Most journeys from Hangzhou to the United Arab Emirates connect via Singapore Changi Airport. For longer layovers, you can join a free transit tour, subject to eligibility and timing, to see highlights of Singapore. For shorter stops, stay airside to enjoy Changi Airport’s indoor gardens, art installations, butterfly garden, and rest areas, or take a shower and relax in a lounge. Family zones, play areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping help the time pass smoothly. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Hangzhou follows China Standard Time (UTC+8). Dubai uses Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4) and does not observe daylight saving time. This means Dubai is typically 4 hours behind Hangzhou throughout the year.
