On flights between the United Kingdom and Vietnam, Singapore Airlines generally applies the piece concept for checked baggage. For Economy Class, you can usually check in at least one piece of baggage; Premium Economy Class and Business Class enjoy higher checked baggage allowances in number and weight per piece. Suites and First Class have the most generous checked baggage allowances. Cabin baggage limits also vary by cabin, typically allowing at least one carry-on bag plus a personal item within specified size and weight limits. Exact allowances depend on your itinerary and fare type, so please refer to your booking summary for precise details.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from London to Vietnam 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 KrisFlyer number is added to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and additional users can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

Across the London–Vietnam routes, you may have access to Suites, First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class. On the London–Singapore sector, aircraft offer a combination of Suites or First Class, together with Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class, depending on whether you fly on the Airbus A380-800, Boeing 777-300ER, or Airbus A350-900. On regional flights between Singapore and Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, or Hanoi, cabins include Business Class and Economy Class, with configurations varying by aircraft.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width. Premium Economy Class offers around 38 inches of pitch with up to 20 inches of width. Business Class seats convert into fully flat beds, with every seat providing direct aisle access on long-haul aircraft. First Class and Suites feature fully flat beds and even more personal space. Exact configurations may differ between the Airbus A380-800, Boeing 777-300ER, Airbus A350-900, and Boeing 737-8 MAX operating your flights, and not all cabin classes are available on every sector.

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

Other options such as purchasing a day pass are also available.

Most flights from London to Vietnam connect at Singapore Changi Airport. For longer layovers, you can explore the airports themed gardens, waterfall attractions, and rest areas, or join a transit tour when available and timing permits. For shorter connections, stay airside to enjoy quiet zones, showers, shopping, and dining close to your departure gate. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Vietnam observes a single time zone, Indochina Time (UTC+7), and does not use daylight saving time. London operates on Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+0) in winter and British Summer Time (UTC+1) typically from late March to late October. This means Vietnam is 7 hours ahead of London during GMT months and 6 hours ahead during BST months, for Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hanoi alike.

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