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 make use of extensive airside facilities including themed gardens, quiet rest areas, and family-friendly spaces. For longer layovers, you may join the airport’s official transit tours into the city, which require a minimum connection time of around 5.5 to 6 hours. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

At Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN), eligible customers may relax in the Premium Lounge before departure. During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers can access the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on travel class and membership status.

Guangzhou follows China Standard Time (UTC+8) year-round and does not observe daylight saving time. Male operates on Maldives Time (UTC+5), also without daylight saving time. This means Male is 3 hours behind Guangzhou throughout the year.

We recommend arriving at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure to Singapore. This allows enough time for check-in, security, and immigration before you connect onward to Male.

If both sectors from Guangzhou to Singapore and Singapore to Male are on a single Singapore Airlines booking, we will usually check your bags through to Male. You should still confirm the baggage tag destination at check-in and follow airport signs at Singapore Changi Airport for transit passengers.

Transit visa requirements depend on your nationality and travel documents. Many travellers do not need a visa for airside transit in Singapore, but some do. We recommend checking the latest entry and transit rules with the relevant authorities or your local Singapore mission before you travel.
