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.

If your layover at Singapore Changi Airport is long enough, you can join an official transit tour into the city, which typically requires at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights. For shorter layovers, stay airside and enjoy gardens, themed rest areas, and other amenities throughout the terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

In Dhaka, eligible passengers departing on Singapore Airlines flights can access lounges such as the Balaka Executive Lounge or Sky Lounge at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, depending on their cabin class or frequent flyer status. Lounge access offers comfortable seating, refreshments, and a quieter space before your journey.

During your transit at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers may use our SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Lounge entitlements are based on the onward sector from Singapore, so please check your booking or ask our staff at check-in.

Dhaka follows Bangladesh Standard Time (UTC+6) year-round. Melbourne operates on Australian Eastern Standard Time (UTC+10) from roughly April to early October, and Australian Eastern Daylight Time (UTC+11) from early October to early April. This means Melbourne is 4 hours ahead of Dhaka during standard time, and 5 hours ahead during daylight time.

We recommend arriving at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure to Melbourne. This allows sufficient time for check-in, security checks, and immigration, especially during busy travel periods.

Visa requirements for travel from Dhaka to Melbourne depend on your nationality and purpose of visit. You should check the latest entry regulations with the relevant Australian authorities or your nearest embassy and ensure you obtain any required visa before your departure.

Australia has strict customs and quarantine regulations, particularly regarding food, plant materials, and animal products.
