From Auckland to Singapore, you can choose between Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class on the Airbus A350-900. From Singapore to Yangon, the Boeing 737-8 MAX offers Business Class and Economy Class. Your overall journey may therefore include a combination of these cabins, depending on your booking.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width on most aircraft. Premium Economy Class offers around 38 inches of pitch with up to 20 inches of width, along with enhanced recline and leg support on the Airbus A350-900 sector. Business Class on both the Airbus A350-900 and the Boeing 737-8 MAX features a fully flat bed with direct aisle access, giving you ample space to rest. Cabin layouts differ slightly between the long-haul and regional aircraft, but all are designed for comfort.

Other options such as purchasing a day pass are also available.

Most journeys from Auckland to Myanmar connect via Singapore Changi Airport. If you have enough time between flights, you can join a free transit tour into the city, subject to eligibility and timing. For shorter layovers, stay airside to enjoy themed gardens, quiet rest areas, children’s play zones, swimming pool access, and a wide range of dining and shopping. Airport hotels and nap facilities are also available within the terminals for longer rests. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it's an integral part of your journey.

Yangon operates on Myanmar Time (UTC+6:30). Auckland follows New Zealand Standard Time (UTC+12) and New Zealand Daylight Time (UTC+13, roughly late September to early April). Yangon is typically 5.5 hours behind Auckland during New Zealand Standard Time and 6.5 hours behind during daylight saving time.

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