Your layover is in Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed for relaxing transfers. For longer connections, you can join a free transit tour into the city, subject to eligibility and timing, or stay airside to enjoy themed gardens, quiet rest zones, and extensive dining and shopping. For shorter layovers, unwind in a lounge, visit the indoor attractions, or freshen up with a shower before your onward flight. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait it is an integral part of your journey.

Japan, including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, observes Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) all year. Manchester follows UK time, which is UTC+0 during Greenwich Mean Time (late October to late March) and UTC+1 during British Summer Time (late March to late October). This means Manchester is normally 9 hours behind Japan in winter and 8 hours behind in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Manchester 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 Manchester, 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.
