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 themed gardens, rest areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping right inside the terminal. If you have a longer layover, you may be able to join an official transit tour into the city, which usually requires at least around 5.5 to 6 hours between flights. For shorter connections, you can make use of quiet zones, entertainment areas, and airport hotels to rest and refresh before continuing to Delhi. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

When departing from New York, eligible Singapore Airlines passengers may be able to access Lounge & Co at Newark Liberty International Airport, and the Virgin Clubhouse, Capital One Lounge, or Air India Maharaja Lounge at John F. Kennedy International Airport, depending on the departure airport, cabin class, and frequent flyer status.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible passengers departing for Delhi can access the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on your class of travel and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status.

Visa and entry requirements for India depend on your nationality, purpose of visit, and length of stay. We recommend checking with the relevant authorities or your nearest Indian mission, and reviewing the latest information before you book and again before you travel.

For flights from New York to Delhi via Singapore, we recommend arriving at the airport at least 3 hours before departure to allow time for check-in, security, and boarding. If you need special assistance or are travelling in a group, arriving a little earlier can be helpful.

On arrival at Indira Gandhi International Airport, you will find several options for getting into the city, including metro connections, pre-booked transfers, and taxis. Journey times can vary depending on traffic and time of day, so it is best to check local information on transport and travel conditions close to your arrival date.
