This is good news for us Perth residents, the more seats available the better. I suppose we should be grateful that QF at least deigns to operate 1 daily A330 flight Per - SIN so at least we are better off than ADL. With SQ able to profitably, we assume, operate 5 wide-body flights per day I am surprised that Jetstar has not tried operating a B787 on that route - or haven't they got any to spare?

Good news. The new PER-SIN flights is also well timed for SIN residents who want to spend a long weekend in PER.

Takes the total services between Australian &SIN on SQ to ~20/day. (And SQ group services to 25-26 per day including SilkAir and Scoot)

Fairly sure it is up to 10 x weekly (CX171 x daily, CX143 x 3 weekly).

Scoot have SIN-PER aswell so SQ well and truly have the market covered.
PER residents are very lucky

CX143 will be ceasing soon, had it as part of my OWA in May & it was changed to CX171. This change was made prior to recent Coronavirus outbreak.

Yes we will probably be flying ScootPlus back from Singapore in September after some J flights to/from Europe on an AY ticket. They are a good option to beat the "Australia Tax" for us. We are prepared to miss out on service for a big seat and good legroom on a shortish flight. Thus saving several thousand dollars on J seats Sin - Per. As we are retired, any delays in the flight back to Perth is of no real concern.
