For example, if the passenger’s flight itinerary is Los Angeles-Tokyo-Singapore and his transit duration in Tokyo is within 24 hours, the Covid-19 PCR test must be taken within 72 hours before the scheduled day of departure of his flight from Los Angeles. Or,

(ii) If the scheduled transit duration exceeds 24 hours, the 72 hours will be counted from the scheduled day of departure of the last flight in his journey to Singapore (i.e. the flight to Singapore). For example, if the passenger’s flight itinerary is Los Angeles-Tokyo-Hong Kong-Singapore, and his total scheduled transit duration at Tokyo and Hong Kong adds up to more than 24 hours, the Covid-19 PCR test must be taken within 72 hours before the scheduled day of departure of his flight from Hong Kong.

Yes, if your Singapore Airlines or SilkAir flight was cancelled, you can request for a refund if you no longer wish to travel regardless of your original travel date.

If your cancelled flight was originally scheduled to fly before 1 April 2021, you can also choose to retain the unused value of your ticket for flight credits instead.

Customers holding tickets issued on or before 15 March 2020 and had originally planned their travels up to 31 March 2021 are eligible. The value of the unused portion of these tickets will be retained as flight credits, which can be used to book new itineraries for travel up till 31 December 2021.

This applies to all tickets purchased either directly from Singapore Airlines or via travel agents, except where tickets were purchased with KrisFlyer miles or HighFlyer points, on a child or infant fare, or where tickets are partially flown.

If you have not completed any sectors in your booking, you may check the amount of flight credits you have by visiting Manage Booking . Tick the “Check flight credit balance” box and enter your booking reference and family name to view your available credits.

If you have purchased any add ons with your ticket or hold a partially used ticket, please submit your enquiry using the “Other Covid-19 related assistance” option on our Assistance Request Form.

Once you are ready to book your new travel, you can use your flight credits and bonus flight credits to offset the cost of your rebooked itinerary. You can choose to book itineraries for your preferred destination on your preferred cabin class and on any travel date as long as the trip is completed by 31 December 2021. If the cost of the new itinerary exceeds the total value of your flight credits, a top-up will be required. If the cost is lower, any remaining flight credits can be used for a second trip.

When you’re ready to rebook, submit a request via our Assistance Request Form and choose the “Change or rebook your flight” option. All rebooking fees will be waived.
