Firefly plans to fully resume Subang-Seletar flights on Oct 22 after haze cancellations, as air quality in Singapore improves.

The airline kept a reduced schedule until Oct 21 and cancelled several flights, while offering affected passengers Malaysia Airlines alternatives or full refunds.

Singapore’s NEA warned winds may shift and bring more haze from Kalimantan, so Firefly said it will keep monitoring conditions and prioritise safety.

SINGAPORE – Malaysian low-cost carrier Firefly plans to fully resume flights between Subang Airport and Seletar Airport on Oct 22, as hazy conditions in Singapore ease.

The airline cancelled flights on the route from Oct 10 to 12 as a “proactive measure” due to the haze arising from fires in Indonesia. It subsequently extended the cancellations three more times – once to Oct 14, then Oct 16, and most recently to Oct 19 .

In a Facebook post on the evening of Oct 19, Firefly said: “Following the latest operational assessment of weather and haze conditions at Seletar Airport, Firefly will continue to operate a reduced schedule between Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, Subang, and Seletar Airport, Singapore, until Oct 21.”

“Full resumption of all scheduled services is planned for Oct 22, subject to operational conditions.”

As at 9pm on Oct 19, though, Seletar Airport’s website still shows all inbound and outbound Firefly flights on Oct 20 as “cancelled”.

Meanwhile, in its daily haze advisory on the same evening, Singapore’s National Environment Agency noted an improvement in the air quality over Singapore. It attributed the let-up to the turning of winds to blow from the south-south-east and showers in the vicinity.

However, from the night of Oct 20 until Oct 22, the winds are likely to turn east-south-easterly with dry conditions forecast over the surrounding region, including parts of Kalimantan, the agency said.

“This may bring smoke haze from fires in Kalimantan towards Singapore,” it added.

Firefly said in its Oct 19 post that the following flights remain cancelled:

FY3122 (Oct 19 to 21)

FY3124 (Oct 19 to 20)

FY3126 (Oct 19 to 21)

FY3128 (Oct 19 to 20)

FY3130 (Oct 19 to 21)

FY3132 (Oct 19 to 20)

FY3123 (Oct 19 to 21)

FY3125 (Oct 19 to 20)

FY3127 (Oct 19 to 21)

FY3129 (Oct 19 to 20)

FY3131 (Oct 19 to 21)

FY3133 (Oct 19 to 20)

Affected passengers are being contacted and offered alternative travel arrangements on available Malaysia Airlines flights between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, subject to seat availability, Firefly said.

Firefly is a subsidiary of Malaysia Aviation Group, of which Malaysia Airlines is also part of. Firefly’s fleet includes twin turboprop aircraft, according to its website.

Those who choose not to proceed with the alternative arrangements are eligible for a full refund to the original payment method within 30 working days, Firefly said.

The airline urged passengers to ensure that their contact details are up to date to receive timely updates via e-mail or SMS. Alternatively, people can contact Firefly Customer Care or Live Chat support via the Firefly website, it added.

It said: “Firefly continues to monitor weather and haze conditions at Seletar Airport and will provide further updates should there be any changes to the flight schedule.”

“The safety of our passengers and crew remains our utmost priority.”
