SIN to HKG direct route

Is there no skyteam direct flight between SIN and HKG?

I could only find Star alliance and Oneworld

Thanks!

No SkyTeam carrier has a hub at SIN or HKG, hence the logic of no non-stop flight on a Skyteam carrier.

But the bigger question is this.. Even if its not i direct flight should it matter? If your an elite plus member you will get extra miles for flying indirect and you still get to use the lounges. Plus you will find the price to be the same or even slightly cheaper than a direct flight.

My flight to Hong Kong from Brisbane non direct through Taipei is cheaper than direct flights.

Your most convenient ST option for SIN - HKG would be;

SIN - SGN - HKG on VN

This depends on the day of the week and the time the OP needs to fly. CI via TPE and CZ via CAN are options, too, and can be slightly shorter.

There are skyteam carriers that fly sin-icn... its called korean air. And sin-pvg...called China eastern. No alliance has all direct routes. Star Alliance has a few more than Skyteam and Oneworld has a few less than Skyteam.

You should really fly CX (OneWorld) for this kind of routing.
