Flights from India to Germany

Yes, meals are offered on all Singapore Airlines flights from India to Germany. You can expect thoughtfully planned menus with a choice of main courses and accompaniments, tailored to the time of day and flight segment. A range of special meals can be requested in advance to suit different needs and preferences.

On selected cabins and routes, our Book the Cook service lets you pre-order from a wider menu before you fly, so a chosen dish is prepared specially for you. Even if you do not pre-order, you will still enjoy generous meal services across both sectors of your journey.

A full beverage selection is available, including wines, spirits, juices, and soft drinks, as well as our signature Singapore Sling on many flights. Hot drinks and water are offered regularly so you can stay refreshed throughout the trip.

On flights between India (IN) and Germany (DE), Singapore Airlines generally uses the weight concept for checked baggage. For Economy Class, the usual allowance is 25kg of checked baggage; for Premium Economy Class, 35kg; for Business Class, 40kg; and for First Class and Suites, 50kg. All customers may also bring cabin baggage within specified size and weight limits.

These allowances apply across all cabins operating on the India–Germany routes, which include Economy Class, Premium Economy Class, Business Class, First Class, and Suites, although the exact cabins offered depend on your specific flight. Always check your ticket and booking confirmation, as your allowance may vary based on your fare type or KrisFlyer membership status.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines aircraft used between India and Germany once the flight is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please ensure your KrisFlyer number is added to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure for automatic access.

If you are not a KrisFlyer member, or you prefer not to add your membership number, you can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. Connectivity is generally suitable for messaging, email, and light web browsing.

For the best experience, we recommend avoiding data-heavy activities in the air. The service does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file uploads and downloads.

Across the India to Germany network, you can choose from a range of cabin classes depending on your departure city and the aircraft assigned. Economy Class and Premium Economy Class are available on all routes in this country pair. Business Class is offered on every India–Germany routing as well.

Many services also feature First Class, particularly on wide-body aircraft such as the Boeing 777-300ER and some Airbus A380-800 or Airbus A350-900 flights. Suites are available on selected Airbus A380-800 services between Singapore and Germany, and on connecting routes from major Indian gateways like Mumbai and Delhi. Some city pairs use aircraft without Suites or First Class on the India–Singapore sector, so cabin options may vary between your two flight segments.

On India–Germany routes, Economy Class seats typically offer a 32-inch seat pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, giving you a comfortable amount of legroom for long-haul travel. Premium Economy Class provides more space, with a 38-inch seat pitch and up to 20-inch seat width, along with enhanced recline and leg support on most aircraft.

In Business Class, seats convert into fully flat beds, and every seat has direct aisle access on aircraft such as the Airbus A350-900, Airbus A380-800, and Boeing 777-300ER. First Class and Suites offer fully flat beds with even more personal space and privacy, with Suites on the Airbus A380-800 featuring a separate bed and seat in selected configurations.

Legroom and exact layout may differ slightly between aircraft types, and some India–Singapore sectors use aircraft such as the Boeing 787-10 or Boeing 737-8 MAX, which have different cabin configurations while maintaining generous space standards.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at Singapore Changi Airport on connections from India to Germany. Depending on your flight and cabin, you may be invited to use lounges such as our Singapore Airlines SilverKris Lounge or partner lounges within the terminal.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections from India to Germany. Eligibility is based on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, determined by the flight departing the layover airport. Other options such as purchasing a day pass 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.

Most flights from India to Germany connect through Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed to make transit time relaxing and engaging. If you have a shorter layover, you can enjoy indoor gardens, art installations, quiet rest areas, and shower facilities, or simply stretch your legs along the spacious terminals.

For longer layovers, you can explore attractions such as the indoor waterfall and canopy walkways in selected terminals, or watch a film in the airport cinema. Depending on your timing, you may also be able to join an official transit tour of Singapore that departs from the airport.

Whether you prefer to rest, shop, or explore, there are plenty of ways to use your connection time comfortably. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Germany when flying via the layover airport on a single booking with Singapore Airlines, provided both flight segments are under the same booking reference (PNR), the connection is under 24 hours, and, for partner-operated onward flights, a through-check agreement is in place.

You may be able to plan a stopover at the layover city on your journey to Germany, 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.

India operates on India Standard Time (IST), which is UTC+5:30 and does not observe daylight saving time. Germany uses Central European Time (CET), which is UTC+1 in winter, and Central European Summer Time (CEST), which is UTC+2 during daylight saving.

From late October to late March, cities such as Frankfurt and Munich are 4 hours and 30 minutes behind India. From late March to late October, during European summer time, the time difference increases to 3 hours and 30 minutes behind India. It is a good idea to check the current local time close to your travel dates, especially if you have onward rail or tour bookings after landing.
