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, eligible customers may be able to access The Private Room, the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), the SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge, depending on cabin and status.

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

Singapore Changi Airport offers a wide range of attractions, including indoor gardens, quiet rest zones, children’s play areas, and a variety of dining and shopping options that make shorter layovers comfortable. For longer connections, you can explore more of the terminals, relax in a transit hotel, or enjoy spa and shower facilities.

If your layover meets the minimum time required for official transit tours from the airport, you may be able to join a guided visit to see highlights of Singapore before returning for your onward flight, subject to programme availability and entry requirements. Always allow ample time for immigration and security formalities when leaving and re-entering the transit area.

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

Los Angeles follows Pacific Time (UTC−8), switching to Pacific Daylight Time (UTC−7) roughly from March to early November.

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 (Los Angeles–Singapore and Singapore–Sydney) 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 Sydney 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 Los Angeles–Sydney 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.
