Special baggage

Sports gear and instruments travel as checked baggage (some in the cabin) when packed as described. Non-standard baggage other than sporting equipment cannot exceed 200 x 75 x 80 cm. Poorly packed equipment is turned away. Odd-shaped checked items may appear on a separate carousel, so follow the odd-sized baggage signs.

Sporting equipment, general

Takes up part of your hold allowance, with ordinary extra baggage charges above it. Most sporting gear on Canada and USA routes is one piece (a canoe is two). Each item: 32 kg and 315 x 75 x 80 cm at most. Anything longer than 240 cm needs a call to Singapore Airlines five working days or more before the flight.

Archery, baseball, fishing, hang gliding, hockey and lacrosse, parachutes, surfboards, water skis

Taken as checked baggage inside a padded bag or rigid case. A parachute may hold no gas cylinders or dangerous goods. Hang-gliding equipment can be packed in separate bags.

Bicycles

Checked, in a hard-side bicycle case, cardboard or padded protective case. Handlebars fixed in line with the frame, pedals and other projecting parts taken off, nothing sticking out, tyres let down. Motorised or battery-driven bicycles are refused, as are plastic bags and soft unpadded cases. Bicycles skip the oversized bag fee, but the normal hold fees and overweight charges still apply.

Golf

Checked, inside a padded bag or rigid case. Golf trolleys with a battery drive cannot fly on passenger services.

Ski and snowboard

Checked, inside a padded bag or rigid case. A helmet may travel with your cabin baggage but is counted as a cabin piece, not an accessory.

Scuba diving equipment

Checked, inside a padded bag or rigid case. Empty the cylinders and leave the valves open; deflate the buoyancy vest. Take the battery and bulb out of diving lights and pack them apart, in the cabin.

Windsurfing

Checked, dismantled, in well-padded bags (one bag for the board, others for the mast, the sail, the fin and the boom) with no sharp edges protruding.

Canoes and kayaks, javelins, vaulting poles

Call Singapore Airlines five working days or more before your flight. Pack inside a padded bag or rigid case. Motors and electrical parts of canoes and kayaks cannot be flown on passenger services.

Racket sports (tennis, squash, badminton, padel, pickleball)

Checked, inside a padded bag or rigid case. From Indonesia, rackets go in the hold and may not be taken to the cabin.

Bowling

Checked, inside a padded bag or rigid case. Ball cleaners with acetone or alcohol over 70% are not accepted.

Inflatable sport balls

Cabin or checked, once deflated enough that they no longer bounce. Balls without a deflation valve are not accepted.

Skateboards and longboards

Cabin or checked, inside a padded bag or rigid case. Electric ones are not allowed.

Avalanche rescue backpacks

Cabin or checked provided the airbag cannot go off by accident, the airbags have pressure relief valves, only integrated gas cylinders are carried, the battery is removed (and carried in the cabin), and the pack contains no more than 200 mg of gunpowder, no flammable or toxic gas and no Division 1.4 explosives or CO2 cartridges. A representative inspects the pack first.

Hunting and firearms

Hunting and pocket knives travel in the hold alone. For sporting firearms and ammunition, contact Singapore Airlines first: you are responsible for permits and licences. Remove all ammunition; maximum 5 kg of ammunition per passenger in a sturdy box, no explosive or incendiary projectiles; firearms stowed in a suitcase or gun case; group members carry their own ammunition.

Musical instruments, checked

Keep them in a hard, rigid transport case (avoid soft cases; slacken the strings of string instruments). A cello or full-size guitar that exceeds the cabin limit is checked and counts towards your allowance.

Musical instruments, cabin seat

You can buy an extra seat, and the instrument is secured to it. Limits: 44 x 30 x 30 cm on Boeing 737 aircraft, or 127 x 43 x 30 cm on other types, and 40 kg. Arrange it with Singapore Airlines beforehand.

Musical instruments, cabin

A small instrument such as a violin is treated as your cabin bag when the case's length + width + height is 115 cm or less and the weight is 7 kg or less.

Urns and pet ashes

Cabin or checked, packed in shock-absorbing material inside a container with a special lid, securely sealed. Keep the death certificate and cremation certificate with the passenger.

Alcohol-based disinfectants and sanitising gels in hold bags

No more than 0.5 kg or 0.5 litre per article, and 2.0 kg or 2.0 litres in total.

Locks and batteries

Use TSA-approved locks only on flights to and from the USA. Gadgets with batteries in hold bags have to be fully switched off and protected against being turned on by accident.

Travelling with pets

Which pets

Only cats and dogs, as checked baggage, at least three months old, not pregnant, and not a prohibited breed. Pets are not accepted on all Boeing 737 flights, because the hold there has no temperature control. They are not accepted on SQ21 from Newark or SQ23 from New York to Singapore (use SQ25 from New York).

Weight limit

If your pet and its container together weigh more than 32 kg, send the pet by a cargo agent.

Before you travel

Get in touch with Singapore Airlines two weeks or more before departure, giving your pet's type or breed, gender, name, age, colour, weight, container weight and container dimensions. Pets travelling to or from other airlines are not accepted.

Documents out of Singapore

Export licence, indemnity form, veterinary health certificate, rabies vaccination letter, transshipment licence (if any) and the pet's passport (if any). To or through Singapore: import or transshipment licence valid for 90 days, indemnity form, veterinary health certificate and vaccination records with the microchip number.

Prohibited dog breeds (including crosses and other flat-faced breeds)

Akita, Boerboel, Boston Terrier, Boxer, Brussels Griffon, Bulldogs (American, French and English), Chow Chow, Dogo Argentino, Fila Brasileiro, Japanese Chin, Lhasa Apso, Mastiffs (including Neapolitan and Dogue de Bordeaux), Perro de Presa Canario, Pit Bull Terriers (including American Staffordshire Terrier, American Bulldog and Staffordshire Bull Terrier), Pugs, Shar-Pei, Shih Tzu, flat-faced spaniels (Cavalier King Charles, English Toy, Tibetan) and Tosa.

Prohibited cat breeds (including crosses and other flat-faced breeds)

British Shorthair, Burmese, Exotic Shorthair, Himalayan, Persian and Scottish Fold.

Refused in the hold

On flights into or out of: Australia, Brunei, Denpasar (Bali), London Gatwick, Manchester, New Zealand, South Africa, and into London Heathrow, Dubai and Hong Kong.

Container

Must meet IATA standards, with enough room to stand, turn, sit and lie down, ventilation on at least three sides, and food and water containers. Maximum height: 70 cm on A350, 60 cm on A380, 101 cm on B777, 111 cm on B787. Pets travel in separate containers; two puppies or kittens of the same litter (3 to 6 months, under 14 kg each) can share one.

At the airport

Check in at least two hours before departure (three hours from the USA), at the same counter as you, with the documents and the signed indemnity form. Pets travel in the temperature-controlled bulk hold with fixed food and water bowls.

Charges

Your pet and its container are not part of your free allowance. They are additional baggage and are charged separately, with no pre-paid or discounted rates. On all flights except to and from the USA, the charge depends on the total weight of the pet and its container. To and from the USA, the pet and its container count as two additional pieces. A pet transiting Singapore may incur additional fees.

Assistance dogs

Have their own rules and can travel in the cabin; see Singapore Airlines' assistance dog page.

    Hi there,

    Can you please advise are the bag deminsions combined limited to only US and Canada or internationally as well. I am flying with Singapore from New Zealand and my bag is 172cm when the limit says 158.. But it also kind of looks like that's only for US and Canada ?

    Thanks for the help.

    Kind Regards,

  5. Wendy Uys3 April 2023
    Please can you let me know how much it will cost to purchase a extra suitcase from Gatwick to Auckland
    Thank you
    1. Answer

      Since yours is a non-US route, weight based system of baggage allowance applies and, therefore, the charges for excess baggage are expressed in per kg terms.

      If you buy at airport, the charges are USD 50 per excess kg.

      However, if you buy online, and before 48 hrs of scheduled departure time of flight, the charges are USD38 per kg. 

      But, if you buy online and in time period from 48 hrs to 6 hrs before scheduled departure time of flight, the charges are USD 45 per kg.

      So, it is good to buy online on website of the airline before 48 hrs from scheduled departure time of flight since the charges are lowest at this time.

  15. Surindar Nanua1 July 2019
    My wife and I are organising our flight details on Singapore Airlines, Auckland to Amsterdam return. Can you please advise regarding standard economy limit of 30kg per passenger?
    1. Can we combine our weight allowance between both of us, or is it 30kg per person and not allowed to be combined.
    2. Are we allowed to take 3 X 20 kg bags? We are in our 70’s and 30 kg bag is too heavy for us to handle.
    1. Answer

      If you combine the baggage allowances of check in luggage, which is allowed by airlines for people traveling on same pnr, the weight of any single check in baggage will increase beyond 32kg which is not allowed. So, in effect, this clubbing will not be possible due to max weight restrictions for a check in bag.
