In-flight Dining
On the Adelaide to Singapore and Singapore to Beijing sectors, you will be served meals tailored to the time of day and flight duration, with a choice of main courses in both Business Class and Economy Class.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals to meet different dietary requirements on this route. You can request these in advance through our website or your booking agent, so we can prepare your meal before you travel.

Book the Cook
Eligible customers in selected premium cabins on Singapore Airlines flights can pre-order from a wider menu through our Book the Cook service, available from Singapore on many routes. If your booking is eligible, the option will appear when you manage your trip online.

Beverage Service
Throughout the flight, you can enjoy a selection of hot and cold drinks, including juices, soft drinks, coffee, and tea. Our signature Singapore Sling is available on board, alongside a curated choice of wines and other beverages.

For flights between Adelaide and Beijing, our baggage policy uses the weight concept. Checked baggage allowances are: Economy Class customers may check 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares, while Business Class customers may check up to 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class customers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, and Business Class customers 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 on top of the standard limits.

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

On both the Adelaide to Singapore Boeing 787-10 sector and the Singapore to Beijing Airbus A350-900 sector, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with generous personal space, and every seat has direct aisle access for ease of movement.

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.

At Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers can relax in facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge between flights.

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

With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can enjoy one of the world’s most comfortable transit experiences. For longer layovers, you may join the airport’s free city tour programme, which typically requires at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, allowing time for immigration and sightseeing before returning to your gate.

For shorter connections, staying airside offers plenty to do, from themed gardens and art installations to rest areas, showers, and quiet zones. Selected terminals also feature entertainment zones, play areas, and airport hotels if you prefer a private room.

Whether you choose to explore the city or relax in the terminal, clear wayfinding and efficient procedures make your connection smooth. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Adelaide operates on Australian Central Standard Time (UTC+9:30) and observes Australian Central Daylight Time (UTC+10:30) roughly from early October to early April. Beijing follows China Standard Time (UTC+8) year-round and does not use daylight saving. This means Beijing is typically 1.5 hours behind Adelaide in winter, and 2.5 hours behind during Adelaide’s daylight saving period.

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