For flights between Kolkata and Xiamen, the weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are: Economy Class (Lite and Value fares: 25kg; Standard and Flexi: 30kg) and Business Class (40kg). Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. Cabin baggage allowances are: Economy Class (1 piece, up to 7kg) and Business Class (2 pieces, each up to 7kg). Your exact allowance 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 Kolkata to Xiamen 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. Non-members can purchase access plans. The service 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 and Boeing 737-8 MAX operating the Kolkata–Singapore–Xiamen route, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of about 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed and every seat has direct aisle access, giving you more personal space and comfort.

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 passengers may use the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or 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 Kolkata but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

If your layover at Singapore Changi Airport is long enough, you can consider joining an official free transit tour, which typically requires at least about 5.5 to 6 hours between flights. These tours let you briefly experience highlights of the city before returning to the airport. For shorter layovers, staying airside is comfortable, with themed gardens, rest areas, play zones, and, in some terminals, attractions such as indoor waterfalls or dedicated relaxation spaces. You can also explore a wide range of dining and shopping options, or book an airport hotel or nap facility for extra rest. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Kolkata follows India Standard Time (IST), which is UTC+5:30 and does not observe daylight saving time. Xiamen follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Xiamen is therefore 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of Kolkata throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Xiamen when flying from Kolkata 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 (Kolkata–Singapore and Singapore–Xiamen) 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 Xiamen 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 Kolkata–Xiamen 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.
