Is this enough time for transit on separate ticket? Or I should book SQ875 arriving at SIN at 16:30 (transit for 4:10) instead?
Note: There is a later flight SQ893 which arrives at SIN on 7:50pm (50m transit) which I thought would be too tight on separate ticket.
I’d personally choose the 4:10 transit time, especially if you have checked bags that need to be claimed and rechecked. If the first flight is delayed and causes you to miss the 2nd flight, SQ has no obligation to rebook you without extra charges since they are separate tickets.
