Flights from United States Of America

From the United States of America, you can fly directly with Singapore Airlines to Singapore (SIN) from Seattle (SEA) and San Francisco (SFO). From there, you can connect on same-carrier services to major cities across North Asia, such as Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong; Southeast Asia, including Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Denpasar Bali, Hanoi, and Manila; the Southwest Pacific, including Sydney and Brisbane; West Asia and Africa, including Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Kochi, Dubai, and Cape Town; and Europe, including London, Manchester, Frankfurt, Rome, Istanbul, Barcelona, and Brussels.

Most journeys from the United States of America to Asia, Australia, and Europe with Singapore Airlines are long-haul, typically ranging from about 16 to over 30 hours including connections.
From Seattle, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco, long-haul trips to Europe include cities such as London, Manchester, Frankfurt, Rome, Istanbul, Barcelona, and Brussels. From all four gateways you can also take long-haul flights to the Southwest Pacific, including Sydney and Brisbane, and to West Asia and Africa, including Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Kochi, Hyderabad, Dhaka, Kathmandu, Colombo, Malé, Dubai, and Cape Town. Within Asia, even relatively closer destinations such as Singapore, Bangkok, Jakarta, Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, and Shanghai are considered long-haul from the United States due to the trans-Pacific distance.

From the United States of America, even the shortest journeys with Singapore Airlines are long-haul by distance, but you can still choose destinations that pair well with a one-week or slightly longer break. Singapore, Singapore (SIN), accessible nonstop from Seattle and San Francisco, is ideal in the relatively drier and slightly cooler months, and offers a compact mix of gardens, waterfront promenades, and urban attractions that are easy to explore in a few days.
Bangkok, Thailand (BKK), works well in the cooler, less humid season and combines busy markets and street life with access to nearby beach areas.
Denpasar Bali, Indonesia (DPS), is a good choice in the drier season if you want beaches, rice terraces, and coastal sunsets within a manageable itinerary.
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (KUL), has a tropical climate year-round but is especially pleasant outside the heaviest rain periods, offering modern cityscapes, green parks, and easy side trips.
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (SGN), is best in the drier months and gives you an energetic urban experience with café culture and riverfront walks, all feasible within a shorter holiday from the United States.
