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 enjoy facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on 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 New York but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport is designed for comfortable and engaging layovers, with attractions such as indoor gardens, art installations, rest zones, and family-friendly play areas located throughout the terminals. With a longer connection, you may have time to explore Jewel Changi Airport, which features a striking indoor waterfall, walking trails, and additional dining and shopping options.

If your layover is more than about 5–6 hours, you can consider joining an official transit tour of Singapore, subject to eligibility and timings, to briefly experience the city before returning airside. For shorter connections, staying within the transit area allows you to make use of shower facilities, quiet corners, and a variety of dining choices.

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

New York operates on Eastern Time, which is UTC−5 in winter and UTC−4 during daylight saving time, typically from March to early November. Milan follows Central European Time, UTC+1 in winter and UTC+2 in summer. This means Milan is usually 6 hours ahead of New York in winter and 6 hours ahead in summer when both observe daylight saving time, and 5 hours ahead during the brief transition periods when only one region has changed clocks.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Milan when flying from New York 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 (New York–Singapore and Singapore–Milan) 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 Milan 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 New York–Milan 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.
