Non-members and additional users can purchase paid 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.

Most journeys from Mumbai to New Zealand include a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed for easy and enjoyable transits. For longer layovers, you can join a free transit tour of Singapore when available, or take your time exploring the airport's gardens, play areas, and art installations. Shorter connections can be spent relaxing in quiet zones, enjoying showers and dining options, or browsing the many shops across the terminals. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

New Zealand generally operates on New Zealand Standard Time (NZST), which is 6 hours 30 minutes ahead of Mumbai (India Standard Time) during India's year-round time and New Zealand's winter. During New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT), typically from late September to early April, Auckland and Christchurch move one hour ahead, making them 7 hours 30 minutes ahead of Mumbai. Always check closer to your travel dates, as daylight saving start and end dates can vary.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in New Zealand 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 New Zealand, 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.
