For flights between Riyadh and Surabaya, our weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are: Economy Class, 25kg for Lite and Value fares, and 30kg for Standard and Flexi fares; Business Class, 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, and Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final allowance shown on your e-ticket applies to your booking, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Yes, Wi-Fi is available once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet on the Riyadh to Singapore and Singapore to Surabaya sectors. Wi-Fi is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can choose from paid plans. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On this route, both the Riyadh to Singapore and Singapore to Surabaya sectors are operated by the Airbus A350-900. In Economy Class you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width, while Business Class offers a fully flat bed with direct aisle access from every seat.

Flights from Riyadh to Surabaya via Singapore on the Airbus A350-900 offer a choice of Business Class and Economy Class on both sectors. This gives you a consistent cabin experience throughout your journey.

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.

During a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers travelling in premium cabins or holding qualifying KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status may be able to access facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, subject to their specific ticket and membership entitlements.

At Singapore Changi Airport, longer layovers can be used to join a city visit if you meet the minimum connection time and entry requirements, allowing you to experience highlights of Singapore between flights. Shorter transits are comfortable spent airside, where you can enjoy gardens, quiet rest areas, shops, and a wide choice of dining. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

For a single Singapore Airlines itinerary from Riyadh to Surabaya via Singapore, we usually check your baggage through to Surabaya, so you do not need to collect it during the layover at Singapore Changi Airport. Your baggage tags and boarding passes will confirm the final checked baggage destination.

Riyadh follows Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3) and does not observe daylight saving time. Surabaya follows Western Indonesia Time (UTC+7), also without daylight saving. Surabaya is therefore 4 hours ahead of Riyadh throughout the year.

You will depart from Riyadh and connect at Singapore Changi Airport before flying on to Surabaya. Both sectors on this route are operated by Singapore Airlines on the Airbus A350-900.

We recommend arriving at Riyadh Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time to allow for check-in, security, and immigration, especially as you will be connecting in Singapore for your onward flight to Surabaya.

Transit and entry requirements for Singapore and Indonesia depend on your nationality and travel history. We recommend checking the latest information with the relevant embassies or official government websites before you travel, and ensuring your passport has sufficient validity for your trip.

When connecting in Singapore, follow the transit signs on arrival and check the screens for your departing gate to Surabaya. If your baggage is checked through, you can remain airside and proceed directly to your next departure gate, leaving time to relax, dine, or freshen up before boarding.
