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.

At Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers may relax in facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and KrisFlyer Gold Lounge before their onward flight.

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

Singapore Changi Airport is well suited to both short and longer layovers on your Chongqing to Colombo journey. For layovers of at least 5.5 to 6 hours, you can consider an official transit tour into the city, subject to eligibility and schedule, to see highlights before returning to the airport.

If you prefer to stay airside, Changi Airport offers themed gardens, rest zones, playgrounds, and quiet corners where you can relax between flights. Depending on the terminal, you will also find swimming pools, cinemas, and pay-per-use lounges for added comfort.

Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Chongqing follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8 and does not observe daylight saving time. Colombo follows Sri Lanka Standard Time, which is UTC+5:30 and also does not change during the year.

This means Colombo is 2.5 hours behind Chongqing throughout the year, regardless of the month you travel.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Bandaranaike International Airport, Colombo, when flying from Chongqing 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 (Chongqing–Singapore and Singapore–Colombo) 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 Colombo 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 Chongqing–Colombo 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.
