On flights from Vietnam (VN) to Japan (JP), Singapore Airlines generally applies the weight concept for checked baggage, as both countries lie outside the Americas. For Economy Class, the usual checked baggage allowance is based on a total weight limit across your bags, while Premium Economy Class and Business Class enjoy higher weight allowances.

Exact allowances can differ by fare type and KrisFlyer status, so please check your ticket details or our website before you travel.

Vietnam operates on Indochina Time (UTC+7) and does not observe daylight saving time. Japan, including cities such as Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, uses Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) all year round without daylight saving. This means Japan is consistently 2 hours ahead of Vietnam throughout the year, so when it is 10:00 in Hanoi, Da Nang, or Ho Chi Minh City, it is 12:00 in Tokyo and other major Japanese cities.
