"Tigerair flight TR2639 scheduled to depart from Chennai to Singapore on Saturday evening was delayed due to an issue with the hydraulic system which has since been rectified," the spokesperson told PTI.
"The aircraft departed Chennai last evening and landed safely in Singapore at 1.58 AM local time," he said.
"Safety is of utmost priority to Tigerair and we will spare no effort to ensure the well-being of our passengers," he added.
