Singapore Airlines has announced adjustments to its Japan flight frequency and aircraft deployment, partially, in its October 2018 edition of its inflight magazine Silver Kris. 

Firstly, Singapore Airlines is adding its fourth daily frequency on its non-stop flight to Haneda. From 28 December 2018, its B777-300ER aircraft departs from Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3 for Haneda at 5.25 pm under flight SQ630 and arrives in Haneda at 1 am on 29 December 2018.

On 29 December 2018, flight SQ639 leaves Haneda for Singapore at 2.30 am and touches down in Singapore at 9.15 am.

Singapore(SIN) - Haneda(HND) - SIN Timetable with effect from 28 December 2018

SIN-HND/HND-SIN   SQ632/SQ633   8.05 am-3.35 pm/4.40 pm-11.20 pm   A350-900
SIN-HND/HND-SIN   SQ634/SQ635   2.05 pm-9.40 pm/10.50 pm-5.25 am   B777-300ER
SIN-HND/HND-SIN   SQ630/SQ639   5.25 pm-1 am/2.30 am-9.15 am          B777-300ER
SIN-HND/HND-SIN   SQ636/SQ631   10.45 pm-6.20 am/8.50 am-3.25 pm   B777-300ER

The additional frequency under SQ630/SQ639 will add over 1800 seats per week overall to the Tokyo routes. Singapore Airlines operates A350-900 and B777-300ER aircraft on its services to Haneda. It also operates non-stop flights to Narita using B787-10 and B777-300ER aircraft. 


Secondly, Singapore Airlines' B787-10 stops operating daily flight to Osaka Kansai after 27 October 2018. From 28 October 2018, the airline operates the world's largest commercial aircraft, the Airbus A380, to Kansai daily.



Flight SQ618 departs from Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3 at 1.30 am and arrives in Kansai at 8.45 am. The return flight, SQ619, leaves Kansai at 11 am and arrives in Singapore at 5.10 pm. 

The A380 service will add over 720 seats per week to the Singapore - Osaka Kansai route. Singapore Airlines remains operating flights to Kansai twice-daily.

Besides the above adjustments, Singapore Airlines is withdrawing A330-300 service from its Fukuoka route after 26 December 2018.  From 27 December 2018, its B787-10 operates daily flight to Fukuoka. 

On 27 December 2018, flight SQ656 departs from Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3 at 1.20 am, touches down in Fukuoka at 8.20 am before leaving Fukuoka for Singapore at 9.45 am and landing in Singapore at 3.30 pm under flight SQ655.



Singapore Airlines' B787-10 continues to operate flights to Nagoya Chubu in Japan.
