SIA Launches Thrice-Weekly Non-stop Service between Taipei and Los Angeles on 25 August

TAIPEI - Singapore Airlines (SIA) will launch thrice-weekly non-stop services between Taipei and Los Angeles on 25 August 2021.

SIA will operate Airbus A350-900 aircraft on this service. The A350-900 will offer the latest cabin products in a three-cabin configuration, including 42 Business Class, 24 Premium Economy Class, and 187 Economy Class seats.  In addition to offering a convenient non-stop flight to our customers, the service also represents a significant increase in SIA’s freight capacity with the shipment of general cargo and mail, perishable products, and high-tech goods from Taiwan to the west coast of the United States of America (USA).

Mr. Chua Kian Hwa, General Manager Taiwan, Singapore Airlines, said: “We are thrilled to introduce the non-stop service between Taipei and Los Angeles, which offers a convenient connection to one of the popular destinations for Taiwanese travellers.  The service demonstrates SIA’s commitment to rebuild and grow our route network for passengers and cargo in Taiwan.  Customers in Taiwan will be able to enjoy SIA’s industry-leading cabin products and in-flight services on this long-haul flight.”

Precautionary Measures to Safeguard the Well-being of Customers

The SIA Group has stepped up our cabin cleaning measures and introduced additional precautionary measures to protect the well-being of our customers and crew.  These include temperature screening before boarding and wearing face masks at all times except during meals throughout the flight duration.

Customers are provided with a complimentary care kit containing a face mask, hand sanitiser, and anti-bacterial wipes.  SIA aircraft are thoroughly cleaned, with extra care taken to sanitise common surfaces.  Lavatories are also cleaned more often throughout the flight with strong disinfectants.

Every aircraft in the SIA Group fleet is equipped with HEPA filters, which remove more than 99.9% of the microbes in the air.  Cabin air is also refreshed every two to three minutes throughout the flight.  Please visit singaporeair.com for more information.
