Wi-Fi is available on the Airbus A350-900 services from Brussels to Singapore and onwards from Singapore to New York once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. It is free and unlimited for KrisFlyer members, including those travelling in Economy Class and Premium Economy Class, when the membership number is added to the booking at least 1.5 hours before departure.

Passengers who are not KrisFlyer members, or who prefer not to register, can choose from paid Wi-Fi plans on board. The connection is ideal for messaging, email, and basic browsing. It does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers, so we recommend planning any high-data tasks for when you are on the ground.

On the Brussels to New York route via Singapore, both the Brussels–Singapore and Singapore–New York sectors are operated by the Airbus A350-900. In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width, providing good support for long flights.

Premium Economy Class offers a seat pitch of about 38 inches and up to 20 inches of seat width, with a more spacious layout and enhanced recline to help you relax or work. In Business Class, you will have a fully flat bed with direct aisle access at every seat, giving you privacy and comfort throughout both sectors of your journey.

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.

With a layover at Singapore Changi Airport, you can enjoy one of the most traveller-friendly hubs in the world. For longer transits, consider joining the official free transit tour into the city, which typically requires a layover of at least 5.5 to 6 hours to join comfortably.

If you prefer to stay airside, Changi Airport offers indoor gardens, walking paths, rest areas, and a wide choice of dining and shopping outlets. Depending on your terminal and eligibility, you may also relax in lounges such as the SilverKris Lounge (First Class), SilverKris Lounge (Business Class), or the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge. Your time at Singapore Changi Airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Before your departure from Brussels Airport, eligible Singapore Airlines customers may access The View Gates B lounge. Eligibility is based on your cabin class and your KrisFlyer or Star Alliance status. If you are not eligible through your ticket or membership, you may be able to purchase access directly at the lounge, subject to availability.

Brussels is in the Central European Time zone (UTC+1), switching to Central European Summer Time (UTC+2) from late March to late October. New York is in Eastern Time, observing Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5) and Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4) over similar months. This means New York is typically 6 hours behind Brussels year-round.
