Most flights from Manchester to Vietnam connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed to be easy and enjoyable for transit passengers. For shorter layovers, you can relax in peaceful seating areas, visit indoor gardens, browse shops, or enjoy a meal in one of the many dining outlets close to your gate.

Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it's an integral part of your journey.

Vietnam operates on a single time zone and does not observe daylight saving time. Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hanoi are all on Indochina Time, which is typically 7 hours ahead of Manchester when the United Kingdom is on Greenwich Mean Time (late October to late March). When the United Kingdom moves to British Summer Time (late March to late October), the time difference is usually 6 hours, with Vietnam remaining ahead.

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.
