Most journeys from London to Australia connect at Singapore Changi Airport, which offers extensive facilities for transit passengers. For longer layovers, you can join a free transit tour into the city when available or explore the airport’s themed gardens, walking trails, and attractions. Shorter connections can be spent relaxing in quiet zones, visiting lounges, enjoying showers, or browsing shops and dining options spread across the terminals. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Time differences vary across Australia and change with daylight saving. Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane are typically 9–11 hours ahead of London, depending on the time of year. Adelaide is usually 30 minutes behind Sydney, while Perth is around 7–8 hours ahead. Cairns generally follows Brisbane time, and Darwin is usually 30 minutes behind Brisbane. Australian daylight saving runs roughly from October to April in some states, while Queensland, Western Australia, and the Northern Territory do not observe it.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Australia 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 Australia, 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.
