Flights from Surabaya (SUB) to Chongqing (CKG)

In-flight Dining
On Surabaya–Chongqing itineraries via Singapore, you will be served meals appropriate to the time of day on both the Surabaya–Singapore and Singapore–Chongqing sectors in Economy Class and Business Class.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals on this route, which you can request in advance through our website or your booking agent. These should be ordered at least 24 hours before departure so we can prepare them for your flights.

Book the Cook
Eligible Business Class customers on selected sectors can take advantage of our Book the Cook service, allowing you to pre-select from a curated menu of main courses before you fly. This adds an extra level of personalisation to your dining experience.

Beverage Service
A selection of hot and cold drinks is available throughout the flight, including juices, soft drinks, tea, and coffee. Our signature Singapore Sling is also offered on board, so you can enjoy a classic taste of Singapore during your journey.

For flights between Surabaya and Chongqing, 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 specific ticket 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 Surabaya to Chongqing once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; Economy Class and Business Class customers should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase a Wi-Fi plan on board. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On this route, you can expect consistent comfort across both sectors. In Economy Class, seats typically feature a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, giving you space to relax. In Business Class, you can enjoy a fully flat bed with generous width and direct aisle access on both the Surabaya–Singapore and Singapore–Chongqing flights.

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 be able to use facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their cabin and frequent flyer 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 Surabaya but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

If you have several hours in Singapore Changi Airport, consider joining one of the official free city tours, which generally require a layover of at least 5.5 to 6 hours. These guided trips allow you to see highlights of Singapore before returning in time for your onward flight.

For shorter layovers, staying airside is very comfortable. You can explore themed gardens, quiet rest areas, art installations, and, in some terminals, facilities such as a swimming pool or cinema-style entertainment spaces. There are also many options for dining and shopping between flights.

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

Surabaya follows Western Indonesia Time, which is UTC+7, while Chongqing follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8. There is a 1-hour time difference year-round, with Chongqing 1 hour ahead of Surabaya. Neither location observes daylight saving time, so this difference stays consistent throughout the year.

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