Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Hanoi to Colombo once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Paid plans are available for non-members. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Hanoi–Singapore and Singapore–Colombo sectors, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of around 32 inches, with seat widths of up to 19 inches, giving you space to sit comfortably and relax. Business Class provides a fully flat bed and every seat has direct aisle access, allowing you to rest or work in privacy throughout your journey.

On the Hanoi to Colombo route via Singapore operated by Singapore Airlines, you can choose between Business Class and Economy Class on both the Hanoi–Singapore and Singapore–Colombo sectors, allowing you to align comfort and services with your travel needs.

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 a wide range of amenities, including themed gardens, rest areas, play zones, and an extensive choice of dining and shopping. For longer connections, you may join an official transit tour into the city, subject to the required minimum layover time and eligibility. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

At Hanoi (HAN), eligible Singapore Airlines passengers may be invited to use partner lounges such as the SH Premium Lounge Ha Noi, depending on cabin class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status. Lounge access is determined by your departing flight from Hanoi.

During your layover at Singapore (SIN), eligible passengers may be able to access the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on your class of travel and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status. Lounge entitlements are confirmed on your boarding pass at the airport.

Hanoi follows Indochina Time, which is UTC+7 and does not observe daylight saving time. Colombo follows Sri Lanka Standard Time, which is UTC+5:30 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Colombo is therefore 1 hour 30 minutes behind Hanoi throughout the year.

At Singapore Changi Airport, your transfer from the Hanoi flight to your Colombo flight is usually straightforward, with clear signs and efficient security and immigration processes where required. Check the terminal information on your boarding passes, follow the Transfer desks if you need assistance, and allow time to enjoy the airport facilities between flights.

We recommend arriving at Hanoi Noi Bai International Airport at least 2.5 to 3 hours before your scheduled departure time. This gives you sufficient time for check-in, security screening, and immigration, as well as enjoying any pre-flight services or lounge access you may be eligible for.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality, length of stay, and the purpose of your visit. You should check the latest entry regulations for both Singapore (for transit, if applicable) and Sri Lanka with official government sources or your nearest embassy or consulate before you travel.

If your entire journey from Hanoi to Colombo is booked on a single Singapore Airlines or partner ticket, we will usually check your baggage through to Colombo at Hanoi, so you do not need to collect it in Singapore. Your baggage tag and boarding passes will confirm the final checked destination.

Colombo is warm and humid year-round, so lightweight, breathable clothing is recommended, along with comfortable footwear for walking. A light layer is useful for air-conditioned spaces, and an umbrella or compact rain jacket can be helpful during months with more frequent showers.
