This is to meet demand from Irish technological and pharmaceutical customers.

From October 30, 2005, Singapore Airlines Cargo will add a new Singapore – Sharjah – London – Dublin – Dubai – Singapore service to the existing twice weekly Singapore – Sharjah – Dublin – Copenhagen - Dubai – Singapore services.

"With strong demand for airfreight into and out of Ireland, Singapore Airlines Cargo is delighted to demonstrate its commitment to this important market by increasing Singapore - Dublin - Singapore frequencies up to three a week," said Mr Alvin Tay, General Manager UK, Ireland and Scandinavia.

Singapore Airlines Cargo is the only airline operating direct flights from Ireland to Asia and the Middle East.

It'd be nice to think STN, but I know some other Singapore Cargo flights go into LHR so I'd guess it'll remain there.

Thanks. I know some Asian airlines keep all flights at LHR while others send cargo flights to STN. Didnt know which one SQ do

It's LHR,
I noticed a SQC arriving from LHR the other day and then planned out to Dubai, thought it was just a one off but obviously not :D

Passed through Dublin this afternoon at 1400 and the SQC 744 was sitting parked up beside the DHL A300.
