Flights from Busan (PUS) to Philippines

Yes, meals are served on Singapore Airlines flights from Busan to the Philippines. On both the Busan–Singapore and Singapore–Philippines sectors, you can enjoy our in-flight dining with a choice of main courses, along with appetisers and desserts on selected flights. Special meals to suit different needs can be requested in advance. On many medium-haul and regional services you can also choose from an expanded menu through our pre-order options where available. A full beverage service, including soft drinks, juices, wines, and spirits, is offered, and you can enjoy our signature Singapore Sling on selected flights.

Flights between South Korea and the Philippines follow the weight-concept baggage allowance. On these routes, Economy Class customers generally enjoy a checked baggage allowance starting from 25kg, and Business Class customers from 40kg. Cabin baggage is typically one piece in Economy Class and two pieces in Business Class, within size and weight limits. Exact allowances depend on your fare type and KrisFlyer or partner frequent flyer status, so please check your ticket details before you travel.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Busan to the Philippines once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free, unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please add your membership number to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and additional users can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers reliably.

On the routes from Busan to the Philippines via Singapore, you can choose between Business Class and Economy Class. Both the Boeing 737-8 MAX and Airbus A350-900 services on these routes offer these two cabin classes, with configurations that may differ slightly by aircraft type.

In Economy Class, you can expect around 32-inch seat pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, offering comfortable legroom for the journey. In Business Class, seats convert into a fully flat bed on the Airbus A350-900 and recline into a deep, lie-flat style or angled-flat bed on the Boeing 737-8 MAX, with every seat designed for added space and privacy. Exact configurations may vary slightly between aircraft.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to the Philippines. Eligibility is based on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, determined by the flight departing the layover airport. Other options such as purchasing a day pass 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.

Most flights from Busan to the Philippines connect via Singapore Changi Airport. For longer layovers, you can join a free transit tour of Singapore, subject to timing and eligibility, or explore attractions such as indoor gardens and themed zones in the terminals. For shorter connections, stay airside and enjoy lounges, quiet rest areas, showers, and a wide range of dining and shopping options, all signposted and easy to reach. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Busan follows Korea Standard Time (UTC+9). Manila and Cebu both follow Philippine Time (UTC+8). This means the Philippines is typically 1 hour behind Busan all year round, as neither South Korea nor the Philippines currently observes daylight saving time.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Philippines when flying via the layover airport on a single booking with Singapore Airlines, provided both flight segments are under the same booking reference (PNR), the connection is under 24 hours, and, for partner-operated onward flights, a through-check agreement is in place.

You may be able to plan a stopover at the layover city on your journey to Philippines, 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.
