Flights from Philippines to India

Yes, we serve meals on all flights from the Philippines to India. You will enjoy a curated selection of inflight meals that reflect both international and Asian flavours, with options that are tailored to the time of day and route. We also offer a range of special meals that can be requested in advance to suit different preferences and dietary needs.

On many medium- and long-haul routes, you can use our Book the Cook service in eligible cabins to reserve selected main courses before your flight, giving you even more choice.

Flights between the Philippines (PH) and India (IN) follow our standard weight-concept baggage policy, as both countries are outside the Americas. For routes where Economy Class is available, the checked baggage allowance is typically 25kg per passenger. For Premium Economy Class, where offered on some Bengaluru services, the allowance is usually 35kg. For Business Class, the checked baggage allowance is normally 40kg. All customers may also bring cabin baggage within set size and weight limits, which vary by cabin class.

Exact allowances can depend on your specific fare type, KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status, and any promotional conditions, so please check your e-ticket or our website before you travel.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines aircraft once the flight reaches cruising altitude above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free, unlimited in-flight Wi-Fi in all cabins; if you are travelling in Premium Economy Class or Economy Class, please add your membership number to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure to enjoy this benefit. Non-members and some fare types can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board.

The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing. It is not designed for data-heavy activities such as video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers, which may be restricted to ensure a stable service for all passengers.

On routes between the Philippines and India, we offer a selection of cabin classes depending on the aircraft and specific flight. Across the network, you can choose from Business Class, Premium Economy Class on selected services to and from Bengaluru, and Economy Class.

Some sectors, especially those operated by the Airbus A350-900 or Boeing 787-10, may feature different cabin products or layouts compared with flights operated by the Boeing 737-8 MAX. When you book, the cabin classes and aircraft type for your chosen flight will be clearly shown.

Legroom and seat space vary by cabin class and aircraft type, but you can expect generous comfort across all cabins available on these routes. In Economy Class, seats typically offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, designed for good support on medium- to long-haul journeys. In Premium Economy Class, available on some Bengaluru routes, you usually enjoy around 38-inch seat pitch and up to 20-inch seat width, along with additional recline.

In Business Class, your seat converts into a fully flat bed, and on our wide-body aircraft every seat usually has direct aisle access. Aircraft and configuration can differ between flights from Manila and Cebu, and between sectors operated by Airbus A350-900, Boeing 787-10, and Boeing 737-8 MAX.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections from the Philippines to India, with most itineraries transiting through Singapore Changi Airport. At Changi, eligible customers may access lounges such as our SilverKris Lounge or partner lounges, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections from Philippines to India. Eligibility is based on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, determined by the flight departing the layover airport. Other options such as purchasing a day pass 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.

The Next Segment Rule: Eligibility is based on the flight immediately departing that airport.

Most journeys from the Philippines to India with Singapore Airlines include a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, which is well known for its comfortable transit experience. For shorter layovers, you can stay airside and enjoy gardens, quiet rest areas, play zones, plentiful dining options, and extensive duty-free shopping. Depending on your terminal, you may also find swimming pools, snooze lounges, and pay-per-use lounges.

For longer layovers that meet eligibility criteria, you can consider signing up for a city tour organised from the airport, or plan a short independent visit into Singapore, bearing in mind immigration and visa requirements. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

The Philippines uses Philippine Time (UTC+8) all year, without daylight saving. India uses Indian Standard Time (UTC+5:30) nationwide, including in cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kochi, Kolkata, Hyderabad, and Ahmedabad, and also does not observe daylight saving time. This means India is 2 hours 30 minutes behind the Philippines throughout the year, so when it is 12:00 in Manila or Cebu, it is 09:30 on the same day in all major Indian cities.

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