I think it will be a while before we know ( see story below )

Swiss International Air Lines CEO Harry Hohmeister told ATW at the Star Alliance meeting in Queenstown that “2011 will be the year of consolidation for us,” noting, “We will not add new long-haul routes [but will] consolidate against the current trend in the industry.

When they do start expanding longhaul again I would be surprised to see SIN , there is already a daily A380 on SIN-ZRH from SQ , is more capacity really needed on that sector ?
