Indian budget carrier GoAir announced on Wednesday that it plans to launch non-stop flight services to Singapore from Bengaluru and Kolkata, starting later this month.

Singapore will be the airline's eighth overseas destination, GoAir said in a release.

"Singapore carries the distinction of being an important leisure destination as well as an established business hub. GoAir will work closely with Singapore Tourism Board and others for the promotion of tourism in both the countries," said Jeh Wadia, managing director, GoAir.

Starting October 18, GoAir will commence operations to Singapore from Bengaluru with four flights per week and a day later, October 19, it will start flying three times a week to the Island-city nation from Kolkata.
