Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights between Riyadh and Brisbane once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members; Economy Class members must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On both the Riyadh–Singapore and Singapore–Brisbane Airbus A350-900 sectors, Economy Class offers a seat pitch of around 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width, providing comfortable legroom for long journeys. Business Class features a fully flat bed with every seat offering direct aisle access for added space and privacy.

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.

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

Singapore Changi Airport is designed for comfortable transits, with themed gardens, rest areas, and family-friendly facilities across the terminals. If your layover is at least 5.5 hours, you can consider joining one of the official free transit tours into the city, subject to eligibility and operating schedules.

For shorter layovers, you can relax in quiet zones, explore indoor gardens and art installations, or freshen up at shower facilities and transit hotels. Dining and shopping options are extensive, making it easy to pass the time in comfort.

Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Riyadh follows Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3) and does not observe daylight saving time. Brisbane follows Australian Eastern Standard Time (UTC+10) and does not observe daylight saving time either. This means Brisbane is 7 hours ahead of Riyadh throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Brisbane Airport when flying from Riyadh 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 (Riyadh–Singapore and Singapore–Brisbane) 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 Brisbane 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 Riyadh–Brisbane 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.
