Most journeys from Saudi Arabia to London with Singapore Airlines connect via Singapore Changi Airport. For a longer layover, you can consider joining an official transit city tour, subject to timing and eligibility, to see highlights without handling your bags. For shorter connections, stay airside to enjoy quiet seating zones, gardens, showers, and a wide choice of dining and shopping close to the gates. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Riyadh operates on Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3) year-round. London follows Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+0) in winter and British Summer Time (UTC+1) typically from late March to late October. This means London is usually 3 hours behind Riyadh in winter and 2 hours behind in summer.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to London 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 London, 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.
