Flights from Singapore (SIN) to Japan

Yes, meals are served on all Singapore Airlines flights from Singapore to Japan. You can look forward to in-flight dining with curated menus featuring regional and international dishes, along with a choice of beverages. We also offer a selection of special meals that can be requested in advance to suit different dietary needs. On selected routes and cabins, Book the Cook lets you pre-order specific main courses before your flight. A range of hot and cold drinks, including our signature Singapore Sling in selected cabins, is available throughout your journey.

On flights between Singapore and Japan, we generally use the weight concept for checked baggage. Allowances depend on your cabin class and KrisFlyer tier. In Economy Class and Premium Economy Class, you can usually check in a generous baggage allowance, while Business Class and First Class enjoy higher limits. All customers may bring cabin baggage on board, with size and weight limits varying by cabin class. Exact entitlements are shown during booking and on your e-ticket.

Yes, Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Singapore to Japan once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please ensure your membership number is added to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members, or those who prefer, can purchase Wi-Fi 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.

Across our Singapore to Japan routes, you can travel in First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class, or Economy Class, depending on the city and aircraft. Services to Tokyo offer all four cabin classes on some Boeing 777-300ER flights, while other Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka flights operated by Boeing 787-10 and Airbus A350-900 aircraft feature a combination of Business Class and Economy Class, with Premium Economy Class on selected Tokyo services.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches, with seat width up to 19 inches, depending on the aircraft. Premium Economy Class, available on selected Tokyo flights, offers about 38 inches of pitch and up to 20 inches of seat width. In Business Class on our Boeing 777-300ER, Boeing 787-10, and Airbus A350-900 aircraft, you can enjoy a fully flat bed with direct aisle access on many configurations. First Class on selected Boeing 777-300ER flights to Tokyo offers a spacious seat that converts into a fully flat bed. Exact layouts may vary slightly between aircraft types.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Japan. 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.

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.

If you have a layover at Singapore Changi Airport on your journey to Japan, you can make use of gardens, themed zones, rest areas, and a wide range of dining and shopping options within the terminals. For longer connections, you may wish to explore additional facilities such as swimming pools or transit hotels, subject to availability and time. Shorter layovers are often best spent relaxing near your departure gate and enjoying a meal or a quiet space to freshen up. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it's an integral part of your journey.

Japan, including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, is typically 1 hour ahead of Singapore. Japan does not observe daylight saving time, so this one-hour difference remains constant throughout the year.

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