The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore and Changi Airport Group said that once the smog worsens further, they are preparing to implement relevant measures to ensure the safety of flight operations. Countermeasures include increasing the interval between take-off and landing flights, and turning on airport site lighting during the day to improve pilots' visibility on the airport ground. Regulators and airport operators say they are collaborating with airlines and trade unions to ensure the continued safe and efficient operation of Changi Airport and Seletar Airport, the main gateway to Singapore. From October 5 to 11, a total of 16 flights were diverted from Seletar Airport; some airlines chose to adjust or cancel flights according to the situation on site. In response to the email, Singapore Airlines stated that “safety is the primary consideration” and that “operations have not yet been affected.”
