Scoot, the low-cost arm of Singapore Airlines, have become the first carrier in Southeast Asia to operate the E2.

The E2 is the quietest and most fuel-efficient aircraft under 150 seats, supporting the airline’s business strategy of serving thinner routes to secondary and tertiary destinations from Singapore. Many of these have airports with runways less than 2,000 meters, which the E2, with its short runway landing capability, can handle with ease.
