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

Singapore Changi Airport offers extensive facilities that make layovers comfortable and engaging. With transit times that suit most travellers staying airside, you can enjoy themed gardens, art installations, rest zones, and a wide choice of dining options in each terminal. For longer layovers, you can explore additional amenities such as airport hotels, swimming pools in selected terminals, and children’s play areas, or simply find a quiet corner to relax. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Beijing follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8 and does not observe daylight saving time. Amsterdam follows Central European Time (UTC+1) in roughly November to March, and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from late March to late October. This means Amsterdam is normally 7 hours behind Beijing in winter and 6 hours behind in summer.

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