Tigerair (TR, Singapore Changi) and Scoot (TZ, Singapore Changi) have disclosed an update on their current integration and merger process in an application to the United States Department of Transportation for a Foreign Air Carrier Permit (FACP). The two Singapore Airlines (SQ, Singapore Changi) subsidiaries are planning to complete the merger process by July 25 when Tigerair as the surviving entity will be rebranded as Scoot Tigerair (TR, Singapore Changi).
One B787-9 9V-OJF (msn 37119) and one B787-8 9V-OFG (msn 37123) each have already been transferred to the air operator's certificate (AOC) of Tigerair and are currently operating on a wet-lease basis on behalf of Scoot.
The merged budget operator, fully owned by Singapore Airlines through Budget Aviation Holdings and Tiger Airways Holdings, will operate a fleet of two A319-100s, twenty-one A320-200s, eight B787-8s and six B787-9s by July 25 operating on a single AOC.
In its FACP application, Tigerair says that it plans to operate a service from its Changi hub via Osaka Kansai to Honolulu after the merger is complete, following in the footsteps of AirAsia X (D7, Kuala Lumpur Int'l) which is launching its Kuala Lumpur-Osaka Kansai-Honolulu service on June 28, 2017.
