Eligible passengers in selected premium cabins on this route can pre-select from an expanded Book the Cook menu before departure, enjoying more choice and signature dishes on board. This service lets you confirm your main course ahead of your flight.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Brussels to Christchurch once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class and Premium Economy Class customers should add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Brussels–Singapore and Singapore–Christchurch sectors operated by the Airbus A350-900, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width. Premium Economy Class provides a 38-inch pitch with up to 20-inch seat width, while Business Class features a fully flat bed with direct aisle access at every seat.

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. Eligible customers may be able to use facilities such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and KrisFlyer Gold Lounge at Singapore (SIN).

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 Brussels but have a Business Class onward flight from Singapore, you get lounge access in Singapore only.

With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can enjoy one of the most comfortable transit experiences in the world. For longer connections, you may consider joining an official free city tour, which typically requires a layover of at least 5.5 to 6 hours. For shorter layovers, explore the airport's themed gardens, quiet rest areas, and entertainment zones, or relax at a transit hotel within the terminal. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Brussels follows Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) roughly from late March to late October. Christchurch uses New Zealand Standard Time (UTC+12) in winter and New Zealand Daylight Time (UTC+13) from late September to early April. This means Christchurch is typically 11 or 12 hours ahead of Brussels in the European winter, and 10 or 11 hours ahead during the European summer, depending on overlapping daylight saving periods.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Christchurch Airport when flying from Brussels 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 (Brussels–Singapore and Singapore–Christchurch) 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 Christchurch 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 Brussels–Christchurch 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.
