On flights between Indonesia and Saudi Arabia, Singapore Airlines generally applies the weight-concept checked baggage allowance. For Economy Class, you can usually check in at least 25kg of baggage, while Business Class typically allows at least 40kg. Cabin baggage allowances apply on top of this, with each passenger entitled to bring at least one piece of cabin baggage within size and weight limits appropriate to their cabin. Specific allowances may vary by ticket type, so please review your booking for exact details.

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 is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

From Surabaya to Saudi Arabia, you can travel in Business Class or Economy Class. Both the Surabaya–Singapore and Singapore–Riyadh sectors offer these two cabins, though seat design and layout may differ between the Airbus A350-900 and the Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft.

In Economy Class, you can expect around a 32-inch seat pitch with up to a 19-inch seat width, depending on the aircraft. In Business Class, seats convert into fully flat beds, with every seat offering direct aisle access on widebody aircraft such as the Airbus A350-900. Cabin layouts may differ slightly between the Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 737-8 MAX, but all cabins are designed with comfort and personal space in mind.

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

Most journeys from Surabaya to Saudi Arabia connect via Singapore Changi Airport. For longer layovers, you can explore the airport’s themed gardens, visit attractions such as indoor waterfalls, or relax at a transit hotel. Shorter connections are easily filled with a sit-down meal, a quick shower, or quiet time in designated rest areas or eligible lounges. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Surabaya (Indonesia) operates on UTC+7. Riyadh, and most of Saudi Arabia, is on UTC+3 and does not observe daylight saving time. This means Riyadh is 4 hours behind Surabaya throughout the year.

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