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 enjoy a range of amenities, including indoor gardens, quiet rest zones, and family-friendly play areas. For longer transits, official transit tours into the city are available for passengers with sufficient connection time. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

When flying from Beijing on Singapore Airlines, eligible customers departing from Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) may use the Air China Lounge, while those departing from Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX) may use the BCS Lounge.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers may be able to access The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge. Eligibility is determined by your cabin class and frequent flyer status on the onward flight from Singapore.

Beijing follows China Standard Time (UTC+8), and Tokyo follows Japan Standard Time (UTC+9). Neither city observes daylight saving time, so Tokyo is consistently 1 hour ahead of Beijing throughout the year.

From Beijing, your flight departs from either Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) or Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX), depending on your booking, and arrives at Singapore Changi Airport for your connection. From Singapore, you will continue to Tokyo on a Boeing 777-300ER service to one of Tokyo’s main airports, as indicated on your ticket.

For this international journey with a connection in Singapore, we recommend arriving at your Beijing departure airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time. This allows enough time for check-in, security checks, and any immigration procedures before boarding.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality and the purpose and length of your stay in Japan, as well as any conditions for transiting through Singapore. We recommend checking with the relevant embassies or official immigration websites and ensuring your travel documents are in order before your trip.

When you travel on a single Singapore Airlines itinerary from Beijing to Tokyo via Singapore, we will normally check your baggage through to your final destination. Your baggage tags and boarding passes will show your final routing, so please confirm these details at check-in.

On arrival in Tokyo, you will pass through immigration and customs before entering the arrival hall. Clear signage and airport staff help guide you to trains, buses, and other onward transport options. We recommend checking local transport information in advance so you can move smoothly towards your final destination.
