A350 XWB operator Finnair will begin Singapore Changi Airport flights using the

The Finnish flag
carrier operates 5X-weekly services to Singapore, but will increase those to 7
using a combination of A330 and A350 aircraft until the carrier takes delivery
of more A350s.

"We expect to
take 3 more A350s this year, but until we have enough aircraft in the fleet to
fully service the Singapore route we will use both aircraft—probably for the
first month of operation," Finnair head of travel products Anssi Partanen
said.

He said the new A350
service to Singapore would complement its newly announced services to Shanghai
in November/2015, Fukuoka in early 2016 and Guangzhou in May/2016.

"These new
services to Asia destinations like Fukuoka and Guangzhou won't be the last you
will see from us," Anssi Partanen said.

"We will
introduce more in future; we are looking both at new destinations and
extensions of services to existing destinations."
