If you are traveling to the UK from Singapore, your end-to-end travel
experience is about to be simplified and you will be able to fly as
well as travel on rail on a single booking. Simple, isn’t it! Singapore
Airlines has recently announced partnership with First Great Western and
Heathrow Express to provide a simplified travel experience to those
traveling to any of the destinations served by Singapore Airlines from
London Heathrow on a single booking in the UK.
According to Singapore Airlines, this unique partnership has been formed
to simplify the overall travel experience of the customers allowing
them to travel to several cities in the south west of the UK to any of
the destinations being currently served by Singapore Airlines from
London Heathrow on a single booking. This tie-up among the three
companies would be convenient for passengers as well since they would
not be required to make three separate bookings and instead travel on a
single ticket.
Singapore Airlines said that under this unique Rail-Fly partnership the
customers who start their travel at any one of 11 railway stations in
the UK would be able to travel as far as Brisbane in Australia on a
single booking. For example, through this kind of booking a customer
would be able to travel by rail with First Great Western to London
Paddington from Bristol, catch the Heathrow Express service to London
Heathrow, and finally take Singapore Airlines flight to Brisbane via
Singapore Changi Airport – and that too, all on the same booking.
