Flights will leave Western Sydney daily at 11.55pm, arriving in Singapore at 5.05am. Return flights will leave Singapore at 11.30am, arriving at Western Sydney at 10.20pm.

Western Sydney International will be Sydney's first 24-hour airport, rivaling Melbourne International Airport.

Sydney's Kingsford Smith Airport has a nightly curfew of 11pm to 6am.

Australian Travel Industry Association chief executive, Dean Long, said the airport would be "a massive leap forward for Sydneysiders and their connection to the world".

"Singapore Airlines is one of the best aviation players with one of the best products in the sky, and this gives them wonderful access to Europe," Mr Long said.

"It doesn't matter if you're in Western Sydney, the east or the north, your connectivity through to Asia and also Europe is now unparalleled. It gives you what Victorians have had for a number of years - a 24-hour airport that connects this great city to the world."

Singapore Airlines will add daily Western Sydney services to its existing Sydney Kingsford Smith services, operating a combined five daily flights out of Sydney.

Federal Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government Minister, Catherine King, said: "Singapore Airlines was the first international airline to commit to fly into Western Sydney International, and I'm really pleased tickets are on sale so people can start planning their next flight."

My all-time favourite destination is ... Cornwall. From the giant seagulls to the blustery beaches, Cornish pasties and fishing villages, it stirs something romantic and seafaring in me.

Next on my bucket list is … Mongolia. I want to go somewhere really unique that feels totally foreign and challenges my way of life.

My top travel tip is … Don’t plan too much. Walk the streets and let it happen. And make sure you check out what’s within a few blocks of your hotel - sometimes the best local food is found that way.
