Most journeys from Indonesia to the United Arab Emirates with Singapore Airlines connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which offers many ways to use your layover well. For shorter connections, you can stay airside and enjoy themed gardens, art installations, nap areas, and a wide range of dining and shopping. If you have a longer layover and sufficient time, you may be able to join one of the airport organised transit tours of Singapore, subject to eligibility and schedule. However you choose to spend your stop, your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in United Arab Emirates 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 United Arab Emirates, 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.

The United Arab Emirates operates on Gulf Standard Time, which is UTC+4 and does not observe daylight saving time. Indonesia spans several time zones; Jakarta and most of Java and West Sumatra use Western Indonesia Time (UTC+7), while central regions such as Bali and Sulawesi use Central Indonesia Time (UTC+8). This means Dubai is generally 3 hours behind Jakarta and Surabaya, and 4 hours behind Denpasar Bali and other Central Indonesia Time cities. Medan, which also follows Western Indonesia Time (UTC+7), shares the same time offset as Jakarta relative to Dubai. These differences remain constant throughout the year, as neither country changes clocks seasonally.
