Flights from Dhaka (DAC) to Philippines

You enjoy in-flight dining on all flights from Dhaka to the Philippines, including the connection via Singapore. In Economy Class and Business Class, you receive carefully prepared meals with a choice of main course, along with light bites on selected sectors. You can request special meals in advance to meet many dietary needs, which we will serve at your seat. On eligible sectors and in selected cabins, you may also pre-select main courses from our Book the Cook service before departure. A full beverage service is available, including juices, soft drinks, teas, coffees, and a range of alcoholic drinks, with our signature Singapore Sling offered on many flights.

Flights between Bangladesh and the Philippines generally follow the weight-concept baggage allowance. For Economy Class, you can usually check in at least one piece within a combined weight allowance, while Business Class offers a higher checked baggage allowance. All travellers may bring cabin baggage within size and weight limits suited to their cabin. Exact allowances depend on your ticket type and KrisFlyer status, so please review your e-ticket or our baggage information page before you travel.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Dhaka to the Philippines once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free, unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please ensure your membership number is added to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and additional devices can use paid Wi-Fi plans. The connection is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

From Dhaka to the Philippines, Singapore Airlines offers Business Class and Economy Class across the combined journey via Singapore. Both Manila and Cebu routes provide these two cabin options, though the exact seat design and layout differ slightly between the Boeing 787-10, Airbus A350-900, and Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft.

In Economy Class, you can expect around 32-inch seat pitch and up to 19-inch seat width, depending on the aircraft type. Business Class offers a fully flat bed on widebody aircraft where available and generous recline with ample personal space on other aircraft, with direct aisle access on many services. Exact configurations vary between the Boeing 787-10, Airbus A350-900, and Boeing 737-8 MAX operating these routes.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to the Philippines. 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.

Most journeys from Dhaka to the Philippines connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed for comfortable and engaging transits. For longer layovers, you can join a free transit tour into the city if your timing and entry conditions allow, or relax in airport gardens, rest areas, and themed zones. Shorter layovers are well spent exploring the terminals, where you find art installations, play spaces, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Dhaka follows Bangladesh Standard Time (UTC+6), while the Philippines uses Philippine Time (UTC+8) all year. Manila and Cebu are both 2 hours ahead of Dhaka, and there is no daylight saving time in either country, so this difference remains constant throughout the year.

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