Yes, meals are served on all Singapore Airlines flights from Singapore to South Korea. You can enjoy our in-flight dining with a choice of main courses, complemented by appetisers and desserts on longer services. Special meals can be requested in advance to meet many dietary needs. On selected cabins and routes, Book the Cook allows you to pre-order curated dishes before your flight.

Flights between Singapore and South Korea use the weight concept for checked baggage. In Economy Class, you are typically entitled to a checked baggage allowance starting from 25kg. In Business Class, a higher checked baggage allowance applies. All customers may also bring cabin baggage on board within size and weight limits. Exact allowances depend on your fare type and KrisFlyer status, so please check your booking confirmation before you travel.

Yes, Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Singapore to South Korea once the aircraft reaches above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please add your membership number to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure to enjoy this. Non-members and some fare types can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On routes from Singapore to South Korea, Singapore Airlines offers Business Class and Economy Class. Services to Seoul on the Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 787-10 feature both cabins, while flights to Busan on the Boeing 737-8 MAX offer a similar two-cabin configuration. Cabin availability may vary by flight and date.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width, depending on the aircraft type. In Business Class on all routes to South Korea, you have a fully flat bed with direct aisle access on widebody aircraft and a spacious reclining seat with generous legroom on narrowbody aircraft, designed to give you ample space to rest and work. Cabin configurations can differ slightly between the Airbus A350-900, Boeing 787-10, and Boeing 737-8 MAX.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to South Korea. 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.

If you have a layover at Singapore Changi Airport on your journey to South Korea, you can enjoy themed gardens, art installations, and quiet rest areas between flights. For longer layovers, explore Jewel Changi Airport, with its indoor waterfall, walking trails, and a wide range of shops and dining. Shorter connections are easy to manage airside, with clear signage and efficient security and immigration. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Singapore operates on Singapore Time (UTC+8), while South Korea, including Seoul and Busan, uses Korea Standard Time (UTC+9). This means South Korea is 1 hour ahead of Singapore throughout the year, as neither country observes daylight saving time.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in South Korea 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 South Korea, 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.
