(TAN): Singapore Airlines (SIA) is launching four-times weekly seasonal services to Vancouver in Canada and Seattle in the US from December 2, 2021 to February 15, 2022, the airline said.
Two of the weekly Seattle-Vancouver-Singapore flights will operate as Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) services, providing eligible customers quarantine-free entry into Singapore. SIA is also converting its daily non-stop services from San Francisco, USA, to Singapore, to designated VTL services from October 20, 2021.
These provide additional quarantine-free travel options for customers who wish to travel to and from North America, on top of the earlier announced VTL services from Los Angeles and New York.
