It has been confirmed VA lounge at CBR will stay open late for the CBR-SIN leg, however no access for passengers originating in WLG (or for the reverse originating in SIN and continuing to WLG).

Happened to be leaving Fairbairn as it landed... good timing...lol
Fire trucks were out to escort it in.... folks with cameras set up along the perimeter fence.....
Parked at the terminal it looked like a 1/48th scale model in a 1/72nd scale diorama....

Question is why not? Do Aussies/Kiwis who do WLG-SIN be able to get 2 boarding passes for WLG-CBR and CBR-SIN? Then they can just come through immigration and then just go to the lounge, and then clear immigration again and leave CBR?

If flights are on time there is only about 45 minutes from arrival to reboarding.

No lounge access although business class passengers can have one food item and one drink item free from the cafe in CBR international gate area (need to show boarding pass). I don't think this extends to *G passengers flying in economy.

Hi all,
A noob question. Is the transit through CBR visa/ETA-free, for passengers travelling between SIN and WLG in both directions? There was an earlier report somewhere that this was being worked on.
I tried asking SQ Reservations, and was told to check with my local embassy
Thanks in advance!
