Today, Singapore Airlines has made some route changes on their services to Male, Maldives. From 30 October to 31 December 2022 and next summer, the A350-900XWB will operate 3 times weekly. The widebody will operate on SQ437 and SQ438 to cope with current demand. This is the first time that Singapore Airlines is sending the A350 to Maldives post-pandemic, with the last time being during 2018.
