The Singapore Airlines Group’s history dates back to 1947 with the launch of Malaysian Airways’ first flight. The carrier was later renamed Malaysian Airways, and later Malaysia-Singapore Airlines (MSA), which split into Singapore Airlines and Malaysian Airline System in 1972. Initially operating a fleet of 10 aircraft to 22 destinations, SIA has grown into a world-class international airline group, which remains committed to service excellence, product leadership and network connectivity.
