Flights between Germany (DE) and United States of America (US) follow the piece concept for checked baggage. For routes where Suites and First Class are offered, passengers in these cabins enjoy a higher checked baggage allowance in number of pieces than other cabins. Business Class and Premium Economy Class passengers are generally entitled to more pieces of checked baggage than Economy Class passengers. Cabin baggage limits also vary by cabin, with higher allowances in premium cabins. Your exact baggage allowance is shown during booking and on your e-ticket, and may differ based on your KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights 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 ensure your KrisFlyer membership number is added to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure to enjoy this benefit. Non-members and additional devices can use paid Wi-Fi plans. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

From Frankfurt, you may find all five cabin classes depending on the specific aircraft, while from Munich, flights are typically operated with Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class on the Airbus A350-900.

Specific configurations can differ between aircraft types on each route.

Most journeys between Germany and the United States of America with Singapore Airlines connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which offers abundant ways to spend your time. For longer layovers, you can join an official free transit tour into the city, subject to eligibility and schedules, or explore the airport's gardens, art installations, and rest areas. Shorter layovers are well spent enjoying lounges, quiet zones, spa facilities, or the many dining and shopping options in the terminals. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in United States of America 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 United States of America, 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.

Germany generally observes Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) and Central European Summer Time (CEST, UTC+2) from late March to late October. In the United States of America, New York is usually on Eastern Time (UTC-5, UTC-4 in daylight saving time), while Seattle, Los Angeles, and San Francisco are on Pacific Time (UTC-8, UTC-7 in daylight saving time). This means that, for example, New York is typically 6 hours behind Germany in winter and 6 hours behind during most of the summer, while West Coast cities are usually 9 hours behind Germany in winter and 9 hours behind during most of the summer, with exact offsets changing on the dates when each region switches to and from daylight saving time.
