Singapore Airlines will begin flying SIN-AUH-JED from March 1st using a 777-200, third time they are flying to AUH after quitting the market twice in the 80's and 90's.
Last airline from the far east to leave AUH was Royal Brunei a couple of years back.
Do China Airlines Cargo fly there?

Thai quit after The Tsunami...What's that about EY Capt Butt? Maybe that's why SQ jumped in now...why wait for EY to screw it up?...:ok:
