Which routes use weight concept vs. piece concept baggage?
Most international routes operate under weight concept (measured in kilograms). USA and Canada routes use piece concept (measured in number of bags and individual weight limits). Check your booking confirmation or the Singapore Airlines website to confirm which applies to your flight.
Can I split my baggage allowance between checked bags and cabin bag?
No. The cabin bag limit (7 kg) is separate from checked baggage. You must stay within both limits-7 kg for cabin plus your checked allowance depending on fare class.
What if my baggage exceeds the limit?
Excess fees apply. On weight-concept routes, you are charged per kilogram. On piece-concept routes (USA/Canada), a flat rate of USD 100 applies per extra piece. Purchasing extra baggage in advance is cheaper than paying excess fees at the airport.
