Before your flight to New York, eligible customers departing from Singapore Changi Airport can access our lounges in Terminal 3. Depending on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, you may be able to relax, dine, and freshen up before boarding your ultra long-haul flight.

Some lounges at Singapore Changi Airport offer pay-per-use access, subject to capacity and their individual terms. If you do not qualify for complimentary access based on your cabin or membership status, you may consider purchasing access directly from the lounge operator on the day, where available.

For the Singapore to New York flight, we recommend arriving at Singapore Changi Airport at least 3 hours before departure. This allows time for check-in, security, and immigration, and gives you the opportunity to enjoy airport facilities or relax in a lounge if you are eligible.

Singapore operates on Singapore Time (UTC+8) all year. New York uses Eastern Time, which is Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5) roughly from November to March, and Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4) roughly from March to November. This means New York is typically 13 hours behind Singapore in winter and 12 hours behind in summer.

When you fly from Singapore to New York with Singapore Airlines on this nonstop service, you arrive at one of New Yorks main international airports serving the city. Your exact arrival airport is indicated on your booking confirmation and e-ticket.

After arriving in New York, you can choose from public transport, shuttle services, or private transfers to reach Manhattan and other boroughs. Options typically include rail links, buses, and taxis or ride-hailing services. It is best to check current transport details and travel times before you land.

After an ultra long-haul flight, you may feel the effects of jet lag due to the time difference. We suggest drinking water regularly during the flight, stretching periodically, and planning a gentle first day in New York. On arrival, follow airport signs for immigration, baggage claim, and onward ground transport.

Entry requirements for the United States depend on your nationality, passport, and purpose of travel. Some travellers may need a visa, while others may be eligible for an electronic travel authorisation. We recommend checking official government sources well before your departure and ensuring all documents are approved in advance.
