SINGAPORE: Budget carrier Tiger Airways announced on Sunday it is
offering one-way fares of US$6 to its entire network of 10 cities
in six Southeast Asian countries.

The booking period starts on Monday through April 1 and is
valid for mid-week travel on Mondays to Thursdays from July 1
until Oct. 29.

The carrier, owned by Singapore Airlines (SIA), said that the
offer coincided with a celebration of the completion of its
"first-phase network expansion".

The airline is extending the low fares to all the cities it
covers including Singapore, Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Hatyai, Phuket,
Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Macau, Padang and Manila. Tiger is the
first budget airline to be granted landing rights for Padang, the
provincial capital of West Sumatra in Indonesia.

are based in Singapore. -- DPA
