Flights between Malaysia and China generally use the weight concept for checked baggage. For routes from Malaysia to Hangzhou, your allowance depends on your cabin class and KrisFlyer status.

Exact allowances are shown during booking and on your e-ticket.

From Malaysia to Hangzhou, Singapore Airlines offers Business Class, Premium Economy Class on selected Kuala Lumpur–Singapore flights, and Economy Class. Penang–Singapore sectors provide Business Class and Economy Class, while Singapore–Hangzhou flights offer Business Class and Economy Class, so cabin configurations may vary slightly by city and sector.

In Premium Economy Class, available on some Kuala Lumpur–Singapore flights, seats offer around a 38-inch pitch and up to a 20-inch width. In Business Class, seats convert into fully flat beds, with direct aisle access on wide-body aircraft such as the Airbus A350-900. Exact configurations may differ slightly between Boeing 737-8 MAX and Airbus A350-900 aircraft, but all cabins are designed for comfort on regional and medium-haul flights.

Most flights from Malaysia to Hangzhou connect through Singapore Changi Airport. For longer layovers, you can join a free transit city tour when available, or explore the airport’s themed gardens, art installations, and relaxation zones. Shorter connections are well spent in the terminals, where you can enjoy diverse dining, shopping, and quiet rest areas, or freshen up in pay-per-use lounges and airport hotels. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Kuala Lumpur and Penang both observe Malaysia Time (UTC+8). Hangzhou also follows China Standard Time (UTC+8). There is typically no time difference between cities in Malaysia and Hangzhou, and neither uses daylight saving time, so your watch usually does not need adjusting.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Hangzhou 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 Hangzhou, 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.
