Scoot is a Singaporean low-cost carrier that operates medium- and long-haul flights across Asia, Australia, Europe, and beyond. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Singapore Airlines Group and was established to serve price-sensitive travelers on routes that complement the main SIA network. The airline began operations in 2012 and merged with fellow Singapore Airlines subsidiary Tigerair in 2017, adopting the Scoot brand for all combined operations. This merger significantly expanded its route network and fleet size. Scoot is known for offering affordable base fares with optional add-ons for meals, baggage, and seat selection. It positions itself as a fun, youthful brand and operates primarily out of Singapore Changi Airport.
