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 from many ways to relax and explore. If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, you can consider joining an official transit tour into the city to see select highlights before returning in time for your onward flight.

For shorter layovers, staying airside is still rewarding. The airport offers themed gardens, quiet zones, rest areas, and family-friendly facilities, alongside a wide range of dining and shopping. Some terminals also feature attractions such as indoor greenery and play spaces. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.
