Singapore Airlines subsidiary Scoot announced that its two new Embraer E190-E2 are due to arrive in Singapore in September and October of this year, bringing its stock of Embraer E190-E2s to four.

Scoot named the third aircraft Jalan-Jalan and the fourth Travel Kaki.

The addition of these aircraft enables Scoot to launch flight services to two new Southeast Asian destinations: Kertajali in Indonesia and Malacca in Malaysia.

The addition of Kertajati and Malacca to Scoot’s network follows the recent announcement of another new destination, Subang in Malaysia, effective 1 September 2024. Subang, located just 28 kilometres from Kuala Lumpur, provides travellers an alternative and convenient gateway to the Malaysian capital.

Additional routes

Scoot will also be deploying the E190-E2s on some existing services. 

This includes twice weekly flights to Pekanbaru on the E190- E2s in addition to its thrice weekly flights on the Airbus A320 aircraft, and increased flight frequencies from three to four-times weekly to Balikpapan and Makassar, from October 2024. 

From November 2024, the E190-E2s will also operate nine-times weekly flights to Davao, an increase from seven-times weekly today, and from December 2024, four-times weekly flights to Vientiane, an increase from three-times weekly today.
