Most flights from South Korea to Thailand with Singapore Airlines transit through Singapore Changi Airport, which offers a wide range of ways to spend your time. For longer layovers, you can join a free official transit tour of Singapore, subject to timing and eligibility, to see highlights of the city before returning airside. For shorter connections, stay in the terminal to enjoy indoor gardens, quiet rest areas, play zones, and a variety of dining and shopping options, or book an airport hotel or paid lounge for extra rest. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

South Korea follows Korea Standard Time (KST, UTC+9), while Thailand uses Indochina Time (ICT, UTC+7). This means Thailand is typically 2 hours behind South Korea throughout the year. Neither country currently observes daylight saving time, so the 2-hour time difference remains constant between cities such as Seoul or Busan and Bangkok or Phuket.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Thailand 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 Thailand, 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.
