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 access The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge at Singapore Changi Airport, depending on their cabin class and status.

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

Singapore Changi Airport offers a wide range of transit facilities that can make your layover comfortable and enjoyable. For longer layovers, you may be able to join the airport’s official city tour programmes, which usually require several hours between flights and allow you to see key sights before returning airside.

If you prefer to stay in the terminal, you will find themed gardens, quiet rest areas, and comfortable seating zones where you can relax. Some terminals offer additional features such as entertainment areas and pay-per-use lounges, as well as airport hotels if you would like a room to rest.

Shorter layovers can be spent exploring the terminals, enjoying a meal, or freshening up before your next flight. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Xiamen follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8 all year round. Paris follows Central European Time (UTC+1) in winter, roughly from late October to late March, and Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) in summer, from late March to late October. This means Paris is typically 7 hours behind Xiamen in winter and 6 hours behind in summer.

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