SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) on Monday (Oct 23) signed two agreements that will enable more direct and quicker flight routes through greater collaboration between airspace regulators.
The letters of intent will advance air traffic management concepts that allow planes to take more direct routes, said CAAS, which manages Singapore’s airspace. This will cut flight distance and the time passengers spend in the air, which in turn will reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
