Back in December 2021, SIA had revealed it signed a provisional agreement to buy the freighters, and with this deal, the airline becomes the first in the world to operate the new variant when deliveries complete in 20225

The deal was signed at the Singapore Airshow between SIA CEO Goh Choon Phong, and Airbus Chief Commercial Officer and Head of International Christian Scherer.
