Kuala Lumpur, Melbourne, Manila, Nadi, Penang, Perth, Phnom Penh, Shanghai, Yangon, Ho Chi Minh City, Surabaya and Sydney through two-way flights operated by codeshare partners, via Singapore.
Meanwhile, the airline will also commence its third daily frequency on the Delhi – Singapore sector owing to overwhelming response to existing services. This third service complements the airline’s existing services on this route which are extremely popular with corporate and leisure travellers.
