No Nairobi nonstop: the connection is one we build by hand, and South-East Asia and Australia open up beyond Changi.

Where they take you from Nairobi

No nonstop from Nairobi, and no city list the airline publishes from here. The sector to Singapore is a connection we build by hand and issue as one journey.

The Nairobi sector, flown as a connection

There is no nonstop from Nairobi to Singapore, so this is a connection we build by hand, and it is one worth building. Changi is the hinge: beyond it, South-East Asia and Australia open out, and the onward sectors sit on the same ticket as the long one rather than beside it.

Singapore Airlines is what people mean when they say they want the flying to be part of the holiday instead of the price of it. We will not name a cabin or describe a seat at you; what is fitted varies, and what is on your routing is a question with a real answer that we can go and get before you pay.

Because it flies as Star Alliance, the hub we send you through is a decision rather than an accident. There is more than one sensible way to reach Changi from here, and they are not equally comfortable, equally timed or equally forgiving when a leg slips. We put the options beside each other and say which one we would take.

Singapore is a journey in itself, and it pairs naturally with Malaysia, a fortnight that works in either order.

Where we use it

These sectors turn up most often in the journeys we build. Each destination page has the rest of the trip on it.

Questions people put to us about this airline

Baggage, alliances and how the ticket actually gets issued. The answers come from what the airline itself publishes, and we confirm what applies to your own fare before you pay.

What baggage allowance applies on a Singapore Airlines journey from Nairobi?

There is no Nairobi nonstop, so the allowance is set by the fare and by the airlines actually operating each sector rather than by one table. Singapore Airlines publishes its checked allowance by cabin and route, and is explicit that on a codeshare the operating airline’s policy is the one that applies. That is exactly the detail a search box will not surface, and it is why we tell you which airline flies which leg before you pay.

Does Star Alliance or KrisFlyer change anything?

It flies as Star Alliance, which matters on this routing because the journey is built out of more than one carrier: a Star card can credit across the whole thing. Its own programme is KrisFlyer, and the tier decides how far the extra baggage travels. Elite Silver’s extra piece, or 10kg, applies on Singapore Airlines and Scoot only. Elite Gold carries Star Alliance Gold, and with it an extra piece or 20kg on Star Alliance carriers too, though the lightest fares on some of them are excluded. Give us the number before we issue.

How does a Singapore Airlines ticket get issued here?

There is no Nairobi nonstop, so the first thing we do is choose the hub. We put the sensible routings beside each other, say which one we would take and why, and send the fare with its rules in writing before anything is paid. The whole journey is issued in Nairobi as one ticket by an IATA-accredited agent, which is what keeps a late first leg the airline’s problem rather than yours. How ticketing works here has the rest.

The airline changes; the desk does not

However this journey is routed, the ticket is issued in Nairobi by an IATA-accredited agent: est. 1994, two offices you can walk into, and a person who answers when a connection drops at six in the morning. How ticketing works here (what happens after you ask, and the questions people put to us before they commit) is set out in full on the flights page.
