Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Japan. At Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers can relax in our lounges during their transit. 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 journeys from Kochi to Japan connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which offers extensive airside facilities. For shorter layovers, you can explore themed gardens, quiet rest areas, playgrounds, art installations, and a wide choice of dining and shopping, all within the transit area. For longer connections, consider visiting an airport lounge, catching a movie, or relaxing in an airport hotel within or near the terminals. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Kochi follows India Standard Time (UTC+5:30). Japan, including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, follows Japan Standard Time (UTC+9:00). Japan does not observe daylight saving time, so it is consistently 3 hours and 30 minutes ahead of Kochi throughout the year.

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