Flights between Hong Kong and Kathmandu via Singapore generally use the weight concept for checked baggage, as these are international routes. Allowances vary by cabin class: Economy Class usually includes a base checked baggage allowance, Premium Economy Class offers a higher allowance, and Business Class and First Class provide the most generous allowances. All cabins include a cabin baggage allowance sized to fit in the overhead compartment or under the seat in front of you. For full details based on your specific ticket and KrisFlyer status, please refer to your booking confirmation or our baggage information page.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, including those travelling in Economy Class and Premium Economy Class, provided your membership number is added to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and those who prefer not to register can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The service is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

Most journeys from Hong Kong to Kathmandu connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which offers a wide range of gardens, art installations, and relaxation areas to enjoy between flights. For shorter layovers, you can stay airside, explore the terminals, freshen up, and sample local or international dining. For longer daytime layovers, you may be able to join a free transit tour into Singapore city, subject to eligibility and timings. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Hong Kong follows Hong Kong Time (UTC+8) year-round, with no daylight saving. Kathmandu follows Nepal Time (UTC+5:45). Kathmandu is therefore 2 hours 15 minutes behind Hong Kong throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Kathmandu 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 Kathmandu, 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.
