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.

If your layover is at least 5.5 to 6 hours, you can consider joining one of Singapore Changi Airports official transit tours, which take you into the city to see highlights before returning in time for your next flight. For shorter layovers, staying airside is very comfortable, with themed gardens, rest areas, play zones, and a wide variety of dining and shopping options spread across the terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

At Manchester Airport, eligible Singapore Airlines passengers may be invited to use partner lounges such as 1903 Lounge or Escape Lounge before departure, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Lounge access eligibility will be confirmed at check-in or in your booking details.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers may have access to The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance tier. Your boarding pass will indicate your lounge entitlement.
