Looks like it will be short lived, at least in its current form re equipment and the tasman leg:

Passenger load out of CBR to SIN is ok, not great across the ditch to WLG. A lot of transiting passengers would make up the numbers continuing on from Singapore. A lot of money would be made for SQ with the cargo part of the routes. Will be interesting to see if it lasts, and to see if QR coming will make any difference

Perhaps change to the A330 may occur.

The config of 772 used to CBR is 38J228Y, the A333 is 30J255Y....

How would a lot of money be made for SQ out of freight, when they carried 280kg to Wellington in total for the month of December???

VA will operate the CBR to WLG leg in a 737

Sorry to bring up an old thread...
Thoughts on the following link? Does this confirm that the flights are not as strong as Singapore Airlines hopes? http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/9264...xpress-service Alex |

Hardly - they're pulling a total of 3 return flights over a period of almost two-and-a-half months, i.e. less than the equivalent of a week's flights, and at least 2 of the 3 are during school terms. All it shows is that this service, like most airline services, is seasonal and subject to fluctuations in demand.

As suspected the service has not worked out, from May 1 its moving the tasman leg to a Melbourne based service and routing via Sydney the Singapore Canberra inbound flights using a 773ER

Sure, Wellington clearly isn’t going well via Canberra. But flights are increasing to daily so the service is clearly still supported strongly by SQ.
I do think the Canberra -NZ route will be filled. I’m not convinced it’ll be Wellington, though the ACT government is pushing the capital - capital routing. Cheers M
