Beginning June 1, United Airlines will offer daily, non-stop flights from its San Francisco hub (SFO) to Singapore (CAG). This will be the first non-stop service offered from the United States to Singapore.
Flights will depart San Francisco daily at 11:25 p.m. and arrive in Singapore two days later at 6:45 a.m. Returning flights will depart Singapore at 8:45 a.m. and arrive in San Francisco at 9:15 a.m. same day. Flying times are estimated to be between 15 and 17 hours, compared to similar one-stop flights between the two destinations, which typically clock in around 20 hours.
United will use the Boeing 787-9 for the new route, which offers 252 seats, including 48 seats in United BusinessFirst.
“We are very excited about introducing non-stop flights between San Francisco and Singapore. This long-awaited service has been made possible by the newest version of our customer-pleasing Boeing 787 Dreamliner, and will offer unique benefits to customers traveling between our West Coast hub at San Francisco and Singapore. Customers arriving to San Francisco will have dozens of options to connect to other cities across the Americas,” says Marcel Fuchs, vice president of Atlantic and Pacific sales, United Airlines.
In order to accommodate the route, United will discontinue its Singapore–Tokyo Narita service.
