Scoot cancels SG-Macau route flights

The flights from Macau to Singapore intended to be operated by Singapore’s low-cost airline Scoot have been canceled, according to an email the Times had access to.
Earlier this month, Scoot announced that it would launch three flights to Singapore from Macau, which would provide another option for local residents looking for flights out of Macau. According to its schedule for April, the airline would operate flights from Singapore to Macau and Macau to Singapore on April 20, 24 and 27.
The flights were scheduled to depart the SAR at 5:55 p.m. arriving in Singapore at 9:55 p.m.. A one-way ticket from Macau costs approximately HKD968.
However, a passenger received an email from Scoot noting that it would cancel the flight from Singapore to Macau on April 24 due to “operational constraints arising from the growing scale of the Covid-19.”
A refund was offered amounting to 120% of the original itinerary value in the form of Scoot travel vouchers.
The Times has checked whether all three flights were canceled. It could be seen that only a Macau to Singapore flight on April 24 was available at SGD175 (MOP1,050).
The cancellation of these flights has once again made it harder for Macau residents to travel out of Macau except to mainland China.
Previously, the airline noted in a statement that the relaunch of the flights “was partly driven by moves to ease restrictions on both transit and inbound passengers in a safe and gradual manner, helping to support an increase in travel demand.” LV
