EPASingapore Airlines will suspend its direct flight service from Houston to Moscow starting Oct. 30, 2016, according to a press release from the company.
The route will be replaced by extending Singapore-Manchester flights to Houston. These will be operated five times weekly.
"With the launch of the Singapore-Manchester-Houston service, existing Moscow-Houston and Munich-Manchester services will be suspended, from 30 October 2016," the company says.
Moscow will continue to be served on a direct basis to and from Singapore. Services to Moscow will be operated four times weekly.
The Singapore-Moscow-Houston flight was launched in 2008. For several years it was daily, but from 2011 it was operated just five times a week.
With the discontinuation of Singapore Airlines' nonstop Houston-Moscow service , there will be only two airlines (Delta and Aeroflot) that will offer direct flights from U.S. cities to Russia.
