In a Facebook post on Friday morning, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said that he is"delighted to hear that Australia will be allowing entry to visa holders from Singapore", adding that he had encouraged Mr Morrison to do so when he visited Singapore in June.

SIA regional vice-president Louis Arul said that the return of the A380 to Sydney underlines the airline's unwavering commitment to the Australian market. “With the NSW and Australian border opening up from Nov 1, the A380 will support even more Australians hoping to reconnect with loved ones ahead of the Christmas period," Mr Arul said.

Qantas will bring back two of its flagship Airbus A380 super-jumbos in April - three months earlier than planned - and is in talks with Boeing about the delivery of three new 787-9s in storage to accelerate its international flight plans, Reuters reported.
