When you hear “Singapore Airlines,” you first thought probably isn’t a flight between Texas and northern England. And soon enough, that route will go away.

Singapore Airlines is adjusting its schedule, ending service between Houston and Manchester in early 2025. Here’s what you need to know.

End of Singapore Airlines Route Between Houston and Manchester

Singapore Airlines currently operates a fifth-freedom flight between Houston (IAH) and Manchester (MAN) 5 times weekly in each direction. Those flights will continue through March 30, 2025. Starting April 1, 2025, you’ll need to explore other flight options between these cities.

Interestingly, Singapore Airlines increased the frequency of these flights in early 2024, jumping from 3 times to 5 times weekly. Apparently, this route isn’t working out for the airline. Rather than reducing frequency, the route is going away completely as part of the airline’s realignment plans.

“Singapore Airlines regularly reviews our network and routes to align our capacity with demand. These adjustments, ahead of next summer, cater to the higher demand to several destinations, particularly during the traditional mid-year peak travel season, enabling our customers to confidently make their 2025 travel plans. We look forward to connecting our customers to the world with SIA’s extensive network, and delivering an unparalleled travel experience.”

Mr. Dai Haoyu, Acting Senior Vice President Marketing Planning, Singapore Airlines

Until the Manchester-Houston service ends on March 30, 2025, it will continue to be operated by Singapore Airlines’ A350 aircraft.

Other Routing Options Going Forward

Singapore Airlines is the only airline offering nonstop service between Houston and Manchester. Starting April 1, 2025, you’ll need to take a connecting flight when traveling between these cities.

In terms of connecting airports, more than a dozen options exist for a 1-stop itinerary between these cities. While it’s bad news that you won’t have nonstop options going forward, the silver lining is that 1-stop options are plentiful.

Bottom Line:

Unless another airline starts offering service on this route, no nonstop options will exist in April 2025.

Final Thoughts

Singapore Airlines will continue operating its Airbus A350 aircraft 5 times per week between Houston and Manchester through March 30. As of April 1, 2025, service will end, meaning travelers between these cities will need to explore other options, adding a connection somewhere along the way.
