Best ways to contact Singapore Airlines

We know it all too well. Hours of waiting at a helpline just to have the call dropped. The ordeal of rescheduling canceled flights. Delayed refunds. Contacting customer service for any issue or concern can prove challenging and universally frustrating.

The goal of this article is to help you get the answer from Singapore Airlines as quickly as possible.

Let’s start with the basics – depending on the nature of your inquiry, you can call SIA using the following telephone numbers:

Do you really need to call Singapore Airlines?

Experienced travelers always use self-service options online or through the airline app first to see whether the problem can be solved without the help of an agent over the phone. For example, there’s no need to contact Singapore Airlines customer service if you just want to check the status of your booking, change the date of your flight, or cancel your trip – you can do this by visiting Manage Booking section of SIA‘s website (you will need booking reference number).

Before contacting SIA it’s always a good idea to check their help pages such as:

… or problem-specific pages with answers to the most common questions you may have:

How do I talk to a live person at Singapore Airlines?

Basically, you’ll be talking to a real person every time you call one of SIA‘ phone numbers. There may be an automatic IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system interacting with you through voice or touch-tone dialing at the beginning though – it will make sure you will reach a company’s department adequated to your issue. This is also the system that puts you on hold if the lines are busy – but rest assured that on the other side there is always a human operator you can talk to.

Calling the Singapore Airlines‘s reservation office near you is by far the best way to talk to a real person. Airline offices answer significantly fewer calls than the main call center, so they can provide their customers direct assistance over the phone, without waiting times.

Live chat is slightly different as there are many technologies (including AI and machine learning) that airlines can implement to get a “chatbot operator” experience. It is basically the software you interact with on the webchat that can recognize the meaning of the sentences you type as well as mimic human speech. But even there, a live person (part of Singapore Air‘s customer service team) is available. Try typing “talk to human”, “live agent”, or something similar to tell the chatbot that your problem requires contact with a real person.

Similar to live chat are the social media messaging systems such as Twitter DM and Facebook Messenger. You may find yourself talking to a bot at the beginning, but there is also a real operator waiting on the other side to help customers solve non-obvious issues.

Lastly, email is basically handled by humans. You may receive an auto reply right after you send the message to one of the SIA‘s email addresses (it will be marked as such), but after some time you can expect a reply from a real person.

Requesting a refund

If you want to request a refund, it can be done via the singaporeair.com website. Go to the Assistance Request Form page and select the “Cancel my booking for a refund” option to display and fill out the form. Once a refund request has been submitted, wait for the answer from Singapore Airlines. You will not be charged a penalty fee if you are a no-show for your flight.

If you need help with a reservation made not through the Singapore Airlines website/app but with a third-party such as OTA, travel agent, etc – try contacting their sales office for quick assistance.

No answer? Alternative methods to contact SIA

There are times when the airline simply won’t answer your calls. Take a deep breath, and instead of wasting time on an unsolvable task, try to get help from Singapore Airlines through one of their alternative channels:

Singapore Airlines call center waiting times

Singapore Airlines (like most airlines) employs a certain number of staff in its call centers – sufficient to serve customers under standard conditions. If these conditions change (flight cancellations due to lockdowns, peak travel times such as school holidays, etc.) the airline usually puts more resources into customer service. Unfortunately, these extra measures are not always adequate for the situation, so Singapore Airlines‘ waiting times occasionally can increase.

You issue hasn’t been resolved? You can call back and speak to another agent (she may have more experience or training) or ask to talk with a supervisor.

According to our tests, the average wait time for the Singapore Airlines call center was between 5 and 35 minutes – depending on when we were calling. However, at times when the airline gets hit with an unprecedented wave of calls amid mass cancellations, even frequent flyers with the KrisFlyer status are facing lengthy waits. With that in mind, we’ve found that some times are certainly better than others to call customer support:

Best times to call Singapore Airlines

To decrease on-hold times, try to call Singapore Airlines at off-peak times during the middle of the week (Tuesday to Thursday). Basically, the earlier in the day you call, the less you’ll have to wait. Experienced customers suggest that the best time to call is early in the morning from 4am to 7am (call center time zone) for 24/7 hotlines or just right as the call center opens. Late hours on weekends can increase the chance for your call to be answered promptly.

Consider dialing a foreign call center as a workaround to reduce your holding times.

Direct messages (DM) sent to Singapore Airlines social media channels often get a response and solution within minutes. If you are experiencing long waiting times when calling helpline, try to contact the airline directly on Twitter or Facebook.

Singapore Airlines phone numbers

Here’s an important tip if you are experiencing long waiting times at the SIA‘s call center:

Instead of competing for time with the call center in Singapore, jump the line by dialing the ones in other countries – Australia, US, UK, Canada, etc. International customer service can handle your booking just the same as the main call center. Travelers report that the Singapore Airlines helpline in Australia (13 10 11) has much shorter wait times – sometimes just a few minutes.

As a last resort head for the foreign language-speaking call center. It will help if you are comfortable with that language, but generally, the hotline staff also should speak English.

Consider using Internet phone services like Google Voice, Skype, Talkatone, or Viber to call Singapore Airlines phone numbers when you are overseas to avoid high rates.

Politeness wins the day! No matter how you get in touch and how stressful is your problem, your best bet for getting what you want is to be a decent person – it helps to be levelheaded and respectful. Take a deep breath and imagine yourself on the other side of the phone.

Customer care for KrisFlyer members

If you have questions regarding KrisFlyer (Singapore Airlines‘s loyalty program) you can call 65 6223 8888 or the phone number for customer service near you.

KrisFlyer customer service can help you check your account balance, process the flight redemption and upgrades, make a reservation, or just answer any questions about the frequent flyer program.

You can also get in touch with a KrisFlyer representative via email (KF_contact@singaporeair.com.sg) or online chat.

If you are already at the airport, you can head into the KrisFlyer Gold Lounges or SilverKris Lounge and ask the airlines representative for help. Of course, you should make sure you have a KrisFlyer Elite Gold status or you have a different type of access the lounge area.

Booking through a travel agent can be a game-changer!

If you hate dealing with airlines’ customer care, consider using a travel agent to book your flights. They can remove all that drama from your booking experience. Good travel agents have “air teams” behind them (who have relationships with airlines), often work via a bigger agency, or with support of incredibly strong networks and connections.

When an airline cancels a flight or makes a change to your itinerary, travel agents have the power to handle this for you, on your behalf. They don’t even need to speak to the airline in most cases, since they have access to the backend of a booking system and are permitted to make changes to your reservation. Sometimes, they can even “bend” the rules.

The best thing: you’ll typically pay the same price for the flight ticket. Commissions made by agents generally come from the airline side, not from the customer side.

Don’t wait on hold: message SIA directly

Getting help from Singapore Airlines over the phone often means long waits. So here’s our advice: before you start calling the helpline, try to get a quick fix by contacting them via social media channels. Many travelers are reporting that they get a quicker response there. Most large airlines have teams of social media specialists, and in our experience, there’s no faster or easier way to get an issue solved.

To contact SIA support on Twitter, visit their @SingaporeAir profile.

To contact SIA on Facebook, visit facebook.com/singaporeairid, then look for the Send Message button – it opens the Facebook Messenger window, where you can chat with the airline staff.

Never share personal details on Facebook public wall, or on Twitter feed. Always use the private Send Message button on Facebook to contact the airline.

When it comes to Twitter there’s one more trick to get in touch with the airline faster: mention @SingaporeAir in a tweet about your issue. SIA team will often notice it immediately and provide an answer. It’s a method we recommend if your issue is particularly urgent.

How to file a formal complaint?

Sometimes you may wish to formally file a complaint with the hope that someone will address your concerns quickly. Delayed or lost baggage, booking cancellations, problems with getting a refund, excessive fees or charges, etc. are some of the issues you may want to complain about to Singapore Airlines.

To file a complaint you should contact the Singapore Airlines Customer Relations department by filling out the Feedback Form. You should receive a response within a few working days.

If you are unsatisfied with how Singapore Airlines settles your complaint, you can contact the Airline Customer Advocate (ACA) body in your country. The ACA works as “the ombudsman” (an official appointed to investigate individuals’ complaints against a company) to help you resolve problematic issues or concerns with an airline and it provides a free and independent service to airline customers.

For example, if you live in the United States, you can file a complaint to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Aviation Consumer Protection Division. In the United Kingdom, you can lodge a complaint directly with AviationADR – a dispute resolution scheme approved by the Civil Aviation Authority. Please note that it may take up to 90 days for the ombudsman to resolve your complaint.
