Flights between Thailand and the Maldives generally use the weight-concept baggage allowance. In Economy Class, you typically have a checked baggage allowance starting from 25kg. In Premium Economy Class, the allowance is higher, and Business Class offers an even more generous allowance.

In addition, you may bring cabin baggage on board within size and weight limits, which vary by cabin class. Exact entitlements can differ by fare type and your KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status, so please check your e-ticket or our website before you travel.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Phuket to the Maldives once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet.

Non-members and additional users can purchase Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

Most flights from Phuket to the Maldives connect via Singapore Changi Airport, which offers extensive facilities for transit passengers. For shorter layovers, you can enjoy themed gardens, art installations, quiet rest areas, and a wide range of dining options within the terminals.

For longer connections, you may like to visit attractions such as the indoor waterfall and canopy walks at Jewel Changi Airport, or book a nap room or airport hotel to rest between flights. If time permits and border requirements allow, official transit tours may also be available from Changi.

Whether you stay airside or explore more of the airport, you will find plenty to see and do. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it's an integral part of your journey.

Phuket follows Thailand Time (UTC+7) year-round, with no daylight saving. Male and the rest of the Maldives operate on Maldives Time (UTC+5), also without daylight saving. This means Male is typically 2 hours behind Phuket throughout the year.

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