If someone can confirm this.. I read somewhere that MI will also take Singapore-Hyderabad route?
In the long run, SQ seems to be handing over almost all their Regional routes in the future.. Is this kind of the way CX & Dragonair operate?

Confirm it yourself! Just go to the SQ website and try and book SIN-HYD. It takes you straight to the MI website. Already happened. The "jetstar-isation" of SQ continues ..... well not quite. But a short hop to PEN is very difft to the longer SIN-HYD sectors. But I draw parallels with QF/JQ as in the same way JQ is not part of oneworld, MI is not part of star alliance. This is distinct to CX/KA as really from a one world frequent flyer's (status earning) perspective, there is no difference between flying CX and KA, both are part of oneworld.

Hmm, I'm flying MNL-SIN-PEN in J on an award ticket. The connection in SIN is overnight and the plan was to relax in the SKL.
Does this impending demise mean I'm stuck with the SATS Premier Lounge (which doesn't appear to open 24h)?

Wonder if Brunei (BWN) is next? Brunei has been unique in that some days are operated by MI metal and some on SQ metal. However, all flights are SQ flights bearing the SQ flight number.
