Flights from Brisbane (BNE) to Riyadh (RUH)

In-flight Dining
On the Brisbane to Riyadh route via Singapore, you will be served main meals and refreshments tailored to the time of day and sector length in both Business Class and Economy Class. Menus are designed to provide comforting flavours and balanced options on these long journeys.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals on request, which must be ordered before departure. These options are designed to accommodate common dietary needs and are available on both sectors of your journey, subject to advance confirmation at the time of booking.

Book the Cook
Eligible passengers travelling in Business Class on this route can use our Book the Cook service from selected departure points, allowing you to pre-select from an expanded menu and enjoy your chosen main course on board, subject to availability.

Beverage Service
Throughout your flights, you can enjoy a selection of hot and cold beverages, including juices, soft drinks, tea, and coffee. A signature Singapore Sling is also available on board, alongside a curated range of other alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.

For flights between Brisbane and Riyadh, the weight concept applies. In Economy Class, the checked baggage allowance is 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. In Business Class, the checked baggage allowance is 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 Brisbane to Riyadh once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Paid plans are available for non-members. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On the Airbus A350-900 operating both the Brisbane–Singapore and Singapore–Riyadh sectors, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, providing comfortable space for long journeys. Business Class features a fully flat bed with direct aisle access from every seat, giving you room to rest and work throughout the flight.

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 use facilities such as 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 Brisbane but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can enjoy lush indoor gardens, themed rest areas, children’s play zones, and a wide range of dining options between flights. Depending on your terminal and time, facilities such as transit hotels, spa services, and quiet zones make it easy to rest.

If your layover meets the minimum requirements, you may be able to join an official city transit tour, which typically requires several hours of connection time to accommodate immigration, touring, and your return to the gate. For shorter layovers, staying airside is ideal, where clear signage and efficient security help your connection feel straightforward.

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

Brisbane follows Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), which is UTC+10 and does not observe daylight saving time. Riyadh uses Arabia Standard Time (AST), which is UTC+3 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Riyadh is therefore 7 hours behind Brisbane throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh when flying from Brisbane 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 (Brisbane–Singapore and Singapore–Riyadh) 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 Riyadh 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 Brisbane–Riyadh 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.
