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 themed gardens and art installations to rest areas and children’s play zones. For longer layovers, you may be able to join an official transit tour into the city, which usually requires several hours of buffer time between flights. Shorter connections are well spent exploring the terminals dining and shopping, or relaxing in a lounge or quiet zone. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

In Hong Kong, eligible customers may access the SilverKris Lounge (First Class) and SilverKris Lounge (Business Class). During your layover at Singapore, eligible travellers can use The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance tier.

When both sectors are on a single Singapore Airlines ticket, we usually check your baggage through from Hong Kong to Ho Chi Minh City. You normally do not need to collect it in Singapore. Your baggage tags and boarding passes at check-in will confirm the final destination and any requirements.

Hong Kong operates on Hong Kong Time (UTC+8) all year. Ho Chi Minh City uses Indochina Time (UTC+7) and does not observe daylight saving time. This means Ho Chi Minh City is 1 hour behind Hong Kong throughout the year.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality, length of stay, and purpose of visit. We recommend checking with the relevant embassy or consulate, or your local authorities, before you travel to confirm the latest entry rules for Vietnam.

From Tan Son Nhat International Airport, you can reach central Ho Chi Minh City by taxi, app-based ride services, airport buses, or private transfers. Travel times vary with traffic, so allow extra time during peak hours and check locally for the most suitable options.

Mobile coverage in Ho Chi Minh City is generally good in urban areas, and Wi-Fi is widely available in hotels, cafés, and many public spaces. For data on the go, you can consider purchasing a local SIM card or eSIM on arrival and confirm the available packages with providers at the airport or in town.

As in any large city, stay aware of your belongings, especially in busy areas and markets, and use hotel safes for valuables where possible. Drink safe water, follow local guidance on food hygiene, and consider travel insurance that covers medical needs during your stay.
