July 2026 Operating Statistics

In July 2026, the Singapore Airlines (SIA) Group’s passenger traffic rose 2.6% year-on-year, while passenger capacity, driven mainly by network expansion to East Asia, Europe as well as the South West Pacific, increased 5.5%.

The Group’s passenger load factor (PLF) was 86.0%, with SIA and Scoot posting monthly PLFs of 84.8% and 90.2% respectively. The two airlines carried a combined total of 3.7 million passengers, 4.0% higher than a year ago.

Cargo loads were stable year-on-year, even as reduced freighter aircraft activity due maintenance contributed to a 1.5% decline in cargo capacity. Consequently, the cargo load factor rose by 0.8 percentage points to 57.9%.

During the month, Scoot suspended services to Jeddah in Saudi Arabia from 14 July 2026, following the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. SIA’s services to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates remain suspended.

As of 31 July 2026, the Group’s passenger network¹ covered 136 destinations in 35 countries and territories. SIA served 78 destinations, while Scoot served 84 destinations. The cargo network¹ comprised 139 destinations in 36 countries and territories.
