Singapore and Ukraine sign ASA
Singapore and Ukraine signed an air services agreement (ASA) to support air connectivity between both countries when the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s visited Singapore on 2 June 2024.

The ASA allows airlines of both parties to operate unlimited frequencies of cargo and passenger services utilising third and fourth freedom traffic rights between Singapore and any point in Ukraine, with no restrictions on capacity, routing, and aircraft type. The agreement also provides a more conducive regulatory and business framework for airlines to operate air services between the two countries. (cj)
