Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Melbourne to Copenhagen once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet.

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 Melbourne but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only. In Singapore, eligible customers may be invited to The Private Room, SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin and status.

If you have a longer layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can consider joining one of the official transit tours into the city, which typically require a minimum of around 5.5 to 6 hours of transit time. These curated tours let you see highlights without managing your own logistics. For shorter layovers, staying airside offers plenty to enjoy, with indoor gardens, rest areas, playgrounds, and quiet spaces for work or relaxation across the terminals. There are also shower facilities, transit hotels, and a wide range of dining and retail options to make your connection more comfortable. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Melbourne operates on Australian Eastern Standard Time (UTC+10) and Australian Eastern Daylight Time (UTC+11) from roughly October to early April. Copenhagen uses Central European Time (UTC+1) and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from roughly late March to late October. When both cities are on standard time, Melbourne is 9 hours ahead; during Melbourne daylight time and Copenhagen standard time, Melbourne is 10 hours ahead; when both observe daylight time, Melbourne is 9 hours ahead; and when Melbourne is on standard time while Copenhagen is on summer time, Melbourne is 8 hours ahead.

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