On flights between China and Japan via Singapore, Singapore Airlines generally applies the weight concept. In Economy Class, your checked baggage allowance is usually 25kg. In Premium Economy Class, it is usually 35kg. In Business Class, it is usually 40kg. Cabin baggage limits apply in addition, with one or two small pieces allowed on board depending on your cabin class, within size and weight limits. Exact allowances are shown on your ticket and during booking.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Chongqing to Japan once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, including those travelling in Economy Class and Premium Economy Class, provided your membership number is added to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and additional users can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

From Chongqing to Singapore, you can fly in Business Class or Economy Class. From Singapore to Tokyo, you can choose from First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class, or Economy Class. From Singapore to Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka, flights offer Business Class and Economy Class. Available cabins on your itinerary depend on the combination of sectors you book.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width. In Premium Economy Class, available on selected Singapore–Tokyo flights, the seat pitch is about 38 inches with up to 20 inches of seat width. In Business Class on both narrow-body and wide-body aircraft, you can enjoy a fully flat bed with direct aisle access on long-haul configured aircraft. On Singapore–Tokyo flights with First Class, seats convert into a fully flat bed for a more spacious rest. Cabin layouts may vary slightly by aircraft and route.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Japan. Eligibility is based on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, determined by the flight departing the layover airport. Other options such as purchasing a day pass are also available.

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.

On your journey from Chongqing to Japan, you will connect at Singapore Changi Airport. For shorter layovers, stay airside to enjoy quiet seating, indoor gardens, free rest areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. For longer transits, you can explore more terminals, visit themed gardens, or relax in a transit hotel. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Chongqing follows China Standard Time (UTC+8). Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka follow Japan Standard Time (UTC+9). Japan does not observe daylight saving time, so Japan is always one hour ahead of Chongqing throughout the year.

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.
