{{main|Corporate affairs of Singapore Airlines}}
Singapore Airlines began as "Malayan Airways Limited" in [[1946]], mounting its first flight on the 1st of May, 1947. It started off flying an [[Airspeed Consul]] twin engined airplane between Singapore and [[Kuala Lumpur]], [[Ipoh]], and [[Penang]] (two cities and an island in [[West Malaysia]]).
 
Singapore Airlines is majority-owned by the [[Government of Singapore|Singapore government]]'s investment and [[holding company]] [[Temasek Holdings]], which holds 55% of voting stock as of 31 March 2020.<ref name="2014annualreport">{{cite web |year=2020 |title=Temasek Holdings' Major Investments Portfolio |url=https://www.temasek.com.sg/en/what-we-do/our-portfolio/transportation-industrials |access-date=28 December 2020 |website=Temasek |archive-date=14 February 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210214071803/https://www.temasek.com.sg/en/what-we-do/our-portfolio/transportation-industrials |url-status=live}}</ref>
The remainder of the [[1940s]] was a growth period for Malayan Airlines, as was the [[1950s]]. [[World War II]] had just finished and people around the world wanted to travel, a privilege that they had sometimes been denied because of the situation worldwide during previous years, and residents of Singapore and [[Malaysia]] were no exception. By [[1955]], Malayan Airlines' fleet had grown to include a large number of Douglas [[DC-3]]s.
 
Nevertheless, while the government holds a [[golden share]] via the country's [[Ministry of Finance (Singapore)|Ministry of Finance]], it stressed its non-interference in the management of the company, a point emphasised by [[Lee Kuan Yew]] when he said the Singapore Changi Airport's front-runner status as an aviation hub is more important than SIA.<ref>{{cite news |title=Singapore moves to defend air-hub status as no-frills rivalry heats up |newspaper=USA Today |date=7 April 2005 |url=https://www.usatoday.com/travel/news/2004-04-07-singapore-hub_x.htm |access-date=1 September 2007 |archive-date=23 April 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100423165540/http://www.usatoday.com/travel/news/2004-04-07-singapore-hub_x.htm |url-status=live}}</ref> However, he was personally involved in easing tensions between the company and its pilots in the early 2000s,<ref>{{cite web |publisher=LittleSpeck.Com |title=A lot more active |date=12 November 2006 |url=http://www.littlespeck.com/content/politics/CTrendsPolitics-061112.htm |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120216091606/http://www.littlespeck.com/content/politics/CTrendsPolitics-061112.htm |archive-date=16 February 2012 }}</ref> warned the airline to cut costs, and made public his advice to the airline to divest from its subsidiary companies.<ref>{{cite web |work=The Taipei Times |title=SIA could lag as challengers rise |date=15 January 2004 |url=http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/worldbiz/archives/2004/01/15/2003087724 |access-date=12 January 2007 |archive-date=25 May 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100525220047/http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/worldbiz/archives/2004/01/15/2003087724 |url-status=live}}</ref>
In [[1963]], the creation of the [[History of Malaysia|Federation of Malaysia]] brought a change of name, to "Malaysian Airways". In [[1966]], the name was changed again, this time to "[[Malaysia-Singapore Airlines]]" (MSA), following Singapore's departure from the [[Federation of Malaysia]] the previous year.

MSA ceased operations in [[1972]], when political disagreements between Singapore and Malaysia resulted in the formation of two new airlines: Singapore Airlines and [[Malaysia Airlines]]. Singapore's airline company had 10 aircraft at that time. However, Singapore Airlines' hostesses continued to wear the ''sarong kebaya'' dress, which had previously been used by MSA. While airlines in Western countries shied away from recruiting young women, Singapore Airlines promoted the image of the 'Singapore Girl' in its advertising.
 
In November 2022, [[Tata Group]] reached an agreement with Singapore Airlines, in which the joint-venture Indian full-service carrier Vistara merged with Tata-owned Air India to form a single entity with an expanded network and broader fleet. The merger officially took place on 12 November 2024, with Air India as the surviving company. Singapore Airlines now holds a 25.1% stake in the company.<ref>{{Cite web |date=11 November 2024 |title=Air India-Vistara: India's luxury airline flies into the sunset |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5ygp1w5eq7o |access-date=12 November 2024 |website=BBC News |language=en-GB}}</ref>
===Modern History===
Singapore Airlines saw rapid growth. during the [[1970s]], adding many cities in the [[Indian subcontinent]] and [[Asia]] to the 22 city network it already served, and acquiring [[Boeing 747]] airplanes. During the [[1980s]], the [[United States]], [[Canada]], and many [[European]] cities joined Singapore Airlines' route map. During this time, [[Madrid, Spain|Madrid]] became the first and only [[Hispanic]] city to be served by Singapore Airlines. In the [[1990s]], Singapore Airlines began flights to [[Johannesburg]] in [[South Africa]], the first [[Africa]]n destination for the airline, with the cities of [[Cape Town]] and [[Durban]] being added.
 
In November 2024, Singapore Airlines said it was feeling the impact of the aviation industry’s widespread supply-chain issues, estimating it is likely to have five fewer aircraft than planned by the end of the 2024 fiscal year, with 204 jets in fleet, due to delivery delays.<ref name="Lee-2024">{{Cite news |last=Lee |first=Danny |date=11 November 2024 |title=Singapore Air vows to expand capacity despite rising competition |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-11/singapore-air-vows-to-expand-capacity-despite-rising-competition?srnd=homepage-uk&embedded-checkout=true |access-date=12 November 2024 |work=[[Bloomberg News|Bloomberg]]}}</ref>
During the [[1990s]], Singapore Airlines licensed [[model aeroplane]] companies like [[Schabak]], [[Wooster|Wooster plastic aeroplanes]], [[Herpa Wings]] and many others, to manufacture promotional plane models for them. Their Boeing 747's became known as the ''Megatops'', and they ordered [[Boeing 777]] and [[Airbus]] equipment to complement the ''Megatops''.
 
=== Business trends ===
In [[2004]], Singapore Airlines began direct flights from [[Singapore]] to [[Los Angeles International Airport]] in [[California]] and [[Newark Liberty International Airport]] in [[Newark, New Jersey]]. This marked the first ever non-stop air service between [[Singapore]] and the [[United States of America]], using their [[A340-500]] aircraft. Currently, with a total flight time of 18 hours, the flight between Singapore and Newark is also the longest passenger air service offered by any airline in the world.
The key trends for Singapore Airlines are (as of the financial year ending 31 March):<ref>{{Cite web |title=Singapore Airlines - Annual Reports |url=https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/sg/about-us/information-for-investors/annual-report/ |access-date=12 August 2024 |website=Singapore Airlines}}</ref>{{Efn|from 2022 including Silk Air}}<!-- Figures are for the airline Singapore Airlines, not for the Singapore Airlines Group -->

===Branding===
In [[2005]], The airline unveiled the advertisting campaign to promote itself as the world's first [[A380-800]] double-decker super jumbo, due to take in the 2nd quarter of [[2006]] on Singapore-London, Singapore-Sydney.

Branding and publicity efforts have revolved primarily around flight crew,<ref>{{cite book |author=Loizos Heracleous, Jochen Wirtz and Nitin Pangarkar |title=Flying High in a Competitive Industry: Cost-effective Service Excellence at Singapore Airlines |publisher=McGraw-Hill |year=2006 |isbn=978-0-07-124964-5 |page=217}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last=Heracleous |first=Loizos |title=Flying High in a Competitive Industry&nbsp;– Secrets of the World's Leading Airline |year=2009 |publisher=McGraw-Hill |___location=Singapore |isbn=978-0-07-128196-6 |page=256}}</ref> in contrast to most other airlines, who tend to emphasise aircraft and services in general. In particular, the promotion of its female flight attendants known as [[Singapore Girl]]s has been widely successful and is a common feature in most of the airline's advertisements and publications.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Chan |first=Daniel |date=1 August 2000 |title=The story of Singapore Airlines and the Singapore Girl |journal=Journal of Management Development |volume=19 |issue=6 |pages=456–472 |doi=10.1108/02621710010372873 |issn=0262-1711}}</ref>
== Incidents and Accidents ==
 
The Singapore Airlines logo is a stylise bird, which has no relation to the Keris. The keris which originated in Malayan Airways days is a legacy central in Singapore Airlines' branding, such as the SilverKris lounge, Krisflyer and the KrisWorld entertainment system. The logo has remained unchanged since Singapore Airlines' inception from the split of [[Malaysia–Singapore Airlines]], except for a minor tweak in 1987.<ref>"Mr SIA Fly Past: Introducing the life and times of a legend- Lim Chin Beng- who was instrumental in the creation of Singapore Airlines" (2015) by Ken Hickson; {{ISBN|978-981-4596-44-2}}. Chapter 4 Foreword</ref>
On [[26 March]], [[1991]], [[Singapore Airlines Flight 117]], piloted by Captain Stanley Lim on a flight from [[Kuala Lumpur]] to [[Singapore]], was hijacked in mid-flight by four Pakistanis, led by Zahid Hussain Soomro, demanding that the plane be flown to [[Sydney]]. The crisis ended at [[Singapore Changi Airport]], where all four were killed by SAF Commandos, with none of the 123 passengers and crew suffering injury or death.
 
===Corporate livery===
On [[19 December]], [[1997]], [[Silkair Flight 185]], piloted by Captain [[Tsu Way Ming]], plunged into the [[Musi River]] in [[Sumatra]] during a routine flight from [[Jakarta]] to [[Singapore]] killing 104 people on board.

====Original MSA livery (1966–1972)====
On [[31 October]], [[2000]], [[Singapore Airlines Flight 006]], flying on a [[Singapore Changi Airport]], [[Singapore]]-[[Chiang Kai Shek International Airport]],[[Taipei, Taiwan]]-[[Los Angeles International Airport]],[[Los Angeles, California]] route, crashed during takeoff from Taipei for its second leg, killing 79 passengers and 3 crew members.
In May 1966, Malaysian Airways (MAL) became [[Malaysia–Singapore Airlines]] (MSA).<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/us/flying-withus/our-story/our-heritage/ |title=Our Heritage – Singapore Airlines |website=Singapore Airlines |access-date=27 March 2019 |archive-date=28 March 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190328023219/https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/us/flying-withus/our-story/our-heritage/ |url-status=live}}</ref> The original MSA livery features a yellow MSA logo on the vertical stabiliser and a black nose, with a white and grey [[fuselage]]. All aircraft in this original livery have been repainted or retired.{{fact|date=March 2024}}
 
====Second-generation livery (1972–1987)====
On [[19 April]], [[2005]], a [[Singapore Airlines]] [[Boeing 777]]-200 stopped approximately 194 meters beyond a painted stop line at Bangkok International Airport, and it's left wing-tip was clipped by a Thai Airways taxiing for take-off.
Following the spinoff of [[Malaysia-Singapore Airlines]], Singapore Airlines introduced a second-generation livery features a blue and yellow strip on the windows on the white fuselage, with the stylised bird logo in yellow.<ref>{{cite news |author=Ahmad Mohd Don |title=Singapura pileh nama SIA |language=ms |url=https://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/newspapers/digitised/article/beritaharian19720701-1.2.2 |newspaper=[[Berita Harian (Singapore)|Berita Harian]] |date=1 July 1972 |page=1}}</ref> The word "Singapore Airlines" was stylised in italics.
 
====Third-generation livery (1987–present)====
== Subsidiaries and Alliances ==
The current livery has only some minor changes, and the gold-blue colour scheme and the bird logo have been retained. In the change to the current livery, the yellow rear fuselage was changed to metallic gold with a new orange line added above it. The same orange line was also added behind the bird logo. The font typeface of the word "Singapore Airlines" was modified.{{fact|date=March 2024}}
 
However, in 2005, the livery received a minor update where the "Singapore Airlines" wording was enlarged and shifted closer towards the front of the aircraft, and the bird logo was also enlarged. The blue/gold sections of the tail is cut horizontally. The first set of windows are also no longer left out from the blue/gold/yellow strip. The engine logos were also subsequently removed since October 2007.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Kingsley-Jones |first=Max |title=PICTURES: SIA drops plans for logos on A380's engine nacelles |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/pictures-sia-drops-plans-for-logos-on-a380s-engine-nacelles/76667.article |access-date=25 January 2025 |website=Flight Global |language=en}}</ref>

A new seat with slight changes was announced to be retrofitted on Singapore Airlines's A380 and eventually become available on newer versions of their A350 and 787 aircraft. Features include more legroom and back support, a six-way adjustable headrest, and foldable wings. The Economy Class seat also features a more contemporary fabric seat cover design. The screen size remains the same, yet handsets from the previous iteration of seats have been removed.<ref>{{cite web |title=Singapore Airlines' New Cabin Products To Redefine Premium Air Travel |url=https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/np/media-centre/press-release/article/?q=en_UK/2017/October-December/ne2117-171102 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20241109121448/https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/np/media-centre/press-release/article/?q=en_UK/2017/October-December/ne2117-171102 |archive-date=9 November 2024 |access-date=9 November 2024}}</ref>

A redesign of the economy class seat was unveiled on 9 July 2013 alongside new first and business class products. Features include {{convert|32|in|cm|adj=on}} of legroom, slimmer seats, an adjustable [[headrest]], and an {{convert|11.1|in|cm|adj=on}} touch-screen [[inflight entertainment]] system which is also controllable with a video touch-screen handset as well as brand new KrisWorld software. The new seats were originally announced to be available exclusively onboard factory-fresh Airbus A350-900 and refitted Boeing 777-300ER.<ref name="www.singaporeair.com"/>
Singapore Airlines operates one of the youngest fleets in Asia. Its streamlined fleet features aircraft from just 3 aircraft families, including the [[Boeing 747]], the [[Boeing 777]], and the [[Airbus A340]].
 
The previous generation economy class seats on unrefitted [[Airbus A380|Airbus A380-800]], and [[Airbus A330-300]] are {{convert|19|in|cm|abbr=on}} wide, have in-seat power and have a {{convert|10.6|in|cm|adj=on}} personal television screen which has a non-intrusive reading light under it, which can be used by folding the screen outwards.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/flying-with-us/economy-listing/neweconomy/ |title=Singapore Airlines Redesigned Economy Class |access-date=20 July 2011 |publisher=Singapore Airlines |archive-date=24 August 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110824040152/http://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/flying-with-us/economy-listing/neweconomy |url-status=live}}</ref> These are configured 3-4-3 on the lower deck of the Airbus A380, 3-3-3 on the Boeing 777, and 2-4-2 on the Airbus A330, as well as the upper deck of the Airbus A380.<ref>{{cite news |title=Singapore Airlines to introduce Airbus A330 on Australian routes |publisher=PopSci.Com.Au |date=23 January 2009 |url=http://www.popsci.com.au/military-aviation-amp-space/article/2009-01/singapore-airlines-introduce-airbus-a330-australian-routes |access-date=23 January 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090122204735/http://popsci.com.au/military-aviation-amp-space/article/2009-01/singapore-airlines-introduce-airbus-a330-australian-routes |archive-date=22 January 2009 |url-status=dead}}</ref> Other features include an independent cup-holder (separate from the fold-out table), a [[USB]] port, and a power socket, as well as an [[iPod]] port exclusively on board the [[Airbus A330]].
It is the launch customer for the [[Airbus A380]]-800, and will be the first airline in the world to operate it when it comes into service in the second quarter of [[2006]]. It has 10 of these aircraft on order and options on a further 15 aircraft. It plans to introduce it on its Kangaroo route services from Sydney to London via its base at Changi Airport (ref: Airliner World, March 2005).
 
Singapore Airlines introduced a similar design on board the Boeing 777 aircraft through its ongoing cabin retrofit program. The [[Boeing 777|Boeing 777–300]] was the first model to undergo refit and had introduced the product on the Singapore–Sydney route on 22 July 2009.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.singaporeair.com/jsp/cms/en_UK/press_release_news/ne090716.jsp |title=Singapore Airlines Launches B777 Cabin Renewal Programme |access-date=24 April 2015 |archive-date=19 May 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150519214613/http://www.singaporeair.com/jsp/cms/en_UK/press_release_news/ne090716.jsp |url-status=live}}</ref> They are equipped with slightly smaller 9-inch screens (which are, however, larger than the 6.1-inch VGA screens on unrefitted aircraft) and AVOD in each seat. The seats are installed onboard all B777-200ERs and all but one B777-200.

===NotesCatering===
[[File:SQ Business Class starter.jpg|thumb|An appetiser served in Singapore Airlines' Business Class]]
Singapore Airlines offers a wide array of food options on each flight. Regional dishes are often served on their respective flights, such as the ''Kyo-Kaiseki'', ''Shi Quan Shi Mei'', and ''Shahi Thali'' meals, available for first-class passengers on flights to Japan, China and India, respectively.
 
SIA has also introduced the Popular Local Fare culinary programme offering local favourites to passengers in all classes flying from selected destinations. The dishes featured in this programme include Singaporean "hawker" fare such as ''[[Teochew porridge]]'', ''[[Mee pok|bak chor mee]]'', ''[[Hainanese chicken rice]]'', and ''[[Satay]]'' (meat skewers) on certain routes.
*Contrary to popular belief, all of Singapore Airlines' 777-212s are the Extended Range (ER) models; featuring center fuel tanks for maximum storage. The airline however chooses to only refer to the 9V-SV* registered series of aircraft as 777-200ERs as those planes are certified to 656,000lb Maximum Takeoff Weights (MTOWs) and fly the longer intercontinental routes. The 9V-SR* and 9V-SQ* registered aircraft feature derated engines which can be electronically reprogrammed to produce more thrust and thus operate longer flights at higher MTOWs if ever needed.

*6 of the [[Boeing 747|Boeing 747-400s]] were withdrawn from regular operation since the [[Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome|SARS]] crisis in the year 2003. Another 2 will be withdrawn later, and all 8 will be sold to two airlines from the year 2006 to 2008, after being converted into freighters. There is a possibility they may be transferred to [[Singapore Airlines Cargo]], as an addition to its strong 14 B747-412F fleet dubbed MegaArk.
 
Passengers in Suites, First and Business class may choose to use the "Book the Cook" service, where specific dishes may be selected in advance from a more extensive menu. Premium Economy class passengers may also choose to use the "Premium Economy Book the Cook". This service is only available on selected flights.<ref name="Book"/>
*The [[Boeing 777]] planes on order/option can be for any model in the aircraft family type (except for the [[Boeing 777|Boeing 777-300ER]], which were part of a separate order signed in August 2004)
 
===In-flight entertainment===
*The airline has a history of dubbing its fleet according to plane makes. The existing 29 [[Boeing 747|Boeing 747-400s]] are dubbed "Megatop", while the 55 [[Boeing 777|Boeing 777s]] are called "Jubilee".

KrisWorld is Singapore Airlines' [[in-flight entertainment]] system, introduced in 1997 on Boeing 747–400, Airbus A310-300, Airbus A340-300 and Boeing 777–200 aircraft.<ref>{{cite web |title=Singapore Airlines Launches World's First Inflight Entertainment System to Offer Both Audio and Video on Demand |url=http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Singapore+Airlines+Launches+World's+First+Inflight+Entertainment...-a019759106 |publisher=Business Wire |access-date=31 December 2012 |archive-date=3 April 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150403090412/http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Singapore+Airlines+Launches+World's+First+Inflight+Entertainment...-a019759106 |url-status=live}}</ref> KrisWorld overhauled Singapore Airlines' in-flight experience with a new, cheaper entertainment solution that would supersede the primitive Thales entertainment systems on offer at that time by [[Virgin Atlantic]] and [[Emirates (airline)|Emirates]].
 
The original KrisWorld provided 14 movies, 36 television programmes, and five cartoons, as well as many [[Super NES]] games, KrisFone and fax, text news and flight path in all classes. The original KrisWorld was subsequently upgraded to feature Wisemen 3000, an audio and video-on-demand version of the KrisWorld system featured exclusively in First and Raffles Class cabins, then progressively introduced into Economy Class in 747 cabins and selected 777 cabins.<ref>{{cite web |title=Developing a competitive edge A Singapore Airlines case study |url=http://businesscasestudies.co.uk/singapore-airlines/developing-a-competitive-edge/developing-competitive-advantage.html |publisher=The Times 100 |access-date=31 December 2012 |archive-date=30 January 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130130042819/http://businesscasestudies.co.uk/singapore-airlines/developing-a-competitive-edge/developing-competitive-advantage.html |url-status=live}}</ref>

In 2002, Singapore Airlines introduced a re-branding of the KrisWorld system. Named Enhanced KrisWorld, it featured additional movies, television programming, music and games, and was installed on [[Boeing 747-400]] and selected [[Boeing 777-200]] aircraft. [[Connexion by Boeing]], an in-flight Internet service, was introduced in 2005. Live television streaming was proposed on Connexion, but this service was discontinued in December 2006.

* 31 October 2000 – [[Singapore Airlines Flight 006|Flight 006]], a [[Boeing 747-400]] registered as 9V-SPK, attempted to take off on the wrong runway at [[Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport]] (previously Chiang Kai-shek International Airport) while departing for [[Los Angeles International Airport]]. It collided with the construction equipment that was parked on a closed runway, killing 83 of the 179 on board and injuring a further 71 people. This was the first fatal accident involving a Singapore Airlines aircraft. The aircraft 9V-SPK was painted in a "Tropical" promotional livery at the time of the accident. The only other aircraft painted with the promotional [[livery]], another 747-400 registered 9V-SPL, was immediately repainted with standard Singapore Airlines livery.
* 12 March 2003 – A [[Boeing 747-400]] operating as Singapore Airlines Flight 286 from [[Auckland International Airport]] to [[Changi Airport]] was involved in a tailstrike while taking off from Auckland's Runway 23L, causing severe damage to the aircraft's tail and damaging the APU (Auxiliary Power Unit), causing in-flight APU fire warnings. The flight returned to Auckland with no fatalities or serious injuries on board. The cause was later determined to be an error in the pilots' calculations of the aircraft's takeoff weight and reference speeds, which caused the pilots to [[Rotation (aeronautics)|rotate]] the aircraft prematurely.
* 27 June 2016 – Singapore Airlines Flight 368, a [[Boeing 777-300ER]] registered as 9V-SWB with 222 passengers and 19 crew on board, suffered an engine oil leak during a flight from Singapore to Milan. The oil-leak alarm was sounded above Malaysia, two hours into the flight.
