Flights from Riyadh (RUH) to Busan (PUS)

In-flight Dining
On the Riyadh to Singapore and Singapore to Busan sectors, you will be served complimentary meals tailored to the time of day and flight duration, with options available in both Business Class and Economy Class.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals for specific dietary needs on this route. You can request these when booking or via Manage Booking before departure so we can prepare your preferred option.

Book the Cook
Eligible passengers in Business Class on the long-haul sector can pre-select from an extended menu using our Book the Cook service, allowing you to choose your main course in advance for a more personalised dining experience.

Beverage Service
A selection of hot and cold drinks is available throughout the flight, including juices, soft drinks, coffee, and tea. Our signature Singapore Sling cocktail is also served on board.

For flights between Riyadh and Busan, the weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are as follows: Economy Class guests may check 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. Business Class guests may check 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, while Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final baggage allowance for your trip is shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Riyadh to Busan once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi, and Economy Class and Business Class passengers should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can choose from paid plans. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Airbus A350-900 sector from Riyadh to Singapore and the Boeing 737-8 MAX sector from Singapore to Busan, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch and up to 19-inch seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with generous personal space and direct aisle access on these services.

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.

At Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers may use facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their cabin and status.

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

Singapore Changi Airport is designed for comfortable and engaging transits, with themed gardens, quiet rest areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. If your layover is at least 5.5 hours and you meet the entry requirements, you may also consider joining one of the official city transit tours.

For shorter connections, you can remain airside and explore walking trails between terminals, indoor gardens, and relaxation zones, or simply unwind in calm seating areas. Airport hotels and paid lounges are also available if you prefer extra privacy and rest.

Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Riyadh follows Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3) and does not observe daylight saving time. Busan follows Korea Standard Time (UTC+9), also without daylight saving time. This means Busan is 6 hours ahead of Riyadh throughout the year, so when it is 12.00pm in Riyadh, it is 6.00pm in Busan.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Busan when flying from Riyadh via Singapore on a single booking with Singapore Airlines.

Through-Check Conditions
For your bags to be sent directly to your final destination, the following general conditions must be met:

Single Itinerary: Both flight segments (Riyadh–Singapore and Singapore–Busan) must be under the same booking reference or PNR.

Layover Duration: Your connection in Singapore must be less than 24 hours. If your layover exceeds 24 hours, it is considered a stopover, and you will typically be required to collect your luggage and re-check it for your onward flight.

Partner Airlines: If your onward flight from Singapore to Busan is operated by a partner airline, Singapore Airlines has through-check agreements that usually allow your bags to be tagged to your final destination.

You may be able to plan a stopover in Singapore on your Riyadh–Busan trip, 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.
