Booking your VTL flight? Here are Singapore Airlines' latest fares (2021)
![Booking your VTL flight? Here are Singapore Airlines' latest fares (2021)](https://media.asiaone.com/sites/default/files/styles/article_top_image/public/original_images/Oct2021/20211020_flight_pexels.jpg?itok=Jg7mqs2K)
When it comes to booking flights for vacations, it’s ironic that as Singaporeans, we often look at other airlines for cheaper flights even though we technically have a national carrier:
Bobian right…
Since Singapore Airlines (SIA) is ranked number 2 on the World’s Top 10 Airlines Of 2021 according to SKYTRAX.
And reputation always comes with a price.
However, some of us are also more willing to splurge a little more for more comfort and impeccable service while we’re in the skies.
With the recent announcement of new Vaccinated Travel Lanes (VTLs), some of us might be in the midst of planning for our long-awaited trips. (finally!)
And if you’re an SIA convert, you’ll be pleased to know that SIA will be one of the carriers that will be providing these designated VTL flights.
(There are also other airline carriers that will be providing these designated flights, but we’ll be focusing on SIA for this article.)
Without further ado, let’s take a look at how much Singapore Airlines air tickets would cost for your VTL trip!
Disclaimer: We’re not sponsored to write this. We are as excited to go on a trip as you guys, and hope that this price compilation will be helpful. But if SIA wants to sponsor the Seedly team some air tickets… #justsaying
Prices are also accurate as of the time of writing, subject to changes by Singapore Airlines.
Singapore is expanding its list of countries under the VTL scheme.
This scheme allows fully vaccinated residents to be able to travel to and fro these countries without having to quarantine.
As of now, these are the countries that are under this scheme.
Country/Region of Departure | Effective Date as a VTL Country/Region and for Entry into Singapore |
---|---|
Brunei Darussalam (Not open for leisure travel) | Sept, 2021, 11.59pm |
Germany | |
Canada | Oct 18, 2021, 11.59pm |
Denmark | |
France | |
Italy | |
Netherlands | |
Spain | |
United Kingdom | |
United States | |
Republic of Korea | Nov 14, 2021, 11.59pm |
Singapore travellers will be able to take any flights to the VTL country, but a designated VTL flight has to be booked for return flights to Singapore.
That being said, it is advised to take a direct flight to these countries, as any transits in a non-VTL country would affect the VTL eligibility (i.e. not having to serve a stay-home notice).
Do note that this currently does not apply to South Korea, where both flights have to be designated VTL flights.
The schedules listed below are VTL flights and their prices.
Note: To offer greater flexibility during this period, Singapore Airlines allows complimentary rebooking for all tickets issued up to 31 Dec 2021. You may also transfer your purchased additional baggage, or seats, if any, to the new flights. Purchased add-on deals will also be refunded.
Complimentary rebooking includes unlimited changes to booking on or before 31 Dec 2021, and one additional change after 31 Dec 2021

Besides the VTL flights listed above, Singapore Airlines is also operating non-VTL flights on the same routes.
Therefore, do be careful when you’re selecting your flights.
Travellers are also allowed to visit multiple countries during the same trip and still be eligible for VTL as long as the countries visited are under the VTL scheme.

This means being able to fly from Singapore to Paris, then Paris to Amsterdam, and still take a VTL flight back to Singapore.
Singapore citizens and permanent residents are not required to apply for a Vaccinated Travel Pass (VTP).
However, short-term visitors and Long-Term Pass holders are required to apply for a VTP online between seven and 30 days prior to their intended date of entry into Singapore.
VTP applications will start on the following dates:
VTL travellers are now required to take two Covid-19 PCR tests, depending on their country of departure.
For individuals who are planning to visit South Korea, there are additional PCR tests to be taken:
Do note that if you’re on a flight before Oct 19, 2021, you’re still required to take the two post-arrival tests on Day 3 and 7.
Promos and discounted fares are great.
But what if you could also maximise your flights by earning miles and points which will eventually allow you to fly for free ?
If you’re already paying for your flight tickets with a credit card and want to find out what is the best hotel or airline loyalty program to join.
Or even if you haven’t gotten your credit card yet but want to get into the miles game.
