British Airways (BA) resumes flights between Singapore and Sydney,
with first flight scheduled for 28 March 2022. The announcement follows
Australia’s plans to reopen borders to fully vaccinated international
travellers.
The first flight on BA15 will be operated by a Boeing 787-9 and is
scheduled to depart from London on 27 March and will arrive in Singapore
on 28 March at 1745 local time. The flight will depart from Singapore
on 28 March at 1925 local time and arrive in Sydney on 29 March at 0610
local time.
The returning flight on BA16 will depart from Sydney at 1550 local
time and will arrive in Singapore at 2105 local time. Thereafter, it
will depart at 2235 local time connect to London Heathrow.
In line with Covid-safe protocols, BA has introduced measures at the
airport and on board to manage safety and hygiene. Key surfaces such as
seats, screens, seat buckles and tray tables are sanitised after every
flight, and each aircraft is completely cleaned from nose to tail every
day.
Passenger comfort and wellbeing while in-cabin is ensured with
HEPA-filtered air that is recycled once every two to three minutes,
which remove microscopic bacteria and virus clusters with over 99.9%
efficiency, equivalent to hospital operating theatre standards.
As part of BA’s Better World Sustainability programme, passengers
will be offered new plant-based menus across its lounges, while
single-use plastic bottles will be removed, with new water stations in
its place.
