Singapore Airlines is set to launch flights to Madrid while increasing frequencies on multiple European routes, according to recent announcements and booking data.
The carrier currently offers no direct service from Singapore Changi to Madrid Barajas, with all flights requiring stopovers through partners including Etihad Airways, Lufthansa, Emirates, Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways, and others. Typical journeys cover 7,081 miles and take 14 hours 50 minutes to 16 hours 35 minutes in the air, excluding layovers.
Recent search data shows round-trip economy fares starting at SGD 1,504 from Singapore to Madrid and EUR 951 from Madrid to Singapore for dates in 2026. U.S. routes, such as New York Kennedy to Madrid, appear from $1,306 round-trip in September.
Alongside this, Singapore Airlines has expanded its European operations. Its network spans 14 destinations, including daily flights to London Heathrow and double daily to Frankfurt and Paris. For 2025, it plans daily service to London Gatwick, up from five weekly, creating five daily London flights total. Rome frequencies will rise to five weekly from June 26 to August 28, and Barcelona to five weekly direct from June 24 to September 7, replacing some Milan-Barcelona connections. Milan will gain daily service.
These changes support growing demand, with over 1.6 million passengers transiting through Changi to or from Europe in the year to October 2023.
