Please copy bengleng_teh@flyscoot.com as well.
a. For either Round-Trip (SINCAN vv) or One-Way (SINCAN) TR sector, station will need to enter e.g. ‘CAN800’ in the tour code, where SGD800 represents the quote for one TR sector.
b. If the group itinerary involves Open Jaw TR sectors, e.g. SINHKT//HDYSIN on TR, please enter e.g. ‘HKT080 HDY120’ (with a space in between).
5. Station to create booking with tour code inserted.

7. PSH to follow up Finance on the applicable tour codes.
If stations indicate they are unsure how to indicate the tour code, please redirect them to SQ NRM for advice.
Approval time
• TR turnaround time for request approval – 3 days.
• If TR rejects the flight with UC status due to lack of seat availability, as per current rebooking process, SQ station needs to delete the UC flight and request for an alternative flight in the PNR.
Ticketing time limit / Hold period in Navitaire
• Booking made before 14 days to departure, TTL is 14 days to departure.
• Bookings made on/less than 14 days to departure, TTL is the next 24 hours.
Note: Once TTL is up, all segments (including SQMI) will be cancelled in Navitaire.
If an extension is required, please be reminded to do so in Navitaire.
• SOT can extend the hold time to 14 days before departure manually in Sky Speed, then add a comment and tick the share booking source check box for the system to generate an OTHS free text line in the teletype.
Names in deadline
• 14 days before departure for both TR and SQ/MI.
Materialisation
• The minimum group size and TCP is 10pax for all TR flights, similar to SQ/MI.
• For JED, if there is a split PNR that results in a group size less than 10 (TCP still must be 10 or more), station should send their request to sales@flyscoot.com and cc groups_SQ@singaporeair.com.sg
Rectification
• TR: sales@flyscoot.com
• SQ/MI: groups_SQ@singaporeair.com.sg
TR schedule changes/cancellation
• TR Scheduling will send the list of affected PNRs to Guest Relations and SOT at every schedule change/cancellation. SOT to notify the group/travel agency accordingly.
