Premium Economy Class passengers have 35kg. Business Class passengers have 40kg, and First Class passengers have 50kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Chengdu to Dubai once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free unlimited Wi-Fi, and Economy Class and Premium Economy Class members should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. 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 Chengdu to Singapore sector, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch and up to 19-inch seat width, while Business Class seats convert into fully flat beds with direct aisle access on the Boeing 787-10. On the Singapore to Dubai sector, Economy Class provides a 32-inch pitch and up to 19-inch seat width, Premium Economy Class offers a 38-inch pitch and up to 20-inch seat width, and Business Class and First Class feature fully flat beds for added comfort.

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. Eligible passengers may relax in options such as The Private Room, SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge during their transit, subject to operating hours and access rules. Other options, like purchasing a day pass at a pay-per-use lounge, are also available.

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 Chengdu but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

If you have a longer layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can join one of the official free transit tours into the city, available for passengers with sufficient connection time, typically from around 5.5 hours upwards. These tours let you see highlights of Singapore while your baggage remains checked through.

For shorter layovers, staying airside at Changi Airport is very comfortable, with themed gardens, rest zones, play areas, and art installations throughout the terminals. You can also enjoy showers, quiet seating areas, and a wide choice of dining options between flights.

If you prefer extra rest, consider booking an airport hotel or nap facility within or close to the terminals for a few hours. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Chengdu follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8 year-round and does not observe daylight saving time. Dubai follows Gulf Standard Time, which is UTC+4 and also does not use daylight saving time. Dubai is 4 hours behind Chengdu throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Dubai International Airport when flying from Chengdu 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 (Chengdu–Singapore and Singapore–Dubai) 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 Dubai 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 Chengdu–Dubai 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.
