So the OP has to pay to get a shower, free gets him a drink perhaps? And if he has a Priority Pass!

As stated, this is not Europe. Most hotels have no problem checking you in early. If they cannot due to high occupation, they should be able to arrange for spa access so you can take a shower. No need to spend more time than necessary in an airport, does it?

You've missed the point. What if you need to head straight to meetings? Not to mention that SQ positions itself as a premium brand.

Yup. That's why I try to stay with OW as they seem to have adopted the Arrivals Lounge concept rather more than the Star Alliance. I am flying into MUC on LH and just discovered there is no Arrivals Lounge there either.

Logistics don't justify an arrivals lounge for the SIN airport. Most passengers use SIN as a transit hub, and based on that most have connecting flights premium cabin passengers and those with status will access the lounges when in transit. So the option for the rest who are flying into SIN for business can afford to pay for the Pay Per Use lounges if they really have to.

Take an earlier flight and check into a hotel. If you can afford bus or first class you (or your organisation) should give you more leave from work for travelling on an earlier flight.

Nevertheless there are plenty of options in the airport for pay per hour hotels or lounges with showers if needed.

Our flight arrives from LHR early in the AM and doubt our hotel (MBS) will let us check-in much before 3pm so we'd like to freshen up somewhere. I guess we could consider a "day room" at Crowne Plaza if necessary.

As mentioned by others, just talk to the hotel. (MBS = Marina Bay Sands, right?). Worst case, just pay for the shower at the airport. Not to be cynical, but flying in business on SQ, and staying at MBS, implies you can afford it.

You don't mention which class your booked in, F passengers have access to The Private Room all day on arrival, details here in the last few pages of TPR access thread here. (Keep your boarding pass)

As the lounges are still airside if you have hold luggage you'll have to collect it from left luggage once exiting airport.

Just reread to see you were asking for business, sorry.

Sorry to revive the dead, but I just wanted to confirm that the info here is still accurate: Arriving in SIN on SQ in J (*G); have connecting flight 14 hours later (also J): can I enter the airside lounge on arrival for a shower before heading into town? How busy is the lounge/shower at 07:30 on a weekday? I have Priority Pass, but the paid arrival lounge showers usually have a long wait on arrival and no sense paying more for less.

Thank you

FWIW, priority pass lounges are ok too. I find the showers busier in the evenings than mornings. Shower usage is included in the priority pass lounge access in SIN (Dnata, Plaza Premium, SATS...etc)

Is this post still accurate?

Might be flying to SIN in 2024 and arriving very early. Can't check into my hotel until much later after I arrive.

I'd be interested in using my DragonPass for Lounge Access. Wondering if there is ANY lounge access available for arriving passengers under any program?
All I could find online on the Dragon Pass Website - LINK - unclear if arriving passengers have access.
