Scoot Expands its Network to Padang, Phu Quoc and Shantou
Scoot, the low-cost subsidiary of Singapore Airlines (SIA),today announced the launch of three new flight services to Phu Quoc in Vietnam, Padang inIndonesia and Shantou in China. Flights to Phu Quoc and Padang will commence on 20December 2024 and 6 January 2025, respectively, and will be operated on the Embraer
E190-E2 aircraft while flights to Shantou will begin on 16 January 2025 on the Airbus A320family aircraft.
Known for its rare wildlife and pristine beaches, Phu Quoc is a tropical haven perfect for a
holiday of adventure or relaxation. It also houses the Phu Quoc National Park, recognised as
a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. At present, Phu Quoc is the only destination in Vietnam that
has a 30-day visa-free policy, offering international travellers convenient access. From 20
December 2024, Scoot will operate three times weekly flights to Phu Quoc. Two more
weekly flights will be added from 25 January 2025, bringing the total number of weekly flights
between Singapore and Phu Quoc to five times.
Padang, the capital city of West Sumatra and the birthplace of Padang cuisine (Nasi
Padang), is a vibrant destination known for its Minangkabau culture and breathtaking
beaches for surfing. Whether a culture seeker, a nature or food lover, Padang is a hidden
gem waiting to be discovered. Scoot will operate four times weekly flights to Padang.
Shantou, a coastal city located in the province of Guangdong in China, is a destination with
deep cultural heritage and home to Chaoshan cuisine including marinated raw seafood.
Travellers may like to stroll down Shantou Small Park to see the memorial hall of Dr Sun Yat-
sen at Zhongshan Memorial Pavilion, or escape the city to bask in Nan Ao Island’s blue
skies, sandy beaches and majestic mountains. Scoot will operate three times weekly flights
to Shantou.
In addition to the new destinations, Scoot will be making some adjustments to its network to
better match capacity to demand and optimise fleet deployment.
Scoot will add two more weekly flights to Jakarta, bringing the total number of weekly flights
to 19 times weekly from 24 November 2024. Services to Koh Samui will be increased from
14 to 21 times weekly from 20 December 2024, and services to Davao will increase from 9
to 11 times weekly from 17 December 2024. Flights to Vientiane will increase from four to
five times weekly from 9 February 2025. Operations to Nanchang will be suspended after the
last flight on 14 February 2025.

flights to three cities in Vietnam, 84 weekly flights to 11 cities in Indonesia and 89 weekly
flights to 17 points in China by January 2025.

Mr. Brian Torrey, General Manager, India and West Asia, Scoot said, “With Scoot’s expanded
network, we’re excited about the potential for increased travel from India to destinations like
Phu Quoc, Padang, and Shantou. We expect Phu Quoc especially to become a popular
addition to Indian travellers’ itineraries, complementing existing Vietnam destinations that
Scoot serves – Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi – and offering a rich, multi-city experience.”
