Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers with a layover in Singapore. Your eligibility is based on your class of travel or your KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, and it is determined by your flight leaving Singapore. Other options, like purchasing a day pass at a pay-per-use lounge, are also available.

Lounge Access Eligibility
Cabin Class: Complimentary for Suites, First, and Business Class passengers. Premium Economy and Economy travellers do not have access unless they hold eligible status.

Frequent Flyer Status: PPS Club and KrisFlyer Elite Gold (or Star Alliance Gold) members have access regardless of cabin class.

The Next Segment Rule: Eligibility is based on the flight immediately departing that airport. For example, if you fly Economy from Bangkok but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only. At Singapore (SIN), eligible customers may be invited to use facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their cabin and status.

Singapore Changi Airport is well known for its transit experience, and if you have a layover of at least 5.5 to 6 hours, you may consider joining an official transit tour into the city, subject to eligibility and scheduling. For shorter layovers, you can stay airside and enjoy facilities such as indoor gardens, rest areas, play zones, and a wide choice of dining.

If you prefer to freshen up, look for airport hotels or pay-per-use lounges with showers and quiet spaces. You can also explore the linked terminals, which feature art installations and themed zones that make walking between gates more enjoyable. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it s an integral part of your journey.

Bangkok operates on Indochina Time (UTC+7) all year and does not observe daylight saving time. Xiamen operates on China Standard Time (UTC+8), also without daylight saving. This means Xiamen is 1 hour ahead of Bangkok throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Xiamen when flying from Bangkok via Singapore on a single booking with Singapore Airlines.

Through-Check Conditions
For your bags to be sent directly to your final destination, the following general conditions must be met:

Single Itinerary: Both flight segments (Bangkok–Singapore and Singapore–Xiamen) must be under the same booking reference or PNR.

Layover Duration: Your connection in Singapore must be less than 24 hours. If your layover exceeds 24 hours, it is considered a stopover, and you will typically be required to collect your luggage and re-check it for your onward flight.

Partner Airlines: If your onward flight from Singapore to Xiamen is operated by a partner airline, Singapore Airlines has through-check agreements that usually allow your bags to be tagged to your final destination.

You may be able to plan a stopover in Singapore on your Bangkok–Xiamen trip, subject to your ticket conditions and availability. When booking, you can search for multi-city options or speak with our customer service team or your travel agent, who can advise whether a stopover can be added to your itinerary.
