in Singapore has rebounded strongly.\n\nHotels are filling up, planes are filling up, and airlines are seeing profits surpass pre-pandemic levels.\n\nWhat’s happening now is not just a short burst of travel demand but part of a broader recovery taking shape across Asia’s tourism markets.\n\nAs more visitors return and airlines restore their networks, several of Singapore’s well-known listed companies are set to gain.\n\nAmong them are Singapore Airlines (SGX: C6L), SATS Ltd (SGX: S58), and ComfortDelGro Corporation (SGX: C52), offering investors exposure to the tourism recovery along with reliable dividend income.\n\nSingapore Airlines (SGX: C6L)\nSingapore Airlines is Singapore’s flagship carrier, operating passenger and cargo air transportation through two key brands: Singapore Airlines for full-service and Scoot for low-cost travel.\n\nFor the first half of the fiscal year ending 31 March 2026 (1H FY2026), the airline reported revenue of S$9.7 billion, up 1.9% year on year.\n\nHowever, profit attributable to shareholders plunged by nearly 68% year on year to S$238.5 million.\n\nThe sharp decline was primarily from losses at Air India, which the group began equity accounting for the Indian carrier from December 2024 following Vistara’s integration. \n\nThis contributed to a S$417 million reduction in the share of results from associated companies.\n\nOn the operational front, passenger demand remained robust with 20.8 million passengers carried, up 8% year-on-year. \n\nSIA’s load factor improved by 1.3 percentage points to 87.7%.\n\nThe airline declared an interim dividend of S$0.05 per share and a special dividend of S$0.03 per share, totalling S$0.08 compared to S$0.10 a year ago.\n\nAt S$6.36, shares offer a trailing dividend yield of around 6%.\n\nSATS Ltd (SGX: S58)\nWhile SIA handles the transport, the infrastructure supporting those flights is also seeing a lift.\n\nSATS is one of the world’s largest air cargo handlers and Asia’s leading airline caterer. \n\nFollowing the acquisition of Worldwide Flight Services in 2023, the combined network operates over 225 stations in 27 countries.\n\nFor the first half of the fiscal year ending 31 March 2026, SATS delivered revenue of S$3.1 billion, up 9.1% year on year. \n\nProfit attributable to shareholders rose 11.2% year-on-year to nearly S$150 million.\n\nFree cash flow surged 79.4% to around S$233 million, reflecting improved working capital management.\n\nThe operating profit margin expanded from 8.5% to 9.2%, driven by favourable operating leverage from volume growth and continued operational efficiency gains.\n\nGateway Services revenue increased 11% year on year to S$2.4 billion, with cargo volumes that outperformed IATA’s global growth benchmarks. \n\n\nManagement highlighted new customer wins including Emirates SkyCargo and Turkish Airlines.\n\nThe Board declared an interim dividend of S$0.02 per share, up 33.3% from S$0.015 a year ago.\n\nAt S$3.82, shares offer a trailing dividend yield of around 1.4%.\n\nComfortDelGro (SGX: C52)\nComfortDelGro is a global land transport company operating in Singapore, Australia, the United Kingdom, and other regions.\n\nFor the nine months ended 30 September 2025, the company reported revenue of S$3.75 billion, up 13.9% year-on-year. \n\nThe increase was driven by UK bus contract renewals at improved margins, new Manchester contracts, and contributions from acquisitions including A2B and Addison Lee.\n\nProfit attributable to shareholders rose 15.4% year-on-year to S$176.4 million.\n\nManagement highlighted that overseas revenue now exceeds 55% of group revenue. \n\nThe Stockholm rail joint venture commenced full operations on 2 November 2025, and the group has prequalified to bid for Copenhagen Metro operations.\n\nAt S$1.47, shares offer a trailing dividend yield of around 5.6%.\n\nGet Smart: Different ways to play the recovery\nThe tourism recovery story offers investors different entry points depending on their risk appetite.\n\nSingapore Airlines provides direct exposure to air travel demand but faces headwinds from Air India losses that may take time to resolve.\n\nSATS offers a steadier proposition. \n\nAs the company handling cargo and catering, it benefits from rising travel volumes without the volatility of airline operations. \n\nThe 33% dividend hike signals management’s confidence in the business.\n\nComfortDelGro, with its diversified global operations and highest yield among the three, provides a defensive exposure to tourism-related spending.\n\nFor dividend investors, the key is to match your investment to your income needs and risk tolerance.\n\nThis new 10-minute read could change how you invest this year.
