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 Ho Chi Minh City but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport offers a wide range of ways to spend your layover, from themed gardens and art installations to quiet rest areas and transit hotels. If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, you may consider joining an official transit city tour, subject to eligibility and operating hours. For shorter layovers, you can stay airside to enjoy playgrounds, entertainment zones, and relaxation spaces near your departure gate. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Ho Chi Minh City follows Indochina Time (UTC+7) and does not observe daylight saving time. Zurich uses Central European Time (UTC+1) from late October to late March, and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from late March to late October. This means Zurich is 6 hours behind Ho Chi Minh City in winter, and 5 hours behind in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Zurich Airport when flying from Ho Chi Minh City 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 (Ho Chi Minh City–Singapore and Singapore–Zurich) 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 Zurich 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 Ho Chi Minh City–Zurich 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.
