On routes between China and Cebu, our standard baggage policy applies, using the weight or piece concept depending on your ticket and KrisFlyer status. For cabin baggage, you may typically bring at least one small bag on board within size and weight limits appropriate to your cabin class. For checked baggage, allowances increase from Economy Class through Premium Economy Class, Business Class, and First Class, with higher limits for selected KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status members. Please check your e-ticket or our website for the exact allowance for your booking.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from China to Cebu once the aircraft reaches above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and 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 plans. The service is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

Across the China to Cebu network, you will find First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class, depending on the aircraft and route. Many flights between major cities such as Beijing and Shanghai to Singapore offer First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class, while the Singapore to Cebu sector and some China to Singapore sectors offer Business Class and Economy Class only.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of around 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width. Premium Economy Class, available on selected flights, offers about 38 inches of pitch and up to 20 inches of width. Business Class features a fully flat bed with direct aisle access on long-haul configured aircraft. First Class provides a spacious fully flat bed and enhanced privacy on selected Boeing 777-300ER services. Cabin layouts can vary slightly by aircraft and route.

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

Most journeys from China to Cebu include a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, which offers indoor gardens, themed zones, rest areas, play spaces, and a wide range of shops and dining. For longer connections, you can explore multiple terminals, visit viewing galleries, or relax in a lounge or airport hotel. With shorter layovers, staying airside and enjoying the terminal facilities keeps the transfer simple and stress free. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait, it is an integral part of your journey.

Most major cities in China, including Xiamen, Shenzhen, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chongqing, Hangzhou, and Chengdu, follow China Standard Time (UTC+8). Cebu also follows Philippine Time (UTC+8). There is typically no time difference between these Chinese cities and Cebu, and neither observes daylight saving time.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Cebu 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 Cebu, 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.
