Calcutta will not have daily flights of Singapore Airlines (SIA) from March as the carrier has decided to withdraw its subsidiary, SilkAir, from the city.
SilkAir, which operates smaller, narrow body aircraft, flies three days a week between Calcutta and Singapore. The parent airline flies on the other four days.
Apart from SIA, IndiGo is the only airline that operates a daily flight between Calcutta and Singapore.
SilkAir will withdraw from Calcutta on March 29, which will coincide with Singapore Airlines increasing its flight count on the route by one.
