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.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers may have access to facilities such as The Private Room, SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status. Lounge access is determined by the class and airline of your onward flight from Singapore.

Singapore Changi Airport is designed for comfortable layovers of all lengths. With a sufficiently long connection, you can consider joining one of the official transit tours into the city, which usually require a layover of at least about 5.5 to 6 hours. These guided trips let you see key highlights before returning to the terminal.

If you prefer to stay airside, you will find indoor gardens, quiet rest areas, children’s play zones, and walking paths, as well as a wide choice of dining and shopping. Some terminals also offer pay-per-use lounges, nap areas, and even spa services. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

At Hong Kong International Airport, eligible Singapore Airlines customers can relax before departure in the SilverKris Lounge (First Class) or the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class). Lounge access depends on your cabin class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status, and is linked to your Singapore Airlines flight departing Hong Kong.

Hong Kong follows Hong Kong Time, which is UTC+8 year-round. Colombo follows Sri Lanka Standard Time, which is UTC+5:30 throughout the year. This means Colombo is 2 hours 30 minutes behind Hong Kong at all times, as neither city observes daylight saving time.

You will depart from Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) and connect in Singapore before flying on to Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB), which serves Colombo. Both airports offer modern facilities, clear signage, and a range of services for departing, arriving, and transit passengers.

We recommend arriving at Hong Kong International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time for flights to Colombo via Singapore. This allows enough time for check-in, security screening, immigration, and a relaxed walk to your departure gate.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality and the purpose of your visit. We recommend checking the latest entry regulations and visa information with the relevant authorities or your nearest diplomatic mission before you travel from Hong Kong to Colombo.

On arrival at Bandaranaike International Airport, you will go through immigration, baggage claim, and customs. Keep your travel documents and arrival information easily accessible, and follow airport signs to the appropriate queues. Ground transport counters and information desks are available in the arrivals area.
