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.

If you have enough time between flights, Singapore Changi Airport offers a free official transit tour programme that lets you see highlights of the city; you will generally need a layover of at least 5.5 to 6 hours to join. Shorter layovers can be comfortably spent airside, where you will find indoor gardens, quiet zones, rest areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping.

For longer transits, you might visit the various themed gardens, relax in a pay-per-use lounge, or book a room at the airport hotel to rest and freshen up. Clear signage and helpful staff make it easy to move between terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Eligible Singapore Airlines customers departing from Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU) may be able to access the TFU International First Class and Business Class Lounge, depending on their cabin class or frequent flyer status.

Chengdu follows China Standard Time (UTC+8) all year, with no daylight saving time. Dubai follows Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4), also without daylight saving time. This means Dubai is 4 hours behind Chengdu throughout the year; for example, when it is 12.00 in Chengdu, it is 08.00 in Dubai.

Our Chengdu-Dubai itineraries are sold with a connecting time that meets or exceeds the minimum transfer requirement at Singapore Changi Airport. In most cases, you will have enough time to change terminals if needed, pass security checks, and briefly explore the terminal. We recommend proceeding to your next gate once it is shown on the screens.

When planning your journey, check the validity of your travel documents and any entry requirements for the United Arab Emirates, including transit rules if your itinerary changes. Consider the warmer climate in Dubai and pack light, breathable clothing, along with any essentials you may want in your cabin baggage for the overnight or long sectors.

We recommend arriving at Chengdu Tianfu International Airport at least 2.5 to 3 hours before your scheduled departure to Singapore. This allows sufficient time for check-in, baggage drop, security checks, and immigration procedures before you proceed to the gate and prepare for boarding.
