Fancy visiting a capital that’s rich with music and muse, or a city decorated with charming colonial churches? Scoot Airlines by Singapore now carries flight routes to Vienna of Austria, and Iloilo City of Philippines, starting as early as April 2025.
The low-cost carrier will commence its flights to Vienna starting 3 June 2025. Flights will run thrice weekly and will be operated on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, which holds 329 passengers in two cabins.
Meanwhile, flights to Iloilo City will commence from 14 April 2025 onwards, starting with initial frequency of twice a week and progressively to four times weekly. Flights here will be operated on the Embraer E190-E2 aircraft which seats 112 passengers.
One-way Economy Class fares start from MYR849 to Vienna, and MYR319 to Iloilo City. Meanwhile one-way ScootPlus (premium Economy) fares start from MYR2,299 to Vienna, all inclusive of taxes. The flight are available for booking via Scoot’s website, mobile app, and progressively through other channels.
Vienna is dubbed the City of Music for a reason. That is because it is the birthplace of classical music legends like Mozart and Strauss—fair reason to call Vienna a dream destination for those wanting to dive deep into the cultural aspects of the city. Not only that; Vienna is filled with majestic architectural charm, rich heritage and timeless artistic allure.
If you’re looking to enhance your Europe tour, Vienna is also blessed with a central location, so it’s an excellent gateway to explore Eastern Europe.
Vienna is also a great starting point for your next European adventures especially if you’re doing scenic road trips. Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, is just 50km away from Vienna Airport, whereas Budapest, Hungary and major cities in Czechia, Croatia, and Slovenia are all within a three-hour drive.
Just a stone throw away is Iloilo City, situated in the heart of the Philippine archipelago, also known as the biggest city in the Iloilo province.
Iloilo City is a little lively haven known for its Spanish-era churches and holds one of the largest religious festivals in the Philippines – the Dinagyang Festival. Aside from its bustling cityscape, visitors will want to drop by for its cultural charm and hidden gems waiting to be discovered, making it an attractive escapade for a short holiday.
Mr Leslie Thng, Chief Executive Officer of Scoot said, “As the only airline offering direct flights between Singapore and Vienna, we are thrilled to introduce this new service from June, just in time for the holidays. With the launch of direct flights to Iloilo City, we also hope to inspire our customers to explore more cities within South East Asia and embark on new travel experiences.”
In line with Scoot’s commitment to provide efficient operation at fair values, Scoot will adjust its network to better match capacity to demand and optimise aircraft deployment. This includes the suspension of operations to Berlin and Jinan after their last flights on 28 March and 28 February respectively.
Scoot will be reaching out to affected customers on providing necessary assistance to rebook or refund. For bookings made through travel agents or partner airlines, customers are advised to contact their travel agent or purchasing airline for assistance.
