Scoot, Tiger merger to be completed by July 25
From then on, Scoot website and call centre will be the sole booking platform
Singapore
THE merger between Scoot and Tigerair is slated for completion on July 25, after which Tigerair flights will operate under the Scoot banner.
Efforts to merge the two budget carriers - which are both owned by Singapore Airlines (SIA) - kicked off in May 2016, after the parent airline announced that the two low-cost carriers would be parked under a single holding company known as Budget Aviation Holdings. The move came shortly after the Singapore Exchange gave SIA the greenlight to delist Tiger Airways from the bourse in April last year.
