Flights from Manila (MNL) to Kochi (COK)

In-flight Dining
You will be served meals on both the Manila to Singapore and Singapore to Kochi sectors, with menus designed to suit regional tastes and the time of day. Portions are satisfying and served with thoughtful touches to make dining on board enjoyable.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals that can be requested in advance, catering to common dietary needs and preferences. To ensure availability, please select your preferred special meal when you manage your booking, at least 24 hours before departure.

Book the Cook
Eligible customers in Business Class can pre-select from an expanded range of main courses through our Book the Cook service on selected sectors of this journey. This allows you to confirm your preferred dish before you fly and dine on board with added peace of mind.

Beverage Service
A selection of hot and cold drinks is available throughout the flight, including juices, soft drinks, tea, and coffee. You can also enjoy our signature Singapore Sling cocktail on board, along with a curated range of other alcoholic beverages.

For flights between Manila and Kochi, the weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are as follows: in Economy Class, Lite and Value fares include 25kg, and Standard and Flexi fares include 30kg. In Business Class, you can check up to 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg in weight.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class customers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg. Business Class customers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final baggage allowance for your itinerary is shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights on this route once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, although Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On the Manila to Singapore sector, operated by the Airbus A350-900 or Boeing 787-10, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with generous personal space and direct aisle access.

On the Singapore to Kochi sector, operated by the Boeing 737-8 MAX, Economy Class also offers around 32 inches of pitch with up to 19 inches of seat width, while Business Class features recliner seats with ample legroom and enhanced privacy. Across both sectors, cabins are designed to maximise comfort within each class.

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.

With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can enjoy lush indoor gardens, quiet rest areas, and a wide range of dining and shopping without leaving the terminal. For longer connections, you may join an official transit tour into the city if your schedule meets the minimum layover time required. Shorter layovers are well spent exploring themed zones, relaxation corners, and entertainment facilities within the airport. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

In Manila, eligible Singapore Airlines customers can relax before departure in the SilverKris Lounge at Ninoy Aquino International Airport. During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, qualifying customers and members may be invited to facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin and membership status.

Manila follows the Asia/Manila time zone, which is UTC+8 and does not observe daylight saving time. Kochi follows the Asia/Calcutta time zone, which is UTC+5:30 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Kochi is therefore 2 hours 30 minutes behind Manila throughout the year.

For flights from Manila to Kochi via Singapore, we recommend arriving at Ninoy Aquino International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure. This allows enough time for check-in, immigration, security checks, and reaching the gate, especially during busy travel periods.

Visa and entry requirements for travel from Manila to Kochi depend on your nationality and the purpose and length of your stay. We recommend checking the latest information with the relevant Indian authorities or your local embassy, and ensuring your passport has sufficient validity before you travel.

When transiting in Singapore from Manila to Kochi, your checked baggage is normally tagged through to your final destination if both flights are on a single Singapore Airlines itinerary. Follow the transit signs on arrival, check the flight information screens for your next gate, and allow time to clear any required security checks between terminals.
