With a long and complicated history, Singapore is now one of the most future-focused countries in the world, and has been recognised as the most ‘technology-ready’ nation by the World Economic Forum.

However, while Singapore has embraced futuristic technologies and is known as a hub for innovation, that doesn’t mean that you can’t see its historic roots etched across the country.

When you visit Singapore, you will fall in love with the clashing of culture, technology, history, natural beauty, and everything else that is added to the country’s melting pot. Open up your mind to a huge variety of culinary delights, hop around the cities on the widespread public transport, and stand in awe of the green skyscrapers which are taking over the skylines of Singapore.

We are proud to offer First class flights to Singapore as well as economy.
