Eligible Singapore Airlines customers departing from Tokyo to Los Angeles can access partner lounges at Tokyo Narita or Tokyo Haneda, depending on the operating airport. Lounge access is based on your class of travel or your KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status linked to your departing flight from Tokyo.

In Tokyo Narita, eligible passengers may be invited to relax in facilities such as the ANA Suite Lounge, ANA Lounge, United Club, or Turkish Airlines Lounge. At Tokyo Haneda, eligible customers may be able to use the ANA Suite Lounge (Main Building) or ANA Lounge (Main Building), subject to operating terminal, cabin, and frequent flyer status.

For the long-haul flight from Tokyo to Los Angeles, we recommend arriving at the airport at least 3 hours before departure. This allows ample time for check-in, security procedures, and, if eligible, a relaxed visit to the lounge before boarding begins.

Tokyo follows Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) and does not observe daylight saving time. Los Angeles follows Pacific Time, which is Pacific Standard Time (UTC-8) from roughly November to March, and Pacific Daylight Time (UTC-7) from roughly March to November. This means Los Angeles is 17 or 16 hours behind Tokyo, depending on the month.

Visa and entry requirements for travel from Tokyo to Los Angeles depend on your nationality, purpose of visit, and length of stay. We recommend checking the latest guidance with the relevant United States authorities or your local embassy before you travel, and ensuring your passport has sufficient validity.

On arrival at Los Angeles International Airport, you will clear United States immigration and customs before exiting into the arrivals area. Allow time for formalities and baggage collection. From there you can choose between public transport, shared services, or private transfers into the city, and it is best to check current options in advance.

To minimise jet lag, consider gradually adjusting your sleep schedule before departure, staying hydrated during the flight, and moving around the cabin periodically. Once you arrive in Los Angeles, spending time in natural daylight and aligning meal times with local time can help your body adjust more smoothly.
