Flights from Beijing (BJS) to Milan (MXP)

In-flight Dining
On Beijing to Milan journeys via Singapore, we serve meals designed for longer flights, with menus that reflect both Asian and international flavours. You can expect main meals and light bites tailored to the time of day and sector length.

Special Meals
We offer a variety of special meals to meet different dietary needs, which should be requested in advance through our website or your booking agent. These meals are prepared separately and served on both the Beijing–Singapore and Singapore–Milan sectors.

Book the Cook
Eligible customers in premium cabins on selected sectors can pre-order from our Book the Cook service, choosing from a wider range of main courses before departure. This allows you to personalise your dining experience for each long-haul leg.

Beverage Service
A selection of hot and cold drinks, including juices, soft drinks, tea, and coffee, is available throughout the flight. Our signature Singapore Sling is served on board, and a curated list of alcoholic beverages is also offered.

For flights between Beijing and Milan, the weight-concept baggage policy applies. For checked baggage, Economy Class passengers may check 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. Premium Economy Class passengers have an allowance of 35kg, and Business Class passengers have 40kg. First Class passengers on applicable Beijing–Singapore sectors may check 50kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. For cabin baggage, Economy Class and Premium Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, while Business Class and First Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. Your exact allowance is shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on board most Singapore Airlines aircraft once the flight is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi, and Economy Class and Premium Economy Class customers should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase Wi-Fi plans. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On the Beijing–Singapore and Singapore–Milan sectors, Economy Class seats typically offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, providing comfortable space for long flights. Premium Economy Class, available on selected Boeing 777-300ER flights between Beijing and Singapore and on Airbus A350-900 flights from Singapore to Milan, offers a 38-inch pitch with up to 20-inch seat width and enhanced recline. Business Class on all operating aircraft features a fully flat bed with generous personal space and direct aisle access. On Boeing 777-300ER flights between Beijing and Singapore, First Class offers a fully flat bed and an especially spacious seat for added privacy.

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 Beijing but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, you may wish to join one of Singapore Changi Airport’s official transit tours into the city, subject to your arrival time and tour availability. These guided options let you see highlights without handling your checked baggage. For shorter layovers, you can stay airside and enjoy gardens, rest areas, quiet zones, and family-friendly facilities across the terminals. Airport hotels and nap facilities offer extra comfort if you would like to rest between sectors. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Beijing follows China Standard Time (UTC+8) all year. Milan follows Central European Time (UTC+1) roughly from late October to late March, and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from late March to late October. Milan is therefore 7 hours behind Beijing in winter, and 6 hours behind in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Milan when flying from Beijing 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 (Beijing–Singapore and Singapore–Milan) 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 Milan 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 Beijing–Milan 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.
