Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers with a layover in Singapore.

We recommend checking with the nearest Philippines embassy or consulate, or your government travel advisory, well before departure to confirm the latest entry and transit requirements.

For flights from Adelaide to Manila via Singapore, we recommend arriving at Adelaide Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time. This allows enough time for check-in, security screening, and immigration formalities before you board your flight.

Your journey starts at Adelaide Airport (ADL), with a connection at Singapore Changi Airport (SIN), before arriving at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) in Manila. Follow airport signage and information screens at each point to ensure a smooth transfer.

On arrival at Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila, you can choose from options such as taxis, app-based car services, or arranged hotel transfers to reach the city. Journey times vary with traffic, so it is best to allow extra time and confirm the latest transport details locally.
