Singapore Airlines has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Changi Airport Group (CAG) and Singapore Tourism Board (STB) to jointly promote tourism to Singapore.

The global tie-up will give tourists the opportunity to visit places of interest in Singapore, and savour what the multicultural food paradise has to offer through Singapore Stopover Holiday packages priced from as low as US$33 per person on a twin-share basis for the first night.

“With so many new attractions being added to Singapore’s tourism landscape, the city is bristling with vibrancy. We are very excited to collaborate with STB and CAG to promote Singapore as the destination of choice. To further entice travellers, customers who sign up for our special Singapore holiday offers will enjoy added value in the form of dining and shopping vouchers,” said Mr. Goh Choon Phong, Singapore Airlines’ Executive Vice President, Marketing and the Regions.

In addition to attractively-priced packages, customers will be able to enjoy a range of complimentary services and features in Singapore, including:

• Free transfers from airport to hotel
• Admission to seven key attractions such as the Singapore Zoological Garden and Sentosa
• Unlimited rides on the SIA Hop-on Bus
• A coffee/tea and toast set at Ya Kun Kaya Toast, a well-known local chain of coffee houses that serve traditional toasts with kaya (egg and coconut jam)
• An international calling card
• A voucher worth Sin$10 for dining in the city, and
• Shopping vouchers worth Sin$10 each to shop at Singapore Changi Airport.

“Today’s competitive tourism landscape offers savvy travellers many options. But this year, the international spotlight is on Singapore and its many new attractions. We want Singapore to be top-of-mind for holiday-makers, whether it's for the first or tenth time. Together with SIA and CAG, we aim to entice more travellers to discover Singapore’s exciting tourism offerings. For our stopover guests, we warmly welcome them and hope they will be inspired to take more and longer vacations in Singapore,” said Mr. Chew Tiong Heng, STB’s Director of Destination Marketing.
