Assuming you are on SQ on one-through ticket?
In which case, 90 minutes is plenty of time, even if you do need to get from T3 to T2. There is a small chance the FRA-SIN flight will arrive at T2. SQ do often have staff at the gate for connecting passengers if the inbound flight is late.

I will be arriving on TK from IST at 17:15 T1 connecting to T4 Vietnam Airlines at 20:25 on separate tickets. No checked luggage. Likely will need to check in with VN in SIN. Is 3 hrs enough time to connect? What if I was to have checked luggage, would there be enough time?

Arriving from LAX into SIN on UA at 06.55; connecting to SQ to RGN at 07.55. No luggage and *A Gold. Separate tickets on UA stock. Knowing that this will be tight, does this meet Changi MCT? Thanks.

1 hour is tight but doable on a single ticket. Very risky on two tickets.

Hi all, in December we’re travelling BNE-SIN-KIX, with checked luggage. It’s all on one SQ ticket, but we arrive in SIN at 00:10 and depart to KIX at 01:30, which gives us 80 minutes to transit. I know this shouldn’t be a problem for us passengers even if we have to transit terminals, as long as our BNE flight is on time. But I’m wondering if this is enough time for our checked luggage to get from our BNE-SIN flight to our SIN-KIX flight? Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated. Thank you!
