If you are travelling to Hong Kong via Singapore Airlines, or to Shenzhen via Silkair, or to Macau/Hong Kong/Shenzhen via Scoot tomorrow (23 Aug), then be prepared for major delays - Typhoon Hato is hitting the Pearl river delta region and flights may not be able to operate as normal.

IAH will likely be closed from 26-Aug to 31-Aug due to Harvey... Does it mean SQ will be parking their metal for 24-hrs at MAN before making the return journey back to SIN?
It is fortunate that SQ51 made it out of IAH on 25-Aug several hrs before Harvey's landfall.

Yup that is right, i was on the last flight 9v-smf that was cancelled from man-iah.
Was heading to Orlando sin-man-hou-mco, during SIN pre boarding I was calling up Sq contact centre and they said the flight was still on schedule, upon arrival in Manchester we were parked in a remote bay in MAN and I knew it something is off, then the accouncement that everyone was waiting for came through, MAN-IAH cancelled.
Thank god they rebooked me direct MAN-MCO on VS leaving 1 hour later, phew.
Apparently only 31 pax were going to IAH and all of us were rebooked to our final destination regardless of single or split different airline tickets.
Now the official news is that IAH will reopen on 31 August and I'm coming back 2 days later.. imagine the amount of overbooking and how they going to get the stranded crews back man

SQ346|30AUG to ZRH is delayed by 7 hours.
STD: 0125
ATD: 0822
Probably the originally assigned 9V-SKL went technical. 9V-SKH (ex-SQ403) is operating the flight.
The return SQ345 (arriving SIN 31AUG) would be delayed as well.
STD: 1145
PETD: 1600
STA: 0555
PETA: 1010Singapore Airlines - A great way to fly...

Originally posted by SQfanatic View PostFR24 shows that it made it to MAN but not IAH. I wonder how many A350's are in MAN due to Harvey at the present moment. My heart goes out to the victims of Hurricane Harvey.
Horrible situation.

Originally posted by Singapore_Air View PostIt left at around 0730h in the end. There was a birdstrike during landing on its previous flight which damaged an engine.
ATD: 0750
9V-SMA is operating the delayed SQ328|01SEP. Was it 9V-SMC that suffered the birdstrike (SQ633|31AUG)?
Possibly related to this delay, SQ856|01SEP is being operated by a B77W (9V-SWW) instead of the usual A359 and SQ211|01SEP is operated by a B773 (9V-SYF) instead of the usual 77W.Singapore Airlines - A great way to fly...

Horrible situation.
It seems horrible and difficult. New post on another thread now indicates IAH is now open for revenue service again.

Also, SQ212, operated by a 773 (9V-SYF) as 9V-SPL reported earlier has departed SYD but turned back to SYD. I wonder what happened.Last edited by SQfanatic; 2 September 2017, 07:09 AM.

If passengers are connecting through Singapore they gotta be worried.
