Singapore Airlines has built up a strong brand name as a trendsetter in industry and especially in the aviation industry, particularly in terms of service excellence, innovation, safety, and paired with consistent profitability.

It has received many awards. An industry bellwether for aircraft purchases, it has a reputation for being a very demanding and meticulous buyer, with its purchases closely monitored by plane makers as an endorsement of their aircraft, and by other airlines for potentially reliable and cost-effective purchases. The airline was Asia's first and the world's third airline to be accredited by IATA with the IOSA (IATA Operations Safety Audit).

The airline has diversified into various markets including ground handling, aviation engineering, air catering, and travel tour marketing. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Silkair, manages regional flights to secondary cities with smaller capacity requirements, particularly those in Southeast Asia, China and India. Strong growth potential in air freight operations prompted the setting up of a separate subsidiary, Singapore Airlines Cargo, which leased the entire freighter fleet from SIA and manages the cargo holds in all existing SIA aircraft.

The airline also responded to the threats posed by the low-cost sector by taking a 49% stake in Tiger Airways. Collectively, the Singapore Airlines Group (including SilkAir and Singapore Airlines Cargo) is the world's largest carrier by market capitalization, having overtaken Southwest Airlines in 2006/7, and ranks amongst the top 15 carriers worldwide in terms of revenue passenger kilometres. In addition, it is the 8th largest airline in Asia and ranked 6th in the world in terms of international passengers carried.
