Singapore Airlines And Spain Tourism Board Sign MOU Under the agreement, both parties will jointly explore and implement activities to promote tourist traffic to Spain, by way of Singapore Airlines services between Singapore and Barcelona. Both have agreed to commit funds through to the end of this year to support advertising and promotional campaigns, as well as familiarisation programmes for trade and media, among other plans.
Spain is an important part of Singapore Airlines network and its growth in recent years has been promising. Since launching thrice-weekly flights to Barcelona in 2006 with Boeing 777-200ER aircraft, the service has been increased to seven times weekly, using Boeing 777-300ER aircraft fitted with the Airline newest cabin products. Beyond Barcelona, Singapore Airlines customers can connect to the Spanish cities of Bilbao, Madrid, and Palma de Mallorca on codeshare partner Spanair services. In March 2011, Barcelona also became Singapore Airlines gateway to its first South American destination Sao Paulo.
this agreement underscores our confidence in the potential and allure of Spain, as well as our commitment to developing and promoting tourism from Southeast Asia and other parts of the Asia Pacific to Spain,said Mr Tan Chik Quee, Singapore AirlinesSenior Vice President Marketing.

Key target markets under the agreement include Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, the Philippines and Singapore.
