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. Paid plans are available for non-members.

On both the Airbus A350-900 between Brisbane and Singapore and the Boeing 737-8 MAX between Singapore and Medan, Economy Class seats offer a pitch of around 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width. Business Class features seats that convert into fully flat beds, with every seat providing direct aisle access on the Airbus A350-900 and a spacious layout on the Boeing 737-8 MAX.

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

Singapore Changi Airport is designed for comfortable layovers, with themed gardens, rest areas, and a wide selection of dining and shopping. With a longer connection, you can explore multiple terminals, visit attractions like the indoor waterfall and landscaped spaces, or relax in a quiet zone or transit hotel. For shorter layovers, staying airside keeps everything simple, with clear wayfinding and frequent shuttle connections between terminals. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Brisbane operates on Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), which is UTC+10 and does not currently observe daylight saving time. Medan follows Western Indonesia Time (WIB), which is UTC+7. This means Medan is 3 hours behind Brisbane throughout the year, so when it is 12.00pm in Brisbane, it is 9.00am in Medan.

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