Flights from Chengdu (TFU) to Adelaide (ADL)

In-flight Dining
You will be served meals on both the Chengdu–Singapore and Singapore–Adelaide sectors, with menus designed to offer a selection of regional and international flavours in Economy Class and Business Class.

Special Meals
We offer a variety of special meals that can be requested in advance to suit many dietary preferences or requirements. Please place your request when booking or via Manage Booking before your departure.

Book the Cook
Eligible Business Class customers can pre-select from an expanded menu using our Book the Cook service on selected sectors, allowing you to choose your main course before you fly.

Beverage Service
A range of hot and cold drinks is available throughout the flight, including juices, soft drinks, teas, and coffees. You can also enjoy our signature Singapore Sling, served on board across all cabins.

For flights between Chengdu and Adelaide, the weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are as follows: Economy Class passengers may check 25kg on Lite and Value fares, or 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. Business Class passengers may check 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. Your final allowance is shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members have additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Chengdu to Adelaide once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, with Economy Class members required to add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Chengdu–Singapore and Singapore–Adelaide sectors operated by the Boeing 787-10, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width. Business Class features a fully flat bed with every seat providing direct aisle access for added comfort and privacy.

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.

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 Chengdu but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only. In Singapore (SIN), eligible customers may be invited to relax in facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their cabin and status.

Singapore Changi Airport offers extensive facilities to make your layover comfortable and enjoyable. If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights, you can consider joining a transit tour to see highlights of the city. For shorter layovers, you can enjoy themed gardens, rest areas, entertainment zones, and a wide range of dining options within the terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Chengdu follows China Standard Time (UTC+8) all year. Adelaide operates on Australian Central Standard Time (UTC+9:30) from roughly April to early October, and Australian Central Daylight Time (UTC+10:30) from early October to early April. Adelaide is therefore 1.5 hours ahead of Chengdu in winter, and 2.5 hours ahead in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Adelaide Airport when flying from Chengdu 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 (Chengdu–Singapore and Singapore–Adelaide) 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 Adelaide 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 Chengdu–Adelaide 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.
