The team demonstrated great grit and dedication in ensuring that Singapore Airlines’ flights and smooth flight operations continued. One of their achievements was handling 175 flights without significant delays during the country’s crisis, showcasing the SIA Colombo team’s dedication and hard work.
In the opening address, Goh Choon Phong, CEO of Singapore Airlines, stated, “Please continue to inspire others to achieve these high standards of service innovation, teamwork, and leadership, so we may continue to Soar As One”.
