We offer a range of special meals that can be requested in advance to meet many dietary preferences. Please place your request when booking or via Manage Booking before you fly.

For flights between Surabaya and Ho Chi Minh City, our weight-concept baggage policy applies. In Economy Class, checked baggage allowances are 25kg for Lite and Value fares, and 30kg for Standard and Flexi fares. In Business Class, the checked baggage allowance is 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring one piece up to 7kg. Business Class passengers may bring two 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 Singapore Airlines flights from Surabaya to Ho Chi Minh City once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class and Business Class customers should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Paid plans are available for non-members. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Surabaya–Singapore and Singapore–Ho Chi Minh City sectors, Economy Class seats typically offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, providing comfortable space for regional flights. In Business Class, you can enjoy a fully flat bed with generous personal space and direct aisle access or easy aisle reach, depending on the aircraft configuration.

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. Eligible customers may relax in facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge at Singapore Changi Airport.

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

At Singapore Changi Airport, longer layovers can be spent joining a city sightseeing tour, which typically requires a minimum layover of around 5.5 to 6 hours, subject to the official programme’s conditions. This lets you see highlights of Singapore before returning comfortably for your onward flight.

For shorter layovers, you can stay airside and explore themed gardens, quiet rest areas, and entertainment zones. Depending on the terminal, you may also find facilities such as play areas, TV zones, and spa services to help you relax.

If you prefer to rest, consider booking an airport hotel or using designated rest zones for a nap and a shower between flights. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Surabaya operates on Western Indonesia Time (UTC+7), while Ho Chi Minh City uses Indochina Time (UTC+7). Neither location observes daylight saving time, so the time is the same in both cities throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Tan Son Nhat International Airport when flying from Surabaya 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 (Surabaya–Singapore and Singapore–Ho Chi Minh City) 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 Ho Chi Minh City 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 Surabaya–Ho Chi Minh City 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.
