Flights from Colombo (CMB) to Hangzhou (HGH)

In-flight Dining
On the Colombo–Singapore and Singapore–Hangzhou sectors, you will be served meals tailored to the time of day and flight duration, with options that highlight regional flavours as well as familiar international choices.

Special Meals
We offer a range of special meals to suit different dietary needs, which you can request in advance through our website or your booking agent so we can prepare them for your flight.

Book the Cook
Eligible passengers in selected cabins can pre-order from our Book the Cook service on flights where it is available, choosing from an expanded menu of main courses crafted by our culinary team.

Beverage Service
Throughout your journey, you can enjoy a selection of hot and cold drinks, including juices, soft drinks, wines, and spirits. Our signature Singapore Sling is also available on board.

For flights between Colombo and Hangzhou, our routes use the weight concept for checked baggage. In Economy Class, Lite and Value fares include 25kg, while Standard and Flexi fares include 30kg. In Business Class, the checked baggage allowance is 40kg. Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg.

For cabin baggage, Economy Class passengers may bring 1 piece up to 7kg. Business Class passengers may bring 2 pieces, each up to 7kg. The final allowance for your trip is shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

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

On both the Colombo–Singapore and Singapore–Hangzhou sectors, Economy Class seats offer a 32-inch pitch with up to 19-inch seat width, providing good comfort for the journey. Business Class features a fully flat bed with every seat offering direct aisle access, giving you ample space to rest or work throughout the flight.

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

In Singapore (SIN), eligible customers may relax in the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on their cabin and frequent flyer status.

Singapore Changi Airport is well known for turning transit time into part of the journey. If you have at least 5.5 to 6 hours between flights and meet the eligibility criteria, you can join an official transit tour to see highlights of Singapore before returning for your onward connection.

For shorter layovers, staying airside is very comfortable. You can enjoy themed gardens, quiet rest areas, art installations, and dedicated snooze zones spread across the terminals. There are also entertainment options, play areas, and a wide choice of dining.

If you prefer privacy or need a longer rest, consider an airport hotel or designated rest areas within the terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Colombo operates on Sri Lanka Standard Time, which is UTC+5:30 and does not observe daylight saving time. Hangzhou follows China Standard Time, which is UTC+8:00 and also does not change seasonally. Hangzhou is therefore 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of Colombo throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to Hangzhou when flying from Colombo 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 (Colombo–Singapore and Singapore–Hangzhou) 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 Hangzhou 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 Colombo–Hangzhou 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.
