Singapore Airlines used to operate two of the longest flights in the world, both direct flights from Singapore to Los Angeles and Newark with Airbus A340-500 aircraft. All A340-500 were phased out in 2013 and direct flights to both destinations have been terminated. Nonstop service to Los Angeles was terminated on 20 October 2013 (the airline continues to serve Los Angeles from Singapore via Tokyo-Narita) and nonstop service to Newark was terminated on 23 November 2013 in favour of the Singapore-New York JFK route via Frankfurt.
In October 2016, Singapore Airlines restarted its nonstop service from Singapore to the USA with the launch of its new Singapore-San Francisco route. The route flies A350-900 aircraft and includes Business, Premium Economy and Economy classes.
Singapore Airlines also operates flights between Singapore and Wellington via Canberra. This route is also known as the Capital Express, though this will be replaced in May 2018 with a Singapore-Melbourne-Wellington service. Flights to Canberra will be replaced with a route via Sydney.
