Singapore Airlines to connect Brits to new Uluru routes
Harry KembleNew Virgin Australia flights to Uluru will dovetail “seamlessly” with Singapore Airlines’ schedule from the UK in 2024.
The two direct services to the Red Centre from Melbourne and Brisbane will launch on 6 June and 7 June respectively.
It will be the first time Virgin Australia has ever operated Uluru flights from Brisbane and Melbourne. The carrier did operate Sydney-Uluru flights before the pandemic.
The new flights dovetail with Singapore Airlines services from London, providing “excellent connectivity” to the Red Centre from the UK.
Singapore Airlines’ UK and Ireland general manager Mohamed Rafi Mar said: “As Australia’s most frequent visitor, with over 110 weekly flights to seven gateways in the country, we are delighted to offer even more choice to the land down under.
“The reinstated Melbourne and Brisbane services to Uluru with Virgin Australia dovetail perfectly into our schedule, allowing customers to make one seamless booking on Singapore Airlines.
“There has never been a better time to visit this iconic destination.”
The new Virgin Australia services will also support the growth of the Indigenous tourism sector, contributing more than $3 billion to visitor expenditure in the Northern Territory.
