Yes, you will be served meals on all Singapore Airlines flights from Xiamen to Thailand. In-flight dining includes regionally inspired and international dishes, tailored to the time of day and sector length. You can request special meals in advance to suit your dietary needs on eligible fares.

Flights between China and Thailand on Singapore Airlines generally use the weight concept for checked baggage. In Economy Class, you can usually check in at least 25kg of baggage, while Business Class offers a higher allowance. Cabin baggage is limited by both size and weight, and you may bring one or two pieces on board depending on your cabin.
Only baggage allowances for the cabins booked on your ticket apply, and they may vary with your fare type and KrisFlyer status. Your exact entitlements are shown during booking and on your e-ticket.
Remember to check restricted items and size limits before travelling to ensure a smooth journey through the airport.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Xiamen to Thailand once the aircraft reaches above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please add your membership number at least 1.5 hours before departure.
Non-members and additional devices can connect using paid Wi-Fi plans, which are suitable for messaging apps, email, and basic web browsing. Coverage and performance can vary slightly by aircraft type and route.
For best performance, we recommend avoiding data-heavy activities such as video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers while using in-flight Wi-Fi.

On flights from Xiamen to both Bangkok and Phuket, you can travel in Business Class or Economy Class. The Xiamen–Singapore sectors are operated by the Boeing 737-8 MAX with these two cabin classes.
From Singapore to Bangkok, flights use the Boeing 787-10, also offering Business Class and Economy Class. From Singapore to Phuket, flights are typically on the Boeing 737-8 MAX with the same two-cabin layout.
Cabin configurations may vary slightly between aircraft types, but all cabins provide comfortable seating and our signature Singapore Airlines service.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of around 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width, designed for good legroom on medium-haul flights. Seats are ergonomically shaped to support you through the journey.
In Business Class, you will enjoy a fully flat bed on eligible wide-body aircraft and a spacious reclining seat with generous legroom and elevated privacy on narrow-body aircraft. Every Business Class seat offers significantly more space to stretch out compared with Economy Class.
Configurations differ slightly between the Boeing 737-8 MAX and Boeing 787-10, but all cabins are designed to maximise comfort and personal space on flights between Xiamen and Thailand.

Most journeys from Xiamen to Thailand connect through Singapore Changi Airport, which offers many ways to relax or explore between flights. For longer layovers, you can consider the free city transit tour, subject to eligibility and timing, or enjoy themed gardens, art installations, and quiet rest areas inside the terminals.
Shorter layovers are easily filled with a visit to the airport's attractions, such as indoor greenery, play areas, and curated exhibitions, or simply by enjoying a meal at one of the many dining outlets. Retail options range from travel essentials to premium brands if you wish to shop.
If you prefer to recharge, you can head to a pay-per-use lounge, spa, or transit hotel within the airport. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Xiamen follows China Standard Time (UTC+8), while both Bangkok and Phuket follow Indochina Time (UTC+7). This means Thailand is typically one hour behind Xiamen throughout the year, as neither country observes daylight saving time.

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