the airline said in a release here.
As part of the winter schedule, which runs between October-end and March, SIA was also planning to restore many of its flights which were suspended earlier this year, primarily on account of Sars. The capacity offered in the winter schedule would be back to nearly the same level as a year ago, it said, adding SIA would continue to monitor the trend of recovery of traffic and adjust capacity to meet the demand.
The airline also announced addition of a new destination to its network - Shenzhen in China, where it currently flies to Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Guangzhou.
