Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers with a layover in Singapore. Your eligibility is based on your class of travel or your KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, and it is determined by your flight leaving Singapore. Other options, like purchasing a day pass at a pay-per-use lounge, are also available.

Singapore Changi Airport is designed to make layovers relaxing and enjoyable. If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, you may join an official transit tour into the city, allowing you to see highlights of Singapore before returning to the airport. For shorter layovers, you can enjoy landscaped gardens, quiet rest zones, children’s play areas, and a wide range of dining and shopping.

Many travellers choose to refresh with a shower, stretch their legs along the walking paths, or simply relax by the indoor features and viewing areas. With clear signage and efficient security, moving between terminals is straightforward, so you can use your time in the way that suits you best. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

At Medan's Kualanamu International Airport (KNO), eligible Singapore Airlines passengers may be able to use partner facilities such as the Saphire Mandai International Lounge, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Lounge access is determined by your departing flight and eligibility at the time of travel.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers travelling on Singapore Airlines may have access to facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status.

Medan operates on Western Indonesia Time (WIB), which is UTC+7 all year. Kuala Lumpur uses Malaysia Time (MYT), which is UTC+8 all year. Kuala Lumpur is 1 hour ahead of Medan throughout the year, as neither city observes daylight saving time.

We recommend arriving at Kualanamu International Airport at least 2 hours before your scheduled departure time for flights to Kuala Lumpur via Singapore. This allows enough time for check-in, security, and immigration, especially during busy periods or if you need special assistance.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality and the purpose and length of your stay in Malaysia. We recommend checking the latest entry regulations with the relevant authorities or your nearest consulate before you travel, and ensuring your passport has sufficient validity and blank pages.

If your Medan–Singapore and Singapore–Kuala Lumpur flights are booked on a single Singapore Airlines itinerary, we will normally check your baggage through to Kuala Lumpur. Your baggage tag and boarding passes will confirm this at check-in. If you hold separate tickets, you may need to collect and re-check your bags in Singapore.

Singapore Changi Airport is designed for smooth transfers, and our ticketing system offers itineraries that meet the required minimum connection time. If you are booking flights separately, we recommend allowing extra time to clear formalities, collect baggage if needed, and reach your next check-in counter. Always follow the connection guidance shown on your itinerary.
