The announcement

Scoot, Singapore Airlines' low-cost subsidiary, announced on Aug. 6 that it will launch flights to two new Southeast Asian destinations.

Besides Melaka, the airline also shared that it would fly to and from Kertajati in Indonesia from Sep. 28, 2024.

All-in economy class fares start from S$92 to Kertajati and S$69 to Melaka, inclusive of taxes.

In a statement on the new flight offerings, Scoot's CEO said they were "confident in the demand for air travel".

Another new destination

Scoot also announced new daily flights to Subang, Malaysia, in July 2024.

The Subang airport is located just 28km from the Kuala Lumpur city centre, providing travellers an alternative to flying to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), which is around 55km from the city centre.
