  Singapore Airlines has come a long way since our founding in 1972, evolving from a regional airline to 1 of the very most respected travel brands around the world. We fly one of the youngest aircraft fleets in the world to locations spanning a network spread over six continents, with our Singapore Girl as our internationally-recognisable image giving the high standards of care and support that clients have come to expect of us.
  We have produced a practice of leading the way, and on the way developed a reputation for being a market trendsetter. Our evergrowing list of business - leading innovations includes the following firsts:
  First to give free headsets, a selection of meals and free beverages in Economy Class, in the 1970s
  Satellite-based inflight telephones to be introduced by first in 1991
  First to involve a complete panel of world-renowned chefs, the International Culinary Panel, in developing inflight meals in 1998
  First to provide sound and video on demand (AVOD) capabilities on KrisWorld in all classes in October 2001
  First to operate the world's longest nonstop commercial flight between Singapore and Los Angeles in February 2004 on the A340-500, and then surpassing the record (in terms of distance) after that year with the non stop service to New York (Newark), in June 2004
  Oct 2007 first to fly the A380 from Singapore to Sydney on 25
  Singapore Airlines Limited (SIA) (Malay: Syarikat Penerbangan Singapura; Chinese: ; pinyin: Xinjiapo Hangkong Gongsi, abbreviated ; Tamil:  ) (SGX: C6L) is the flag carrier and 5-star airline of Singapore. Singapore Airlines operates a hub at Changi Airport and features a powerful presence in the Southeast Asia, East Asia, South Asia, and "Kangaroo Route" markets. The company also runs trans-Pacific flights, including the planet's two longest non-stop commercial flights from Singapore to Newark and Los Angeles on the Airbus A340-500. Singapore Airlines carried around 18 million passengers in 2012, up from 16.9 million in 2011.
  Singapore Airlines was the launch customer of Airbus A380, currently the world's biggest passenger plane. SIA has diversified airline related businesses, such as aircraft handling and engineering. Its wholly owned subsidiary, SilkAir, manages regional flights to secondary towns with smaller capacity requirements. Subsidiary Singapore Airlines Cargo runs SIA's dedicated freighter fleet, and manages the cargo hold ability in SIA's passenger plane. SIA once had a 49% shareholding in Virgin Atlantic. It also engages the low cost carrier sector through its stake in Tiger Airways and wholly owned subsidiary, Scoot. It ranks between the utmost effective 15 carriers worldwide in terms of revenue passenger kilometres, and 10th in the world for international passengers carried. On 15 December 2010, Singapore Airlines was declared by the International Air Transport Association as the second biggest airline in the world by market capitalisation with a value of 14 billion US dollars. Singapore Airlines is now the official sponsor of Singapore national soccer team. The airline has been promoting Singapore Girl as principal image to the airline's brand.
  The airline's first flight was a chartered flight from the British Straits Settlement of Singapore to Kuala Lumpur on 2 April 1947 using an Airspeed Consul twinengined plane.
  Normal weekly scheduled flights instantly followed from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh and Penang from 1 May 1947 with the same plane type.
  
  In 1966, following Singapore's separation from the federation, the airline's name was changed again, to MalaysiaSingapore Airlines (MSA).

The next year found a rapid growth in the airline's fleet and course, including the purchase of MSA's first Boeing plane, the Boeing 707s, as well the finish of a recent high rise headquarters in Singapore. Boeing 737s were added to the fleet shortly after.
