Flights from Busan (PUS) to Vietnam

Yes, Singapore Airlines offers complimentary meals on flights from Busan to Vietnam. On board, you can enjoy in-flight dining with thoughtfully prepared Asian and international dishes, along with a choice of bread, dessert, and light snacks depending on flight duration. You can request special meals in advance to meet many dietary needs, which we will serve separately from the main menu. On selected routes and cabins, Book the Cook may be available from Singapore, allowing you to pre-select main courses before you fly. A full beverage service is offered, including soft drinks, juices, teas, coffees, and a curated range of alcoholic drinks, plus our signature Singapore Sling on many services.

Flights between South Korea and Vietnam follow the weight concept for checked baggage. In Economy Class, you typically have a checked baggage allowance starting from 25kg, while Business Class offers a higher allowance. All customers may bring cabin baggage within size and weight limits appropriate to their cabin class, plus a small personal item such as a handbag or laptop bag. Exact entitlements depend on your fare type and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status, so please check your e-ticket for full details.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Busan to Vietnam once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please ensure your membership number is added to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and those who prefer not to register can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On flights between Busan and Vietnam, you can travel in Business Class or Economy Class. The Busan–Singapore sectors on the Boeing 737-8 MAX offer both cabins, and onward flights from Singapore to Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hanoi also offer Business Class and Economy Class, with configurations varying slightly between the Boeing 737-8 MAX and the Airbus A350-900.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width, providing comfortable legroom for regional and medium-haul flights. In Business Class, seats convert into fully flat beds, giving you ample space to stretch out and rest, with direct aisle access on the Airbus A350-900 and a spacious layout on the Boeing 737-8 MAX. Exact configurations may vary slightly between aircraft types and routes.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Vietnam. Eligibility is based on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, determined by the flight departing the layover airport. Other options such as purchasing a day pass 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.

Most journeys from Busan to Vietnam connect through Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed for easy and enjoyable transits. For shorter layovers, you can stay airside and explore the terminals' themed gardens, quiet rest areas, children’s play zones, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. With a longer connection, you may have time to enjoy additional facilities such as swimming, snooze lounges, or even a quick visit to attractions within the airport complex, subject to opening hours and your remaining time. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Busan follows Korea Standard Time (UTC+9), while Vietnam uses Indochina Time (UTC+7). Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hanoi are all 2 hours behind Busan throughout the year. Neither South Korea nor Vietnam currently observes daylight saving time, so this difference stays the same in all seasons.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Vietnam when flying via the layover airport on a single booking with Singapore Airlines, provided both flight segments are under the same booking reference (PNR), the connection is under 24 hours, and, for partner-operated onward flights, a through-check agreement is in place.

You may be able to plan a stopover at the layover city on your journey to Vietnam, 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.
