Flights from Johannesburg (JNB) to Da Nang (DAD)

In-flight Dining
On Johannesburg to Da Nang journeys via Singapore, you will be served meals tailored to each sector, including hearty options on the long-haul leg between Johannesburg and Singapore, and a suitable meal service on the regional flight to Da Nang.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals to meet different dietary preferences or medical needs on this route. You can request these in advance through our website or your booking agent, and they will be served on all eligible sectors of your itinerary.

Book the Cook
Eligible passengers in selected premium cabins on the Johannesburg–Singapore sector can use our Book the Cook service to pre-select from a curated menu of main courses. This lets you secure your preferred dish before you fly, subject to availability and route eligibility.

Beverage Service
Throughout the journey, you can enjoy a selection of hot and cold beverages, including juices, soft drinks, tea, and coffee. A range of alcoholic drinks is also available, and our signature Singapore Sling is served on board for you to enjoy above the clouds.

For flights between Johannesburg and Da Nang, the weight concept applies. Checked baggage allowances are 25kg for Economy Class Lite and Value fares, 30kg for Economy Class Standard and Flexi fares, 35kg for Premium Economy Class, and 40kg for Business Class. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. For cabin baggage, Economy Class and Premium Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, while Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. Your final allowance will be printed on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, with Economy Class and Premium Economy Class members required to add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can choose from paid plans. The service is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On the Johannesburg to Singapore sector operated by the Airbus A350-900, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch and up to 19-inch seat width, Premium Economy Class seats offer a 38-inch pitch and up to 20-inch seat width, and Business Class features a fully flat bed with direct aisle access. On the Singapore to Da Nang sector operated by the Boeing 737-8 MAX, Economy Class seats provide comfortable legroom aligned with our long-haul standards, and Business Class offers larger recliner-style seating, ensuring a relaxed regional flight.

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 Johannesburg but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only. In Singapore (SIN), eligible passengers can relax in facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and KrisFlyer Gold Lounge before their next flight.

If you have a longer layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can join one of the official free city tours, which usually require at least 5.5 to 6 hours of transit time. These tours allow you to experience highlights of Singapore without managing logistics on your own.

For shorter layovers, staying airside is very comfortable, with themed gardens, rest areas, and entertainment zones across the terminals. Depending on your terminal, you may also find aviation-themed attractions, play areas, and quiet seating to help you relax between flights.

If you prefer to rest in privacy, airport hotels and nap facilities are available within or close to the terminal buildings. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Johannesburg follows South Africa Standard Time, which is UTC+2 and does not observe daylight saving time. Da Nang follows Indochina Time, which is UTC+7 and also does not change throughout the year. Da Nang is therefore 5 hours ahead of Johannesburg at all times.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Da Nang International Airport when flying from Johannesburg 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 (Johannesburg–Singapore and Singapore–Da Nang) 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 Da Nang 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 Johannesburg–Da Nang 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.
