For flights between Rome and Auckland, our weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are: Economy Class (Lite and Value fares: 25kg; Standard and Flexi fares: 30kg), Premium Economy Class (35kg), and Business Class (40kg). Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. Cabin baggage allowances are: Economy Class and Premium Economy Class (1 piece up to 7kg), and Business Class (2 pieces, each up to 7kg).

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Rome to Auckland once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, and Economy Class and Premium Economy Class customers should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Paid plans are available for non-members. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Rome–Singapore and Singapore–Auckland sectors operated by the Airbus A350-900, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width. Premium Economy Class seats offer a 38-inch pitch with up to 20-inch seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with every seat offering direct aisle access.

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 be able to access the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge at Singapore Changi Airport.

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 Rome but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport offers a wide range of facilities that make layovers comfortable and enjoyable, from indoor gardens and themed zones to rest areas and shower facilities. For longer layovers, you can consider joining an official transit city tour, which usually requires a minimum of around 5.5 to 6 hours between flights. For shorter connections, staying airside allows you to enjoy dining, shopping, and relaxation spaces near your gate. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Rome follows Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) roughly from late March to late October. Auckland observes New Zealand Standard Time (UTC+12) and New Zealand Daylight Time (UTC+13) roughly from late September to early April. This means Auckland is usually 11 or 12 hours ahead of Rome in the European winter, and about 10 or 11 hours ahead during the European summer, depending on overlapping daylight saving dates.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Auckland Airport when flying from Rome 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 (Rome–Singapore and Singapore–Auckland) 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 Auckland 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 Rome–Auckland 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.
