Singapore Airlines (SIA) has opened ticket sales for its route between Madrid and Singapore via Barcelona, marking its return to the Spanish capital after more than two decades without a direct connection. This link positions itself as a key strategic bridge for tourism and business between Spain, Southeast Asia, and the Southwest Pacific region.
The airline will operate five weekly frequencies structured on a route linking Singapore with Madrid via Barcelona.
This expansion is part of the company’s plan to progressively increase frequencies between major European metropolises, designed to meet growing passenger demand and boost global connectivity through its Singapore hub.
Flight Schedule and Itinerary
The route is scheduled to operate five weekly frequencies starting October 27, 2026, under the following timetable:
- Flight SQ388: Will depart Singapore at 23:30 (local time) on October 26, 2026. It will make a stopover in Barcelona, landing at 06:40 on October 27, before departing at 07:40 to mark its final arrival at Madrid Airport at 08:50 (local time) the same day.
