Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Surabaya once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet.

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.

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 Ho Chi Minh City but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport offers a wide range of ways to spend your layover, from themed gardens and art installations to quiet rest areas and transit hotels. With sufficient time before your next flight, you can also consider the airport's official transit tours into the city, which usually require at least a 5.5-hour layover. For shorter connections, you can stay airside, explore the terminals, enjoy dining and shopping, or simply relax in comfortable seating areas. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Ho Chi Minh City follows Indochina Time (UTC+7) and does not observe daylight saving time. Surabaya follows Western Indonesia Time (UTC+7), also without daylight saving time. This means there is typically no time difference between Ho Chi Minh City and Surabaya throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Juanda International Airport in Surabaya when flying from Ho Chi Minh City 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 (Ho Chi Minh City–Singapore and Singapore–Surabaya) 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 Surabaya 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 Ho Chi Minh City–Surabaya 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.
