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 Tokyo but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only. Eligible passengers may use facilities such as The Private Room, SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and KrisFlyer Gold Lounge at Singapore (SIN).

Singapore Changi Airport offers many ways to relax between your Tokyo and Seattle flights. For longer layovers of around 5.5 hours or more, you may join an official transit tour into the city, subject to eligibility and timing, to see key sights before returning airside. For shorter connections, you can explore the airports gardens, quiet rest areas, spa and shower facilities, or family zones. There are also cinemas, interactive installations, and a wide choice of dining options to help the time pass comfortably. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Tokyo follows Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) and does not observe daylight saving time. Seattle follows Pacific Time, which is UTC−8 during Pacific Standard Time (approximately November to March) and UTC−7 during Pacific Daylight Time (approximately March to November). This means Seattle is typically 17 hours behind Tokyo in winter and 16 hours behind in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport when flying from Tokyo 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 (Tokyo–Singapore and Singapore–Seattle) 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 Seattle 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 Tokyo–Seattle 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.
