As a member of Singapore Airlines’ PPS Club or KrisFlyer Elite Gold tier, you will  enjoy extra baggage allowances. Additionally, Star Alliance Gold members will also enjoy extra allowances. The baggage allowance you have for your flight will be printed on your tickets.

Allowances are based on the weight or piece concept. Please expand below tabs to view your baggage allowance.

Baggage weight limitations

If you are travelling to and from Australia, Brunei, New Zealand, South Africa, Sri Lanka, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom, please note that, in accordance with local Occupational Health Safety rules, each of your checked bags cannot exceed 32 kg.

You will be required to re-pack your baggage if the baggage weight exceeds 32 kg. Heavy machinery or spare parts that exceeds the weight limitation would not be transported to and from the abovementioned countries.

Valuable and fragile items

As part of Singapore Airlines' General Conditions of Carriage, please be advised that Singapore Airlines will not be liable for valuable or fragile items checked-in as baggage. You are strongly advised against packing such items in your checked baggage. The list of these items may include the following:

• Laptop
• Medicine
• Securities / Negotiable papers
• Silverware / Precious metals
• Money / Jewellery / Other valuable items
• Business / Travel / Identification documents

Under the Singapore Airlines' cabin baggage policy, each passenger will be allowed the following cabin baggage allowance. Please expand below tabs to see the cabin baggage allowances as well as what items constitute one piece of cabin baggage.

Articles Allowed Onboard

You may carry onboard the articles listed below free of charge, over and above your free baggage allowance (subject to local country specific restrictions, if any):

• Ladies' handbag
• Overcoat
• Umbrella
• Walking stick
• Laptop / Notebook 
• Small camera
• Reading material
• Infant’s food for consumption in flight / infant’s carrying basket
• A pair of crutches and/or other prosthetic devices for the passenger’s use provided the passenger is dependent upon them

Cabin Baggage Checks

Checks will be carried out on our flights at check-in and prior to boarding. At check-in, cabin baggage that exceeds the allowed limits must be checked in. Prior to boarding, cabin baggage that exceed the allowed limits will be collected and stored in the aircraft cargo compartment and excess baggage charge may become necessary if combined weight with the bags already checked in exceeds your allowance.
Adherence to the cabin  baggage allowance facilitates security checks at the airport as well as minimises the likelihood of injuries caused by luggage falling from overhead compartments due to excess stowage. It will also help ensure the aircraft cabin remains clutter-free, for easier movement by fellow passengers and the crew.
Singapore Airlines retain the sole discretion to determine, for purposes of your safety or the safety and comfort of other passengers, whether any item of your baggage will be permitted in the cabin or must be carried as checked baggage.
