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. Eligible customers may be able to access the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge at Singapore Changi Airport.

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

Singapore Changi Airport offers extensive facilities that make layovers comfortable and engaging. For longer connections of at least 5.5 to 6 hours, you can consider joining an official transit tour into the city, subject to eligibility and timing. For shorter layovers, you can stay airside and explore gardens, rest areas, and quiet zones, or freshen up with showers and wellness services within the terminals. Family areas, art installations, and a wide range of dining and retail options help the time pass quickly. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

New York operates on Eastern Standard Time (UTC−5) from roughly November to March, and Eastern Daylight Time (UTC−4) from roughly March to November. Perth uses Australian Western Standard Time year-round (UTC+8). This means Perth is typically 13 hours ahead of New York in winter, and 12 hours ahead in summer.
