Malaysia's Firefly cancels flights to Singapore over transboundary haze
Malaysian airline Firefly has cancelled flights to Singapore because of transboundary haze. Smoke from fires in Indonesia has made Singapore and Kuala Lumpur the most polluted cities in the world.
Malaysian airline Firefly has cancelled flights to Singapore as transboundary haze spreads across the region, Al Jazeera reported on 13 October.
The haze comes from fires in Indonesia. It has made Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, the Malaysian capital, the most polluted cities in the world at present.
Because the haze crosses national borders, it affects several countries in Southeast Asia, and its effects now reach air travel between Malaysia and Singapore.
The source does not say how many flights were cancelled, for how long, or when services might resume.
