Singapore and Malta have inked an Open Skies Agreement (OSA) that allows for full flexibility on air services operated by carriers of both countries. The OSA will enable Singapore carriers to operate flights as frequently as desired between Singapore and points in Malta, as well as beyond Malta to any other city in the world. Similarly, Maltese carriers will be able to operate any number of services to and beyond Singapore. The Singapore-Malta OSA will become fully effective on 1 December 2010.
With the Singapore - Malta OSA, Singapore has concluded OSAs with about 30 countries, including 15 in the European Union.
As at 1 August 2008, Changi Airport is served by 80 scheduled airlines operating more than 4,400 weekly scheduled flights to 191 cities in 61 countries.
