Most journeys from the Netherlands to Kathmandu connect through Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed for comfortable layovers. For shorter connections, stay airside to enjoy themed gardens, rest areas, dining options, and extensive shopping. If your layover is longer, you can consider an airport hotel or, if time permits and entry requirements allow, one of the official transit or city experiences available from the airport. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Amsterdam follows Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) and Central European Summer Time (CEST, UTC+2, typically late March to late October). Kathmandu operates on Nepal Time (UTC+5:45). This means Kathmandu is usually 4 hours 45 minutes ahead of Amsterdam in winter, and 3 hours 45 minutes ahead during European summer time.

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