It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans.

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

In Singapore (SIN), eligible passengers may be able to use the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, subject to their eligibility and operating hours.

Singapore Changi Airport offers extensive amenities that make layovers comfortable and engaging, from themed gardens and quiet rest areas to family zones and art installations. For shorter connections, you can stay airside and explore the terminals, enjoy a meal, or relax in a quiet corner.

If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, you may be able to join one of the airport's free transit tours, allowing you to see highlights of Singapore without needing to plan a full city visit. For longer layovers, airport hotels and rest facilities provide the option of a shower or short sleep.

Whether you choose to explore the terminals or join a tour, clear wayfinding and frequent transport links between terminals help you move easily. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it's an integral part of your journey.

Through-Check Conditions

Single Itinerary: Both flight segments (Adelaide–Singapore and Singapore–Ho Chi Minh City) must be under the same booking reference or PNR.

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 Adelaide–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.
