Checked baggage allowances are 25kg for Economy Class Lite and Value fares, 30kg for Economy Class Standard and Flexi fares, 35kg for Premium Economy Class, 40kg for Business Class, and 50kg for Suites or First Class. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights on this route once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, although Economy Class and Premium Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Boeing 737-8 MAX sector from Bandar Seri Begawan to Singapore and the Airbus A350-900 sector from Singapore to Beijing, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch, with up to 19-inch seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with generous space and direct aisle access on each leg of the journey.

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.

Lounge Access Eligibility
Cabin Class: Complimentary for Suites, First, and Business Class passengers. Premium Economy and Economy travellers do not have access unless they hold eligible status.

Frequent Flyer Status: PPS Club and KrisFlyer Elite Gold (or Star Alliance Gold) members have access regardless of cabin class.

The 'Next Segment' Rule: Eligibility is based on the flight immediately departing that airport. For example, if you fly Economy from Bandar Seri Begawan but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only. In Singapore, eligible passengers may be invited to the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their class of travel and membership status.

If you have a longer layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can join a free transit tour of the city, available for passengers with at least around 5.5 to 6 hours between flights. This is a convenient way to see highlights of Singapore without planning your own itinerary.

Shorter layovers are well spent airside, where you will find themed gardens, rest areas, play zones, and in some terminals, facilities such as a swimming pool or entertainment zones. There are also shower facilities and quiet corners where you can refresh and relax.

Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Bandar Seri Begawan follows Asia/Brunei time, which is UTC+8 all year and does not observe daylight saving time. Beijing follows China Standard Time, also UTC+8 with no daylight saving time. This means there is no time difference between Bandar Seri Begawan and Beijing at any time of the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Beijing when flying from Bandar Seri Begawan via Singapore on a single booking with Singapore Airlines.

Through-Check Conditions
For your bags to be sent directly to your final destination, the following general conditions must be met:

Single Itinerary: Both flight segments (Bandar Seri Begawan–Singapore and Singapore–Beijing) must be under the same booking reference or PNR.

Layover Duration: Your connection in Singapore must be less than 24 hours. If your layover exceeds 24 hours, it is considered a stopover, and you will typically be required to collect your luggage and re-check it for your onward flight.

Partner Airlines: If your onward flight from Singapore to Beijing is operated by a partner airline, Singapore Airlines has through-check agreements that usually allow your bags to be tagged to your final destination.

You may be able to plan a stopover in Singapore on your Bandar Seri Begawan–Beijing trip, subject to your ticket conditions and availability. When booking, you can search for multi-city options or speak with our customer service team or your travel agent, who can advise whether a stopover can be added to your itinerary.
