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 offers many ways to spend your layover comfortably, from indoor gardens and quiet rest areas to children s play zones and a wide choice of dining and shopping. With a longer layover, you can join an official city tour, which typically requires at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights. For shorter connections, staying airside lets you enjoy the airport s amenities, including transit hotels and relaxation zones. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it s an integral part of your journey.

When departing from Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport, eligible Singapore Airlines customers may access the International First and Business Class Lounge, depending on their cabin class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status. Access is determined by the conditions of your departing flight from Chongqing.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers may be invited to use facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge First Class, SilverKris Lounge Business Class, or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Lounge entitlements are based on your onward flight from Singapore.

Entry and transit requirements depend on your nationality and travel history. We recommend checking the latest information with the New Zealand immigration authorities and ensuring your passport, visa, and any transit documents for Singapore are in order before you fly.

For international journeys from Chongqing to Auckland via Singapore, we recommend arriving at Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport at least 3 hours before departure. This allows enough time for check-in, security, and immigration procedures before boarding.

When connecting in Singapore, follow the transit signs to your next departure terminal and check the flight information displays. Most Chongqing–Auckland itineraries keep you airside, and your checked baggage is usually transferred automatically. Always confirm terminal and gate details on arrival, as they may change.

Depending on your layover duration and passport, you may be able to pass immigration and visit the city. Ensure you meet Singapore s entry requirements, allow plenty of time to return for security and boarding, and check your boarding time carefully before deciding to go landside.
