Flights from Switzerland to Seattle (SEA)

Yes. On the long-haul sectors between Zurich, Singapore, and Seattle, you can enjoy in-flight dining with multi-course meals tailored to your cabin class, including regional and international options. Special meals can be requested in advance to suit specific dietary needs. On eligible cabins, you may be able to use our Book the Cook service from Singapore, pre-ordering a main course from a wider menu.

Flights between Switzerland and the United States of America usually follow the piece concept. In Economy Class and Premium Economy Class, you can generally check at least one piece of checked baggage. In Business Class and First Class, higher checked baggage allowances apply. All customers may also bring cabin baggage within size and piece limits for their cabin. Exact allowances depend on your route, fare type, and KrisFlyer status, so please check your e-ticket or our website before travelling.

Yes, Wi-Fi is available on most flights once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free, 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 and additional users can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

Most journeys from Switzerland to Seattle connect through Singapore Changi Airport. If you have a longer layover, you can join a free transit tour of the city, subject to timing and eligibility, or enjoy the airports themed gardens, rest areas, and swimming pool. For shorter layovers, relax in the public seating zones, explore the extensive shopping and dining options, or freshen up in a transit hotel or shower facility. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait, it is an integral part of your journey.

Zurich operates on Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) and Central European Summer Time (CEST, UTC+2 from late March to late October). Seattle uses Pacific Time (PT, UTC−8) and Pacific Daylight Time (UTC−7 from March to early November). This means Zurich is typically 9 hours ahead of Seattle in winter and 8 hours ahead in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Seattle 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 Seattle, 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.
