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. Eligible customers may access facilities such as The Private Room, SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge.

Lounge Access Eligibility
Cabin Class: Complimentary for Suites, First, and Business Class passengers. Premium Economy and Economy travellers do not have access unless they hold eligible status.

Frequent Flyer Status: PPS Club and KrisFlyer Elite Gold (or Star Alliance Gold) members have access regardless of cabin class.

The 'Next Segment' Rule: Eligibility is based on the flight immediately departing that airport. For example, if you fly Economy from Kathmandu but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport offers an official transit tour for passengers with longer layovers, usually requiring at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights; this allows you to see highlights of the city before returning comfortably for your onward sector. For shorter layovers, you can enjoy airside attractions such as indoor gardens, relaxation zones, and dedicated rest areas. Families and solo travellers alike will find quiet corners, play areas, and a variety of dining options to refresh between flights. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Kathmandu operates on Nepal Time (UTC+5:45) all year. Sydney follows 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 Sydney is usually 4 hours 15 minutes, or 5 hours 15 minutes ahead of Kathmandu, depending on the time of year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Sydney Airport when flying from Kathmandu via Singapore on a single booking with Singapore Airlines.

Through-Check Conditions
For your bags to be sent directly to your final destination, the following general conditions must be met:

Single Itinerary: Both flight segments (Kathmandu–Singapore and Singapore–Sydney) must be under the same booking reference or PNR.

Layover Duration: Your connection in Singapore must be less than 24 hours. If your layover exceeds 24 hours, it is considered a stopover, and you will typically be required to collect your luggage and re-check it for your onward flight.

Partner Airlines: If your onward flight from Singapore to Sydney is operated by a partner airline, Singapore Airlines has through-check agreements that usually allow your bags to be tagged to your final destination.

You may be able to plan a stopover in Singapore on your Kathmandu–Sydney trip, subject to your ticket conditions and availability. When booking, you can search for multi-city options or speak with our customer service team or your travel agent, who can advise whether a stopover can be added to your itinerary.
