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 join a free transit tour into the city if your connection meets the minimum layover time, usually around 5.5 to 6 hours. For shorter layovers, stay airside to enjoy gardens, rest areas, showers, play zones, and a wide range of dining options.

At Kathmandu Airport, eligible Singapore Airlines passengers may be invited to use the Horizon Lounge before departing for Singapore. Lounge access depends on your cabin class, fare type, or frequent flyer status, and offers a quieter space to relax, refresh, or work before boarding.

If your layover in Singapore is long enough and you meet entry requirements for Singapore, you may choose to leave the airport to explore the city or join an official transit tour. We recommend allowing sufficient time for immigration, travel to and from the city, and security checks before your onward flight.
