If both flights are on the same ticket, then BD should be able to check your luggage straight through to the SQ flight. As for check in time, I'm habitually very early - but I probably would not leave it less the 90 minutes, just to be safe.

The check in time is no different than any domestic flight so 1 hour will be more than enough. There probably won't be a queue to check in anyway as pretty much everybody is forced to use the SSCI machines.

If you have a paper ticket just show them that and they will do it for you. However, if you have an e-ticked (example booked on SQ's website), you MUST print off the confirmation page for BD to be able to send your bags all the way through. It may be possible if you don't have this, but it takes time and creates all sorts of hassles.

This is a strange routing ...
If I may ask, why route via MAN rather than take one of SIA's thrice daily non-stops ex-LHR ? Was it because of the price ?

using SAS miles for the ticket, no availability out of London on the direct services but could fly LHR-MAN-SIN for same miles and i particularly wanted to try the SQ service
