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 your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers may be invited to relax in our SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their cabin class and frequent flyer status. Lounge access is determined by your departing flight from Singapore and your membership tier.

At Singapore Changi Airport, longer layovers can be used to join an official city tour if your connection time meets the minimum requirement of around 5.5 to 6 hours. This lets you see highlights of Singapore before returning for your onward flight. For shorter layovers, you can enjoy airside attractions such as themed gardens, quiet rest areas, family zones, and an extensive choice of dining and shopping.

If you prefer to freshen up or rest, consider using airport hotels or relaxation facilities located within or near the terminals. Clear wayfinding and frequent shuttle services make it easy to move between terminals for your connecting gate.

Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Seattle is in the America/Los_Angeles time zone, which is UTC-8 in winter and UTC-7 during daylight saving time (approximately March to early November). Busan is in the Asia/Seoul time zone, which is UTC+9 year-round. This means Busan is 17 hours ahead of Seattle in winter and 16 hours ahead in summer.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality, length of stay, and purpose of travel. We recommend checking with the relevant South Korean authorities or your nearest consulate before departure to ensure you have the correct documents for your trip from Seattle to Busan.

From Busan's airport, you can reach the city centre by public transport, airport bus, or taxi. Travel times vary depending on traffic and your final destination. We recommend checking current transport options and routes on arrival, or in advance, to choose the option that best suits your schedule.

For international flights from Seattle to Busan via Singapore, we recommend arriving at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time. This allows enough time for check-in, security screening, and boarding, especially during busy travel periods.

Pack according to the season in Busan, with lighter clothing for the warmer months and layers, including a warm coat, for cooler winter days. Comfortable walking shoes are helpful for exploring hilly neighbourhoods and coastal paths. You may also want a universal travel adaptor and to check local guidelines for electronic devices.
