On flights between the United States of America and India, we generally apply the piece concept for checked baggage.

Cabin baggage allowances also vary by cabin, but all customers may bring at least one cabin bag within size and weight limits, plus a small personal item. Exact entitlements are shown during booking and on your e-ticket, and may differ depending on your KrisFlyer status or specific fare type.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines 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 can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection supports messaging, email, and basic browsing, but is not designed for video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

Most journeys from the United States of America to Kochi connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which offers extensive amenities. For shorter layovers, stay airside to enjoy indoor gardens, walking trails, rest areas, showers, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. With a longer connection, you may be able to join an official transit tour of Singapore, subject to timing and eligibility, giving you a glimpse of the city before returning to your gate. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Kochi follows India Standard Time (IST, UTC+5:30) and does not observe daylight saving time. Seattle and San Francisco follow Pacific Time (UTC−8, or UTC−7 from roughly March to early November), so Kochi is 13.5 hours ahead in winter and 12.5 hours ahead in summer. Los Angeles also follows Pacific Time, with the same offset to Kochi. New York follows Eastern Time (UTC−5, or UTC−4 from roughly March to early November), so Kochi is 10.5 hours ahead in winter and 9.5 hours ahead in summer.

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