Scoot airlines seats review

Scoot airlines seats review Scoot currently operates the Boeing 787 dreamliners as well the Airbus 320 and both fleets offer different seats to cater to different needs of flyers. Standard seats Boeing 787 Airbus 320 As compared to other budget airlines/low cost carriers, the seats at Scoot airlines are considered quite roomy with an average seat pitch of 31" and width of 18". However, do note that there are no headrest for the standard seats as they are only offered in the "higher end" seats. So please bring along some cushion for your head if you are flying long haul. Super seats Super seats provides 30% more legroom with a 34" seat pitch and an adjustable headrest is included.

Scoot business class review

About Scoot Scoot is a low-cost carrier owned by Singapore Airlines (SIA). They focus on medium and long-haul routes with a fleet composed of Boeing 787s.  Buying ticket The difference in price between the economy fare and their business class (ScootBiz) is pretty small.

Scoot airlines review

Scoot's fleet Scoot currently operates a fleet of Boeing 787 after phasing out all of its Boeing 777 aircrafts acquired from Singapore Airlines (SIA).

Advantage of flying with Scoot Prices are often competitive and they often have promotions with prices that are almost unbeatable. Do check out their Facebook page for upcoming promotions.

Just choose your desired dates of travel, indicate your origin and destination and they will display the prices for neighbouring dates (plus point) as well a
