Checked baggage allowances are 25kg for Economy Class Lite and Value fares and 30kg for Economy Class Standard and Flexi fares, 35kg for Premium Economy Class, 40kg for Business Class, and 50kg for First Class. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. Cabin baggage allowances are 1 piece up to 7kg in Economy Class and Premium Economy Class, and 2 pieces each up to 7kg in Business Class and First Class.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Zurich to Busan once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; 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 access 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 both sectors between Zurich, Singapore, and Busan, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of about 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with direct aisle access for every seat, designed for comfortable long-haul rest. On the Zurich to Singapore sector, Premium Economy Class offers a 38-inch seat pitch and up to 20 inches of seat width, while First Class features a spacious fully flat bed for added privacy and 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. 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 Zurich but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport offers extensive facilities to enjoy during your layover, from indoor gardens and art installations to rest areas and children’s play zones. With a longer connection, you can consider joining the airport’s official transit tour, which usually requires several hours between flights. For shorter stays, you can explore themed zones, relaxation spaces, and a wide choice of dining within the terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Zurich follows Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from roughly late March to late October. Busan follows Korea Standard Time (UTC+9) year-round. This means Busan is 8 hours ahead of Zurich in winter and 7 hours ahead during Zurich’s summer time.

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