Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Japan.

Other options such as purchasing a day pass are also available.

Most flights from Perth to Japan connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which is well set up for transit stays of different lengths. For shorter layovers, you can enjoy themed gardens, rest areas, showers, playgrounds, and a wide range of dining and shopping, all within the terminals. With a longer connection, you might join an official transit tour or take your time exploring the airport's indoor waterfalls, art installations, and relaxation spaces. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it's an integral part of your journey.

Perth usually runs 1 hour behind Japan when Japan is on Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) and Western Australia is on Australian Western Standard Time (UTC+8). Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka all share the same time. Japan does not observe daylight saving, and Western Australia currently does not either, so this one-hour difference is consistent through the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Japan 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 Japan, 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.
