Yes, meals are served on flights from Bengaluru to China. In-flight dining includes thoughtfully prepared multi-course meals inspired by regional flavours, with options rotating regularly. You can request special meals in advance to suit your needs.

Flights between India and China generally follow the weight-concept baggage allowance. In Economy Class, you can usually check in at least 25kg of checked baggage. In Premium Economy Class, the typical allowance is higher, often around 35kg. In Business Class, you usually enjoy an even more generous allowance, commonly around 40kg.
For cabin baggage, most travellers may bring one piece in Economy Class and Premium Economy Class, and two pieces in Business Class, each within our standard size and weight limits. Exact allowances can vary by fare type.
You should always refer to your e-ticket or manage booking page for the specific checked baggage and cabin baggage allowances that apply to your individual ticket.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Bengaluru to China 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, you should add your membership number at least 1.5 hours before departure.
Non-members and additional devices can use paid plans, which are suitable for messaging apps, email, and basic browsing. Wi-Fi performance can vary depending on route and weather conditions.
The service is not designed for video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers, so you should download heavy content before you travel.

On the Bengaluru to Singapore sector, you can fly in Business Class, Premium Economy Class, or Economy Class, depending on the flight. From Singapore to many Chinese cities, flights offer Business Class and Economy Class cabins.
Overall, the combined network from Bengaluru to China features Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class, though not every cabin is available on every leg. When booking, you can view the aircraft type and cabin options for your selected itinerary.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width, designed for comfortable long flights. In Premium Economy Class, seats typically offer about 38 inches of pitch and up to 20 inches of width, with extra recline and leg support.
In Business Class, seats convert into fully flat beds, and every seat has direct aisle access on widebody aircraft such as the Airbus A350-900. On narrowbody aircraft like the Boeing 737-8 MAX, Business Class still offers a generous recline with spacious legroom.
Cabin configurations can differ slightly between aircraft and routes, so you can check your specific flight details during booking.

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

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.

Most journeys from Bengaluru to China connect at Singapore Changi Airport, which offers extensive facilities. For a longer layover, you can consider a free transit tour of the city, subject to timing and availability, or explore themed gardens, art installations, and relaxation zones airside.
For shorter connections, you can stay within the terminal to enjoy showers, quiet rest areas, playgrounds, and a wide range of dining and shopping. Airport hotels and pay-per-use lounges are also available if you prefer more privacy.
Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it's an integral part of your journey.

Bengaluru follows India Standard Time (UTC+5:30). Most major cities in China, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Xiamen, Chengdu, Chongqing, and Hangzhou, use China Standard Time (UTC+8). China does not observe daylight saving time, so the time difference remains 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of Bengaluru throughout the year.

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

At Singapore Changi Airport, connections are usually straightforward, but you should still allow enough time to move between gates, clear any required security checks, and visit facilities. We recommend choosing itineraries that meet or exceed the minimum connection time shown during booking.
