Recommendations to Management
While performing the SWOT analysis, the several key issues are to be recommended to the management. These recommendations are intended to assist the Singapore Airlines in in keeping its pre-eminent position as it continue strives to be one of the best airline companies in the Todays airline industry.
The Singapore Airlines needs to keep its superiority and stay on top of the competition in the international market, despite the bad times associated with a global economy or strategies implemented by main competitors.
The Singapore Airlines needs to thoroughly understand the plans being pursued by the British Airways, Cathay Pacific, and Virign Atlantic in improving the comfort and quality of service it provides to its customers. The Singapore Airlines needs to continue differentiate itself by examining the strengths/weaknesses, and key points of these and other competitive airlines.

Singapore Airlines should differentiate themselves even more by improving media and communication channels thus improving the overall communication plan.
One of the business strategies to be developed is to increase communication services and channels to customers. It is our recommendation that future Raffles Class facilities should have new communication features available, such as sending and receiving email and surfing select internet content. In addition to already available Satellite telephones, these new features will enable passengers to connect to their own laptop and to perform their business while on the plane. Furthermore, it is our recommendation that the in
