We offer a range of special meals that can be requested in advance to suit different dietary needs and preferences. Please place your request through our Manage Booking page before your departure so we can prepare it for your flight.

Eligible Business Class customers on this route can pre-select main courses from our Book the Cook service on selected sectors, adding more variety to your dining experience beyond the inflight menu.

For flights between Hangzhou and Kolkata, the weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are as follows: Economy Class passengers may check 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. Business Class passengers may check up to 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg. Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final allowance for your trip is shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Hangzhou to Kolkata 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 connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Hangzhou–Singapore and Singapore–Kolkata sectors, Economy Class seats typically offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, providing comfortable legroom for the journey. Business Class features a fully flat bed with generous personal space and direct aisle access, allowing you to relax or sleep more easily on both legs of your trip.

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.

At Singapore (SIN), eligible customers may be able to use facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and KrisFlyer Gold Lounge before their onward flight.

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 Hangzhou but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can enjoy one of the worlds most comfortable transit experiences. For longer connections, you may be able to join an official free city tour if your layover meets the minimum time requirement, letting you see highlights of Singapore between flights.

If you prefer to stay airside, Changi Airport offers themed gardens, rest areas, quiet zones, and family-friendly spaces to relax between flights. Depending on the terminal, you may also find attractions such as play areas, walking trails, and a wide choice of dining.

For shorter layovers, you can stretch your legs along the terminal corridors, freshen up, or spend time browsing shops and cafés near your departure gate. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Hangzhou follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8 all year and does not observe daylight saving time. Kolkata follows India Standard Time, which is UTC+5:30 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Kolkata is therefore 2 hours 30 minutes behind Hangzhou throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Kolkata airport when flying from Hangzhou 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 (Hangzhou–Singapore and Singapore–Kolkata) 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 Kolkata 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 Hangzhou–Kolkata 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.
