Answers to the questions we hear most about booking international flights with us.
How do I find the cheapest international flights to Singapore from Australia?
+
Booking six to ten weeks ahead typically gets you the most competitive fares. Midweek departures tend to be cheaper than weekends, and flying from Perth often means a shorter flight and sometimes a lower fare than from Sydney or Melbourne.
Which airlines fly from Australia to Singapore?
+
Singapore Airlines, Qantas, Jetstar, Scoot, and Malaysia Airlines all fly this route. Singapore Airlines and Scoot run direct flights from multiple Australian cities to Changi Airport, and Qantas also operates direct services.
Which airport serves Singapore and how far is it from the city?
+
Singapore Changi Airport is about 20 kilometres from the city centre. The MRT train gets you into town in around 30 minutes, and taxis, Grab rides, and private transfers are all available outside arrivals.
How long is a flight from Australia to Singapore?
+
Perth to Singapore is around five hours direct, one of the shorter routes from Australia. Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane are all roughly seven and a half to eight hours direct, and Adelaide is about seven and a half hours.
Do I need a visa to travel to Singapore from Australia?
+
Australians don't need a visa for stays up to 30 days. Longer stays need a formal visa or extension. Singapore has strict customs and drug laws, so it's worth knowing the rules before you arrive.
What is the best time of year to fly to Singapore from Australia?
+
Singapore is warm and humid year-round, with two monsoon periods bringing heavier rain: December to March and June to September. February and July tend to be the driest months. Fares stay fairly steady year-round, with a small bump during Australian school holidays.
Is Singapore a good stopover destination between Australia and Europe?
+
Yes, and it's one of the most popular. Singapore Airlines routes a lot of its European traffic through Changi, and even a 48-hour stopover is enough for a hawker centre meal, Gardens by the Bay, and a couple of neighbourhoods.
Is Singapore a good base for exploring the rest of Southeast Asia?
+
Changi connects directly to most major Southeast Asian cities, and budget airlines make short hops to Bali, Bangkok, and Kuala Lumpur affordable. A quick trip across the border to Johor Bahru is also easy to add on.
Are there any hidden fees added at checkout when booking international flights to Singapore?
+
No. The fare shown on EaseTravel includes all taxes, carrier charges, and applicable fees. There are no extra costs added at the end of the booking - what you see during your search is what you pay.
What baggage am I allowed on an international flight to Singapore?
+
Singapore Airlines economy fares generally include 25 to 30 kilograms of checked baggage. Scoot and Jetstar budget fares may charge separately, so it's worth checking the inclusions before booking.
Can I change or cancel my international flight to Singapore after booking?
+
This depends on the airline and fare type. Flexible and business fares usually allow changes with little or no fee, while discounted or budget fares may be non-refundable. We show the full fare conditions before you confirm.
How will I receive my e-ticket after booking an international flight to Singapore?
+
Your e-ticket and confirmation are emailed within minutes of payment. If it doesn't arrive, check your spam folder first, then contact our support team and we'll resend it.
Do you offer last-minute international flights to Singapore?
+
Yes. Given how often flights run from multiple Australian cities, last-minute fares come up more often than on some other long-haul routes. Contact our team and we'll check what's available.
Can I book a one-way international flight to Singapore?
+
Yes. One-way, return, and multi-city options are all available. If Singapore is the start of a wider Southeast Asia trip, our multi-city booking lets you set up your return from a different country.
Do you offer group bookings for international flights to Singapore?
+
Yes. For groups of six or more, contact our team directly. We'll search for the best group fares, help with seating where possible, and support you from enquiry through to departure.
Is Singapore a good destination for a family holiday?
+
Universal Studios suits older kids, while the S.E.A. Aquarium, Adventure Cove Waterpark, and Sentosa's beaches keep younger children busy. Singapore Zoo and Night Safari are also excellent, and the city is safe and easy to get around with kids.
What are the best things to do in Singapore for a first-time visitor?
+
Start with a hawker centre like Maxwell or Lau Pa Sat. Gardens by the Bay is worth an afternoon, and the Supertree light show is worth staying for. Chinatown, Little India, and Marina Bay Sands' observation deck round out a solid first visit.
Is Singapore good for a honeymoon from Australia?
+
Marina Bay Sands' rooftop pool is one of the best-known honeymoon spots in Asia, and the city has strong boutique hotel options too. Many couples use Singapore as the first stop before continuing to Bali, the Maldives, or Thailand.
Is Singapore good for business travel from Australia?
+
Singapore is a major regional headquarters hub, with events like the Singapore Airshow and Fintech Festival held there. Frequent direct flights from five Australian cities give business travellers good scheduling flexibility.
What cultural rules should I be aware of when visiting Singapore?
+
Chewing gum isn't sold there, littering carries real fines, and eating, drinking, or loud phone calls on the MRT are all not allowed. The rules are enforced, but they're part of why the city stays so clean and orderly.
