Flights from Brisbane (BNE) to Hangzhou (HGH)

In-flight Dining
You will be served curated meals on both the Brisbane–Singapore and Singapore–Hangzhou sectors, with menus featuring regional flavours and international favourites, designed to keep you comfortable across the full journey.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals to meet specific dietary needs on this route. These should be requested in advance through our website or your booking agent, so we can confirm availability on both flight sectors.

Book the Cook
Eligible passengers in selected premium cabins on Singapore Airlines may be able to pre-order from an expanded Book the Cook menu on the long-haul sector via Singapore, subject to aircraft and route eligibility. You can check availability when managing your booking.

Beverage Service
Throughout the flight, a selection of hot and cold drinks is available, including juices, soft drinks, tea, and coffee. Our signature Singapore Sling is also available on board, alongside a range of other beverages.

For flights between Brisbane and Hangzhou, the weight concept applies. For checked baggage, Economy Class passengers may check 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. Business Class passengers may check up to 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg in weight.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, and Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final allowance for your trip will be shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Brisbane to Hangzhou once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, although Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Paid plans are available for non-members. 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 Brisbane–Singapore and Singapore–Hangzhou Airbus A350-900 sectors, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch and up to 19-inch seat width, giving you a comfortable amount of personal space. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with every seat offering direct aisle access for greater privacy and rest.

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

Eligible passengers travelling through Singapore Changi Airport may have access to the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin and frequent flyer status.

Singapore Changi Airport is well suited to both short and longer layovers. For connections of at least 5.5 hours, you can consider an official transit tour of Singapore, allowing you to see highlights of the city between flights, subject to tour schedules and entry requirements.

If you prefer to stay airside, the airport offers themed gardens, quiet zones, rest areas, and, in some terminals, attractions such as indoor slides or movie screenings. There are also showers and airport hotels available if you would like to freshen up or sleep during a longer connection.

Dining options range from quick snacks to full-service restaurants, with plenty of choice close to the departure gates. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Brisbane operates on Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), which is UTC+10 and does not observe daylight saving time. Hangzhou follows China Standard Time (CST), which is UTC+8 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Hangzhou is therefore 2 hours behind Brisbane throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport when flying from Brisbane 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 (Brisbane–Singapore and Singapore–Hangzhou) 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 Hangzhou 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 Brisbane–Hangzhou 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.
