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.

At Singapore Changi Airport, you can join the official Free Singapore Tour if your layover meets the minimum requirement of about 5.5 to 6 hours, allowing you to see selected highlights of the city. For shorter layovers, stay airside and enjoy gardens, butterfly and sunflower spaces, snooze areas, and play zones.

There are also transit hotels, showers, and many dining and shopping options across the terminals, so you can rest, refresh, or explore at your own pace without leaving the airport. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait - it is an integral part of your journey.

When departing from Kathmandu, eligible Singapore Airlines customers may be invited to use the Horizon Lounge at Tribhuvan International Airport. Lounge access depends on your cabin class and frequent flyer status, so please check your booking confirmation or ask our airport staff at check-in.

During your layover at Singapore Changi Airport, eligible customers may have access to The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin class and frequent flyer status. Specific lounge access will be indicated on your boarding pass for the onward flight.

Visa requirements for travel from Kathmandu to Sydney depend on your nationality and purpose of visit. We recommend that you check with the relevant Australian authorities or your nearest Australian mission, and ensure that any transit requirements for Singapore are also met before you travel.

For international flights from Kathmandu to Sydney via Singapore, we recommend arriving at Tribhuvan International Airport at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure time. This allows enough time for check-in, security, exit formalities, and reaching your boarding gate comfortably.

On arrival in Sydney, you will clear immigration, collect your checked baggage, and proceed through customs. Make sure you have completed any required arrival forms and keep your travel documents, address of stay, and any supporting paperwork easily accessible for inspection.

You may be able to arrange a stopover in Singapore rather than a same-day transit, subject to the conditions of your ticket. To add a longer stop in Singapore, please check the rules associated with your fare and contact our reservations team or your travel agent for assistance.
