Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Japan.

Other options such as purchasing a day pass are also available.

Most journeys from Amsterdam to Japan connect via Singapore Changi Airport. For longer layovers, you can join a complimentary transit tour of Singapore, or venture into the city independently, subject to entry requirements. For shorter stays, it is easy to remain airside and enjoy Changi's gardens, art installations, rest areas, and dining options, or simply freshen up before your next flight. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Amsterdam is in Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) and observes daylight saving time, moving to Central European Summer Time (CEST, UTC+2) from late March to late October. Japan, including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, follows Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) year-round with no daylight saving. This means Japan is typically 8 hours ahead of Amsterdam in winter and 7 hours ahead in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Japan when flying via the layover airport on a single booking with Singapore Airlines, provided both flight segments are under the same booking reference (PNR), the connection is under 24 hours, and, for partner-operated onward flights, a through-check agreement is in place.

You may be able to plan a stopover at the layover city on your journey to Japan, 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.
