Singapore Airlines has partnered with US-based wellness retreat operator Canyon Ranch to "re-invent" ultra-long haul travel with a focus on healthy food, rest and relaxation, and wellbeing on the world's longest flights.
The new in-flight strategies will be rolled out on Singapore Airlines' 18 hour 45 min non-stop service between Singapore and New York which will be launched in October and be the world's longest commercial flight.
The Canyon Ranch team of experts, including a former US Surgeon-General, have developed science-based strategies for improved sleep, exercise and stretching, as well as new, nutrition-focused menus.
The programme will also be used in Singapore-US non-stop services to Los Angeles and San Francisco.
