Singapore have flown over the Ukraine in the past (I have been on at least one flight that did) but after last nights close call (they apparently had a flight about 25km away) they have suddenly changed their routing (though the airspace is now closed in any case it seems). The following now appears on the SQ website:
"Singapore Airlines would like to advise customers that we are no longer using the Ukrainian airspace and have re-routed all our flights to alternative flight paths that are away from the region."
