Singapore Airlines has announced plans to add more flights from London Heathrow using the carrier's A380 aircraft.

The international airline will increase the frequency of its existing flights from London to Singapore to allow more passengers to experience the luxury planes.

Additional flights to Singapore will be added on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, taking the number of services offered between the two cities to 11 per week.

"The A380 products have been very well received by our customers, and loads on the Singapore-London route have been exceptionally encouraging," said Huang Cheng Eng, executive vice president of marketing and regions at Singapore Airlines.

"The deployment of another A380 on this route will cater to continual strong demand from customers travelling between Singapore and London."

The new A380 will make a stop in China before moving to the London-Singapore route as part of the airline's plan to offer special flights to Beijing for the Olympic Games.
