Notes

Especially for Huaiwei: :)

SQ has always had a daily flight to Brunei SQ182 SIN - BWN, and SQ 181 BWN - SIN. These flights always departed Singapore (Seletar, then Payar Lebar, then Changi) in the mornings and returned to Singapore early noon. Yes, the flights haven't changed for a long time which is why people remember the flight numbers and the timing.

When Tradewinds started service, they added a daily route leaving Singapore mid afternoon and returning in the evenings. This lasted for under 2 years. It did not replace SQ 181/182. However due to whatever reasons (probably because the market was not large enough to support 4 daily flights), the Tradewinds flight was dropped. This was before it became SilkAir.

The codeshare between SQ and BI only started a few years back, where BI marketed SQ 181/182 as (I think) BI 4181/4182 and SQ marketed BI421/422 as SQ5421/5422 (not sure if it also involves the evening flight BI429/430, but I'll assume that it does - I could also be wrong on the flight numbers since I'm typing this from memory, so don't get too harsh on me if I make a mistake). My point is, SQ did not "consolidate" the destination until after 10 years of the termination of the Tradewinds flight and even then, it operates only 1 out of the 3 daily flight between the 2 destinations that carries the SQ flight number (assuming that it carries the flight numbers on both of BI's almost daily flights... and on some days, it doesn't even use its own aircraft on the flight it operates, it operates the flight with SilkAir's smaller A319/320 instead of the bigger B777 which SQ uses for SEA routes).
