Riau Air opens new flights to S'pore

JAKARTA: Riau Airlines on Tuesday began flights between the Riau
provincial capital Pekanbaru and Singapore, company officials
said.

A Fokker 50 aircraft will fly the route on Tuesdays, Thursdays
and Saturdays. Riau Airlines, which began operations in December
2002, is owned by the provincial administration and operates two
Fokker 50s.

It currently serves three routes linking Pekanbaru with other
islands in the province, including the Natuna islands in the
South China Sea. -- AFP
