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.

With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can choose between exploring the city on an official transit tour, which typically requires at least 5.5 to 6 hours of available time, or staying airside to enjoy the airport’s facilities. Shorter layovers are ideal for visiting indoor gardens, rest areas, and family zones inside the terminals.

If you prefer to remain in transit, you will find plenty of options, including quiet seating corners, spa services, and a wide variety of dining outlets and shops. There are also transit hotels within the terminals for longer rests between flights. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

At Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, eligible Singapore Airlines customers may be invited to use partner facilities such as The Club at SEA before departure. Lounge access depends on your cabin class or your KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, and is confirmed at check-in or on your boarding pass.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers may be invited to the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Our airport teams will guide you to the appropriate lounge and confirm your access on the day.

Seattle follows Pacific Time, which is UTC-8 in standard time (roughly November to March) and UTC-7 in daylight saving time (roughly March to November). Medan follows Western Indonesia Time, UTC+7 year-round. This means Medan is 15 hours ahead of Seattle in winter and 14 hours ahead in summer.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality, length of stay, and travel purpose. We recommend checking the latest entry regulations with the relevant embassy or consulate, and confirming any transit requirements for Singapore before you fly from Seattle to Medan.

For international flights from Seattle to Medan via Singapore, we recommend arriving at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure. This allows enough time for check-in, security screening, and reaching your departure gate comfortably.

On arrival at Kualanamu International Airport, you can choose from options such as airport trains, taxis, and private transfers to reach central Medan. Travel times vary with traffic and choice of transport, so it is best to check current options and timings on arrival or in advance with your hotel.

Mobile coverage in Medan is generally good in urban areas, and you will find Wi-Fi in many hotels, cafes, and shopping centres. For data and calls on the go, consider purchasing a local SIM card or arranging an international roaming package, and check compatibility for your device before travel.
