British Airways has announced that the A380 will make a daily appearance on the Heathrow to Singapore route, from winter this year.
The airline already operates a double-daily flight from London to Singapore and the A380 flies three times a week on the route.
This will increase to a daily service from December 14th, 2015.
The winter A380 BA11 service will depart from Heathrow at 19:10 and the BA12 service will depart from Singapore Changi airport at 23:20, each day.
In addition, the airline also announced that it will be opening its newly refurbished lounge at Changi Airport Terminal 1 in summer 2015.

Stephen Humphreys, British Airways’ head of UK&I sales, said: “Scheduling the A380 on the Singapore route on a daily basis signals our commitment to the route and the region.
“It will allow us to fly even more customers from the UK to the Far East in style.”
Gwyneth Paltrow famously launched the A380 on the British Airways route to Singapore in October 2014.
The British Airways aircraft boasts four sophisticated cabins and 469 seats.
The airline currently has nine super jumbos in its fleet flying to Johannesburg, Hong Kong, Singapore, Washington and red carpet route, Los Angeles.
The aircraft will also commence flights to Miami from October 25 and British Airways’ tenth A380 will arrive in November, 2015.
