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 Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), eligible customers departing on Singapore Airlines may be invited to use the Star Alliance Lounge before their flight.
