On 20 September 2001, Singapore Airlines (SIA) announced that in light of the prevailing economic situation and a decline in forward bookings, it was reviewing its operating patterns. Outlined below are details of service reductions to be implemented in the near future.

- Singapore – Amsterdam – New York (Newark) services will be reduced from four per week to three. However, SIA will continue operating its daily service to New York (JFK International) via Frankfurt.

- Singapore – Surabaya services will be reduced from 12 per week to 10.

- Singapore – Kaohsiung services will be reduced from five per week to three.

- Singapore – Kuala Lumpur services will be reduced from 10 per day to nine.

- Singapore – Hong Kong services will be reduced from seven per day to six.

All the above changes will take effect at the end of October 2001.

In addition, as a precautionary measure, SIA is suspending its services to Pakistan. SIA currently flies four times a week to Karachi and Lahore. The suspension takes effect from Friday 28 September. SIA wishes to apologize to all passengers who may have been inconvenienced as a result of this suspension of services and hopes to resume services when circumstances permit.

SIA will continue to monitor its operations systemwide and make adjustments if necessary to match capacity with demand.
