In Economy Class, you can usually check at least one piece of baggage. Premium Economy Class offers a higher checked baggage allowance than Economy Class. Business Class and First Class include more generous checked baggage limits, suitable for longer trips.

For cabin baggage, you may bring at least one carry-on bag plus a personal item, subject to size and weight limits. Business Class and First Class customers can bring an additional cabin bag. Exact allowances depend on your ticket type and KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status, so please refer to your booking for precise details.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Phuket to Australia once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free and unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please add your membership number to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure.

If you are not a KrisFlyer member, or if your fare type does not include complimentary access, you can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is ideal for messaging apps, email, and basic web browsing.

High-bandwidth activities such as video streaming, video calls, and large file transfers are not supported, helping to maintain a stable connection for all passengers.

Not all cabin classes are available on every city pair, and configurations can differ slightly by aircraft type and route, so your exact seat layout may vary.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Australia.

Most flights from Phuket to Australia connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which is designed for comfortable and engaging transits. For short layovers, you can enjoy themed gardens, relaxation zones, showers, and a wide choice of dining and shopping without leaving the terminal.

If you have a longer transit and enough time between flights, you may consider joining one of Changi s organised transit tours, subject to your eligibility and timing, or simply explore the airport s attractions such as indoor greenery and art installations.

Whether you choose to relax quietly or explore, Changi offers spaces to recharge and refresh, so your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.
