Layover in Singapore question

Hi guys - I am returning from Bali on route to NYC and will have a 15 hour layover in Singapore. I arrive in Singapore on a budget airline and then depart 15 hours later on CP business class to NY. I was wondering if it would be possible to check in our luggage with CP 15 prior departure so we could enjoy singapore without having to carry our bags everywhere? Thanks so much in advance.

CP was the old Canadian Airlines call sign. Cathay Pacific is CX!

No you cannot check your luggage in 15 hours before your flight. There are stored luggage counters on the upper levels of Terminal 1 where CX flights leave from. Ask for Left Luggage counter. Cost is pretty low. Around S$6 per bag per 24 hours.

Thanks for reminding me of CP

I'm hardly the expert on all IATA / ICAO airline codes, but I'll share these (for OP and others). I can also see how some people would be confused with codes in general: Cathay is CX on sites like ExpertFlyer, but CPA on FlightAware

Some people don't know all the codes, others guess, some of us just "search"

There's early check-in available for CX at SIN.

Up to 24hrs before departure (for check-in bags)
Available from 0430hrs to 0030hrs


CX counters are at Terminal 1 Row 1. Use the Skytrain to transfer between terminals.

I checked my bags in at SIN at around mid-day for 01:20 departure with no questions asked.
