The war that started on 28 Feb 2026 is still ragging. It is even more dangerous now because the Iranian proxies like Hezbollah and Houthis have joined in the war against Israel and the US.
SIA may be grounded soon if the fighting continues and the Homuz Straits remains closed. Many will lose their jobs including the crew.
Just hope that there will be a diplomatic solution to the crisis. What do you all think??
John Lee our manager (former check steward) died 2 days ago at age 89. Cecilia Chua (former stewardess) and ground staff at SIA cabin crew training center died on 9 March 2026 which happened to be her 80th birthday.
The current war in the Middle East between Iran and Israel/USA is not good for SIA. The share price as I type is down 32 cents to $6.86 (-4.5%). In fact, the market has dropped significantly since the war has started 2 days ago.
It is a relief to see that SIA share price has gone up a bit to $7.02 (up 6 cents from yesterday's closing). It has not been doing too well recently but why??

Anyway BT, there's a report from ZaoPao about 73 yes old retired steward,who passed away due a toilet incident with another boomer.Stay updated.
I don't know what is the outcome of the CSS's complaint against her IFM and the 3 pilots regarding allegation of bullying etc.
My opinion is the pilots and IFM would have been asked to submit their testimonies. The result will be no one is guilty and case closed! What do you think?
Below is an extract of a chief stewardess's complaint against her IFM and pilots. The complaint is long and I only produced part of it. If you know the outcome of the company's investigation and subsequent action please put in the comment section below.
Ng Yak Keng was a low profile crew but all of a sudden he is in the limelight because of his retirement a few weeks ago. He is 67 and had served SIA for 46 years.
Soon when the crew retirement is extended to 70 years, he won't be the longest serving crew with SIA.
