If Your Flight is Cancelled
At the point of writing, Singapore Airlines, or your travel agent, should have already reached out to you to provide alternative arrangements. If you think that the new arrangement is not suitable for you; you should first go online to search for some flight alternatives before contacting Singapore Airlines or your travel agency, then proceed with making a new arrangement.
if australia decides to close its borders
will singapore airlines waiver the fee to get an earlier flight to get home
Please refer to the latest waiver policy here

Will Singapore be waiving the cost of rebooking to another flight if the situation in Europe ie. Italy,
becomes worse.
At the moment it appears that if you are willing to travel you may get stuck in a place not of your choice for an indefinite period. Hardly attractive to holiday makers.
Fees will be waived upon flight cancellations. But no harm calling in SQ to check. I have heard stories where SQ offered a courtesy waiver for your situation
We are flying from Brisbane to Rome on the 12 of April return on the 3 June can you tell us if there is an update on these flights . Kind regards Maggie
Dear Maggie,

Sam:( I don’t know why they didn’t reschedule me onto the other flight since my flight from SG to Sydney got affected ..so confusing ..they didn’t even replied any emails……
I encourage you to list down at least 3 best flight alternatives and contact the SQ hotline directly.
