A range of hot and cold drinks, including juices and soft drinks, is available throughout your flight, along with a curated list of wines and spirits in premium cabins. Our signature Singapore Sling is available on board for you to enjoy.

For flights between Mumbai and Shanghai, the weight concept applies.

Each checked bag must not exceed 32kg. Cabin baggage allowances are: Economy Class and Premium Economy Class (1 piece up to 7kg), and Suites and Business Class (2 pieces, each up to 7kg). Your exact allowance will be shown on your e-ticket, and KrisFlyer Elite Gold and PPS Club members enjoy additional allowances.

Wi-Fi is available on Singapore Airlines flights from Mumbai to Shanghai once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, although Economy Class and Premium Economy Class customers must add their membership number to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members can purchase access plans. The service is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

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. Eligible customers may use lounges such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), and the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge at Singapore Changi Airport.

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

If your layover in Singapore is long enough, you can consider joining the official free transit tour, which typically requires at least about 5.5 hours between flights. For shorter transits, you can explore Singapore Changi Airport’s themed gardens, rest zones, children’s play areas, and a wide range of dining options. Airport hotels and nap facilities are available for rest between flights, and there are shower facilities in selected lounges and pay-per-use areas. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Mumbai follows India Standard Time (IST), which is UTC+5:30 and does not observe daylight saving time. Shanghai follows China Standard Time (CST), which is UTC+8:00 and also does not observe daylight saving time. Shanghai is therefore 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of Mumbai throughout the year.

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