With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can enjoy a wide range of airside facilities, including themed gardens, rest areas, and family-friendly play spaces. For longer layovers, you may be able to join an official free transit tour into the city, typically available for layovers of about 5.5 hours or longer.

If you prefer to stay airside, explore the terminals at your own pace, relax in quiet zones, or visit one of the airport hotels for additional comfort.

Brisbane follows Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), which is UTC+10 throughout the year and does not observe daylight saving time. Tokyo follows Japan Standard Time (JST), which is UTC+9 and also does not observe daylight saving time. This means Tokyo is 1 hour behind Brisbane at all times of the year.

Flights from Singapore to Tokyo may arrive at different Tokyo-area airports, each with clear signage in English and efficient public transport links into the city. On arrival, follow the signs to immigration, baggage reclaim, and onward transport, and allow time to familiarise yourself with station routes for your final destination.

We recommend arriving at Brisbane Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time for flights to Tokyo via Singapore. This allows enough time to check in, drop your checked baggage, pass through security and border formalities, and make your way to the gate at a comfortable pace.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality, length of stay, and purpose of visit. Before travelling from Brisbane to Tokyo, please check the latest entry regulations with the relevant embassy or official government website, and ensure your passport has sufficient validity for your planned trip.

When connecting in Singapore, follow the transit signs on arrival and check the flight information screens for your next gate. If you are already checked through, you can remain airside, enjoy the terminal facilities, and proceed to your boarding gate in good time. Our staff are available to assist if you need guidance.
