Sq992 / sq993 sin-hkt-sin
Re-checking prices/schedules for my travel dates in early July, I see that SQ has scheduled a single mainline 777-200 on the SIN-HKT-SIN sectors at the exact same time as my original Silkair flights. A look at the inventory reveals that my MI-operated flight, as well as the flight immediately before mine, have been closed out with the exception of Z and Y, leading me to believe that those flights could be removed from the schedule and replaced with SQ.
I assume this is related to the 737-MAX groundings, but I'm hoping the resident SQ experts can shed some light on when/how the reservations department will make it official, as my PNR still shows the MI sectors. As far as I'm aware, SQ hasn't flown SIN-HKT in the last 10-15 years (perhaps they did before?) so this is an interesting new add.
