As for SQ on this route, I think they're close to being done. Covid derailed UA's SFO assault on SQ.

- 2x daily HKG
- 2x daily SIN
- 1x daily DEL
- 1x daily BLR

Post-covid, those UA routes will return in force. Combined with SQ's financial woes, I'd expect SQ to kill the SFO-HKG 5th freedom and continue to regress from there.

UA is also suffering financially. What makes you think that SQ can't compete post-COVID? Both airlines have been raising billions over the past 10 months.
