It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; 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 it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

Both the Yangon–Singapore and Singapore–Kathmandu sectors are operated by the Boeing 737-8 MAX. In Economy Class you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches, with up to 19 inches of seat width for comfortable legroom on each sector. In Business Class you enjoy a wider seat that converts into a fully flat bed, offering generous personal space and direct aisle access on this narrow-body aircraft configuration.

On the Yangon to Kathmandu route via Singapore, Singapore Airlines operates the Boeing 737-8 MAX on both sectors. You can choose between Economy Class, with ergonomic seating and personal entertainment, and Business Class, which offers additional space, enhanced privacy, and seats that convert into fully flat beds.

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.

For a longer layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can join a free city tour if your transit time meets the minimum requirement of around 5.5 to 6 hours, allowing you to see highlights of Singapore between flights. For shorter connections, stay airside to enjoy themed gardens, rest areas, play zones, and, in certain terminals, attractions like indoor waterfalls or walking trails. Airport hotels and snooze lounges are available if you prefer to rest. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait - it is an integral part of your journey.

At Yangon International Airport (RGN), eligible Singapore Airlines customers may relax in the Mingalar Sky CIP Lounge (International) before departing for Singapore, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Facilities typically include comfortable seating, light refreshments, and work-friendly spaces to prepare for your journey.

During your layover in Singapore, eligible passengers may have access to Singapore Airlines lounges such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Your boarding pass will indicate your lounge eligibility and location within the terminal.

Yangon follows Myanmar Time (MMT), which is UTC+6:30, and it does not observe daylight saving time. Kathmandu follows Nepal Time (NPT), which is UTC+5:45, also without daylight saving. Kathmandu is 45 minutes behind Yangon throughout the year.

We recommend arriving at Yangon International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure to Singapore. This allows ample time for check-in, security checks, and immigration before you relax, shop, or visit a lounge prior to boarding.

Transit visa requirements depend on your nationality and itinerary. Many travellers do not need a visa if they remain airside in Singapore Changi Airport. However, you should always check the latest entry and transit rules with the relevant authorities or your local embassy before you travel.

Your bags are usually checked through from Yangon to Kathmandu, so you only need to follow transit signs at Singapore Changi Airport and proceed to your next gate. Check your boarding passes, gate information, and terminal details upon arrival, and allow time to explore the terminal amenities between flights.

Temperatures in Kathmandu can vary by season, so consider packing light layers, a warm outer layer for cooler evenings, and comfortable walking shoes for exploring the city or valley trails. Always keep essential items, travel documents, and valuables in your cabin baggage, and check baggage rules before packing.
