True in theory. However, BA is 99 per cent certain to use the local Servisair equivalent in SIN, which is already loading current newspapers onto other carriers (so security clearance done) and is loading other stuff for BA.

This also implies there are no local papers at all loaded. Not sure how they intend to woo the local market with that. Sure most would prefer Straits Times to the Daily Mail.
