Book the Cook
On eligible sectors in premium cabins, you can pre-select from an expanded menu using our Book the Cook service. This allows you to choose a main course in advance and enjoy a more personalised dining experience on board.

Beverage Service
Throughout the journey, a selection of hot and cold drinks is available, including juices, soft drinks, coffee, and tea. Our signature Singapore Sling is served on board, allowing you to enjoy a classic cocktail during your flight.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights between Rome and Beijing once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class and Premium Economy Class members should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans on board.

The connection is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing. It does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers, so we recommend planning any heavy online activities for before or after your flight.

From Rome to Singapore, Economy Class seats typically offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, Premium Economy Class offers a 38-inch pitch with up to 20-inch seat width, and Business Class provides a fully flat bed with direct aisle access for every seat.

From Singapore to Beijing, Economy Class again offers around a 32-inch pitch and up to 19-inch width, while Business Class features fully flat beds with direct aisle access. This gives you consistent comfort across both sectors of your journey.

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 may be invited to use lounges such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their cabin class and membership status.

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

Singapore Changi Airport is designed for relaxing and enjoyable transits, with themed gardens, art installations, rest areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. For shorter layovers, staying airside allows you to explore amenities such as indoor gardens, quiet zones, and family-friendly play areas.

If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights and meet the eligibility criteria, you may be able to join an official transit city tour to see highlights of Singapore before returning to the airport. Always check your tour options and timing on arrival.

For rest between flights, you can consider airport hotels or pay-per-use lounges offering showers and comfortable seating. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Rome follows Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from roughly late March to late October. Beijing uses China Standard Time (UTC+8) all year. This means Beijing is 7 hours ahead of Rome in winter, and 6 hours ahead during Rome’s summer time.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Beijing when flying from Rome 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 (Rome–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 Rome–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.
