Scoot
Singapore-based low-cost carrier serving regional and medium-haul routes, with a network built around its Singapore hub.
About Scoot
Scoot is a low-cost airline established in 2011 and launched commercially in 2012 as part of the Singapore Airlines Group. Its identity centres on providing lower-fare travel while allowing passengers to purchase optional extras separately. The airline name and supplied route profile correspond to Scoot’s early long-haul operation rather than the unrelated ATA Airlines identity included in the listing data.
Singapore is the airline’s primary hub and the centre of its network. Its 10 routes connect 6 destinations across 5 countries, with Bangkok, Gold Coast, Sydney, Taipei and Tianjin among the cities served. Bangkok, Gold Coast, Sydney and Taipei are also notable departure points, although Singapore supports the largest selection of routes and connecting opportunities.
The aircraft type associated with this route profile is the Boeing 777-200/200ER, a wide-body family used for medium- and long-haul services. As a low-cost carrier, Scoot separates the base fare from many optional services. Travellers may choose between a standard economy experience and upgraded seating or cabin products where offered, with inclusions determined by the selected fare or bundle.
Scoot is not a member of Star Alliance, SkyTeam or Oneworld, although its ownership within the Singapore Airlines Group creates useful commercial links with Singapore Airlines and other group carriers. Eligible travellers can earn or redeem KrisFlyer miles on qualifying Scoot bookings, subject to the fare type, booking channel and current programme rules.
Scoot’s principal strength is the ability to combine low base fares with nonstop wide-body travel on longer routes, including Singapore to Sydney. The trade-off is that baggage, meals, seat selection and other conveniences may cost extra, so headline fares are not always directly comparable with full-service tickets. Passengers should review the complete bundle and connection conditions before purchasing.
Good to know
Flying with Scoot — what to expect
Check Fare Inclusions
Scoot’s lowest fares may exclude checked baggage, meals and advance seat selection. Compare the final price after adding the services you need.
Baggage Varies
Cabin and checked-baggage entitlements depend on the fare and optional bundle purchased. Confirm the current weight, size and item limits shown on your booking before departure.
Meals Cost Extra
Food and drinks are generally paid extras in the low-cost model unless included in a bundle or upgraded product. Pre-ordering can provide better availability on longer flights.
Allow Connection Time
Singapore is the main connecting point for the network. Leave adequate time between flights, particularly when travelling on separate tickets that may not include through-checked baggage or disruption protection.
Wide-body Operations
The Boeing 777-200/200ER aircraft associated with these routes offers a twin-aisle layout. Seat features and spacing can differ by cabin and configuration, so check the seat map before paying for a preferred seat.
