Eligible customers in premium cabins on selected sectors of this route can use our Book the Cook service, pre-ordering from an expanded menu for a more personalised dining experience. Availability varies by cabin and departure city.

For flights between Johannesburg and Phnom Penh, our weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are: Economy Class (25kg for Lite and Value fares, 30kg for Standard and Flexi fares), Premium Economy Class (35kg), and Business Class (40kg). Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. For cabin baggage, Economy Class and Premium Economy Class customers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, while Business Class customers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final allowance shown on your e-ticket is the one that applies to your journey, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines services once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class and Premium Economy Class customers should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans on board. The connection is designed for messaging, email, and basic browsing, and does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On the Johannesburg to Singapore sector operated by the Airbus A350-900, Economy Class offers a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, Premium Economy Class provides a 38-inch pitch with up to 20-inch seat width, and Business Class features a fully flat bed with direct aisle access at every seat. On the Singapore to Phnom Penh sector operated by the Boeing 737-8 MAX, Economy Class offers a comfortable layout similar in pitch to our long-haul fleet, and Business Class also provides a fully flat bed with 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 use facilities such as 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 Johannesburg but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

If your layover is long enough, you can join one of Singapore Changi Airport’s official transit tours into the city, which usually require at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights. These guided options offer a relaxed way to see highlights before returning for your onward sector. For shorter layovers, staying airside is very comfortable, with themed gardens, rest areas, play zones, and quiet corners for work or relaxation. Selected terminals also feature attractions such as indoor greenery and water features that help the time pass pleasantly. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Johannesburg follows South Africa Standard Time, which is UTC+2 all year and does not observe daylight saving time. Phnom Penh follows Indochina Time, which is UTC+7 and also does not change seasonally. Phnom Penh is therefore 5 hours ahead of Johannesburg throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Phnom Penh International Airport when flying from Johannesburg 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 (Johannesburg–Singapore and Singapore–Phnom Penh) 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 Phnom Penh 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 Johannesburg–Phnom Penh 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.
