SINGAPORE has announced the conclusion of three separate bilateral Open Skies Agreements (OSAs) with Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
The deal means that both Singaporean and Scandinavian airlines will be authorised to fly between Singapore and any point in Scandinavia via and beyond to any third country without restrictions in capacity, frequency or aircraft type.
"The OSAs are even more liberal than conventional OSAs as it provides for unlimited "hubbing" rights for cargo airlines of Singapore and the Scandinavian countries. As an illustration, a Singapore cargo airline will be allowed to base its aircraft at any point in Scandinavia and use this as a hub to operate to any other country without any restriction on destination, frequency or capacity. The same applies to Scandinavian carriers," a statement from the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) said.
