Tigerair to Launch Singapore - Ipoh Flights

Tigerair has unveiled plans to launch a four times weekly service from Singapore to Ipoh, Malaysia’s fourth largest city.

The Ipoh service will be operated by an Airbus 320 aircraft, carrying about 1,440 passengers per week.

Tickets for the new service which is scheduled to commence on 29 May 2015 (subject to regulatory approval) will go on sale from 20 April.

Ipoh will be Tigerair’s fourth Malaysian destination which currently comprises Kuala Lumpur, Langkawi and Penang.

Chief Executive Officer of Tigerair, Lee Lik Hsin said, “We are excited to add Ipoh to our growing Asia network and be the first to operate jet flights in Ipoh. Tigerair already enjoys a significant presence in Malaysia and this addition will help meet demand for both leisure and business travel between Singapore and Malaysia. The launch of this new route alongside our deepened partnership with KrisFlyer and Scoot highlight our ongoing commitment to providing travelers with greater choices and memorable experiences.”
