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. You can access facilities such as The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge during your transit, depending on your eligibility. 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 Zurich but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

Singapore Changi Airport is well suited to both short and longer layovers, with themed gardens, resting zones, play areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. For longer connections of at least 5.5–6 hours, you may be able to join an official transit tour into the city, subject to timing and eligibility. If you prefer to stay airside, you can explore quiet lounges, relaxation spaces, and even swimming or entertainment facilities in selected terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Zurich follows Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from roughly late March to late October. Seoul uses Korea Standard Time (UTC+9) year-round. This means Seoul is 8 hours ahead of Zurich in winter, and 7 hours ahead during Zurich's summer time.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Seoul when flying from Zurich 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 (Zurich–Singapore and Singapore–Seoul) 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 Seoul 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 Zurich–Seoul 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.
