SINGAPORE – Budget carrier Scoot has operated its first flights using its new Airbus A321neo aircraft, having received three of the planes last month.

TR610 departed Singapore at about 3.20pm on Monday (June 28) and was set to land in Bangkok about 2½ hours later. The return flight, TR611, was scheduled to depart Bangkok later in the evening and land in Singapore at about 9pm.

Scoot, the budget arm of Singapore Airlines (SIA), declined to say how many passengers were on the flights, citing commercial sensitivity.
