Silk Air announced their intent to transfer the Singapore - Manado route to Scoot in the spring. It looks like Silk Air ends service on 5/4/2020 but I am still unable to find any information about Scoot's plans or schedule. Has anyone heard if this route will be discontinued or if Scoot intends to change the schedule?
I have been unimpressed with Scoot in other markets and I'm not sure divers coming into Manado will appreciate their strict baggage weight limits and fees. From North America, I think a connection through Shanghai, Hong Kong, or Taipei would be preferable to Singapore anyway, but I haven't heard of any new routes planned besides Davao. It looks like for now, I'll have to plan on going through Jakarta. Was looking at an early May trip to Lembeh and maybe another destination in the Maluku or Togean islands.
