Flights from Shenzhen (SZX) to Taipei (TPE)

In-flight Dining
On the Shenzhen to Singapore and Singapore to Taipei sectors, you will be served meals appropriate to the time of day, with menus designed to offer familiar favourites and regional flavours in both Business Class and Economy Class.

Special Meals
We offer a variety of special meals that cater to common dietary requirements. You can request these when booking or through Manage Booking before your flight, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

Book the Cook
On eligible sectors and in eligible cabins on this route, you can use our Book the Cook service to pre-select from a wider range of main courses. This allows you to personalise your dining experience before you depart.

Beverage Service
A selection of hot and cold drinks is available throughout the flight, including juices, soft drinks, and hot beverages. Our signature Singapore Sling is also available on board, adding a distinctive touch to your journey.

For flights between Shenzhen and Taipei, our weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are as follows: Economy Class passengers have 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. Business Class passengers have a 40kg checked baggage allowance. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, while Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final allowance applicable to your trip is shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Shenzhen to Taipei once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class and Premium Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Paid plans are available for non-members. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Shenzhen to Singapore Boeing 737-8 MAX sector and the Singapore to Taipei Airbus A350-900 sector, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of around 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width. This provides a comfortable amount of space for regional flights.

Business Class on both sectors features a fully flat bed with generous personal space. Every seat has direct aisle access on the Airbus A350-900 sector, offering convenient movement and added privacy during your journey.

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.

At Singapore (SIN), eligible passengers may relax in the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin and status.

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 Shenzhen but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport offers a wide range of facilities for layovers, including themed gardens, rest areas, and family-friendly play spaces. With at least 5.5 to 6 hours of transit time, you can consider joining one of the airport’s official transit tours into the city, subject to eligibility and operating hours.

For shorter layovers, staying airside gives you access to comfortable seating zones, snooze areas, spa facilities, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. Selected terminals also feature attractions such as indoor greenery and art installations that help break up your transit time.

If you prefer privacy, you can book an airport hotel or lounge with shower facilities to refresh between flights. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Shenzhen follows China Standard Time (UTC+8), and Taipei follows a similar time zone at UTC+8. Neither city observes daylight saving time, so there is no time difference between Shenzhen and Taipei at any time of the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Taipei Taoyuan International Airport when flying from Shenzhen 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 (Shenzhen–Singapore and Singapore–Taipei) 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 Taipei 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 Shenzhen–Taipei 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.
