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.

Eligible customers may be able to use facilities such as The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge during their time at Singapore Changi Airport.

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

Singapore Changi Airport offers many ways to spend your layover comfortably, from themed gardens and art installations to rest zones and quiet seating areas. With at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, you can also consider joining an official free transit tour to see some of the city.

For shorter layovers, you can enjoy amenities such as indoor gardens, playgrounds, showers, and relaxation areas, as well as a wide range of dining and shopping options located close to the gates. Airport hotels and snooze areas provide additional comfort if you prefer to rest.

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

Through-Check Conditions

Single Itinerary: Both flight segments (Melbourne–Singapore and Singapore–Bengaluru) must be under the same booking reference or PNR.

Partner Airlines: If your onward flight from Singapore to Bengaluru 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 Melbourne–Bengaluru 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.
