Flights from Cebu (CEB) to China

Yes, you will be served meals on flights from Cebu to China. Onboard, our in-flight dining features thoughtfully prepared dishes with Asian and international flavours, designed to match the time of day and sector length. You can request special meals in advance to meet many dietary needs, which we will serve alongside the main menu. On selected long sectors, you may also be able to pre-select main courses before departure, giving you more choice and convenience. A full range of hot and cold beverages, including our signature Singapore Sling in many cabins, is available to complement your meal.

On routes between the Philippines and China, Singapore Airlines generally applies the weight concept for checked baggage. In Economy Class, you can usually check in baggage up to a combined weight allowance, while Business Class offers a higher combined checked baggage allowance. All customers may also bring cabin baggage within specified size and weight limits, varying by cabin class. Exact entitlements depend on your booking class and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status, so please refer to your e-ticket or our baggage calculator for precise allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on most flights from Cebu to China once the aircraft reaches above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, simply add your membership number to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and those who prefer can purchase paid plans. The connection is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On flights from Cebu to China, you can choose between Business Class and Economy Class across all routes. Both the Boeing 737-8 MAX and the widebody aircraft used on onward sectors, such as the Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 787-10, offer these two cabin classes, though seating layouts and specific seat designs differ slightly between aircraft types.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches with up to 19 inches of seat width, depending on the aircraft type. Business Class offers a fully flat bed on the Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 787-10, and a spacious reclining seat with generous legroom and enhanced personal space on the Boeing 737-8 MAX, with every configuration designed for comfort on medium-haul journeys.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to China. Eligibility is based on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, determined by the flight departing the layover airport. Other options such as purchasing a day pass 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.

Most journeys from Cebu to China connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed to make transit time relaxing and productive. For shorter layovers, you can enjoy landscaped indoor gardens, quiet rest areas, and a wide selection of dining and shopping options, all within easy walking distance of your gate. With a longer connection, you might add a refreshing shower, explore different terminals, or take in airport attractions before boarding your next flight. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Cebu follows Philippine Time (UTC+8), which is the same as China Standard Time (UTC+8). Cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Xiamen, Chongqing, Chengdu, and Hangzhou all share this time zone. There is no daylight saving time in either the Philippines or China, so the time difference remains zero throughout the year.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in China when flying via the layover airport on a single booking with Singapore Airlines, provided both flight segments are under the same booking reference (PNR), the connection is under 24 hours, and, for partner-operated onward flights, a through-check agreement is in place.

You may be able to plan a stopover at the layover city on your journey to China, 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.
