Book the Cook
Eligible Business Class passengers on the Singapore to Manila sector can pre-select from an expanded menu through our Book the Cook service, allowing you to choose your main course in advance for a more personalised dining experience.

For flights between Kochi and Manila, our baggage policy follows the weight concept. In Economy Class, checked baggage allowances are 25kg on Lite and Value fares, and 30kg on Standard and Flexi fares. In Business Class, the checked baggage allowance is 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg, while Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final baggage allowance for your trip is indicated on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

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

On both the Boeing 737-8 MAX and Airbus A350-900 operating between Kochi, Singapore, and Manila, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of about 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width. Business Class provides a fully flat bed with generous width and direct aisle access on every seat, allowing you to rest more comfortably on each sector.

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.

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

In Singapore, eligible passengers may be invited to relax in the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge before their onward flight.

Singapore Changi Airport offers a wide range of facilities to make your layover comfortable, from themed gardens and quiet rest areas to children’s play zones and airport hotels. If your layover is at least 5.5 to 6 hours, you may join one of the official free transit tours into the city, subject to availability and entry requirements.

For shorter connections, you can stay airside and enjoy amenities such as walking trails, relaxation zones, and viewing galleries, or simply unwind at a cafe between flights. Showers and napping options are available in selected lounges and transit hotels.

Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Kochi follows India Standard Time (IST), which is UTC+5:30 and does not observe daylight saving time. Manila follows Philippine Time, which is UTC+8 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Manila is therefore 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of Kochi throughout the year.

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