Melbourne Tullamarine welcomes inaugural A350 service

[Greg Hyde]

Singapore Airlines (SIA) has become the second Airbus A350 operator to Australia.

Under overcast skies, flight SQ207, operated by A350-900 9V-SME, touched down at Melbourne Tullamarine at about 1640 local time on Wednesday, after a six and a half hour journey from Singapore.

The aircraft was met with an Airservices Aviation Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) monitor cross on its way to the international terminal. It was on the ground for about three hours before operating the reciprocal SQ208 back to Singapore.
