SilkAir's aircraft, the Boeing 737 Max 8, sits on the tarmac at Changi Airport. Singapore grounded the 737 MAX in March 2019 following two fatal crashes. China is the biggest market in the region that has yet to approve the return of the 737 MAX, though Boeing last month conducted test flights in the country. Singapore Airlines said on Monday it would continue to work closely with CAAS and other relevant regulators in the coming weeks to meet the requirements to return its 737 MAX planes to service. Further details on its 737 MAX operations will be announced at a later date, the airline added.
