Looking for cheap flights from Varanasi to Singapore? FlightGPT compares live VNS to SIN fares across every connected source — Indian carriers, Gulf hubs, OTAs and trusted travel agents — and shows the cheapest options side by side. Whether you want a Varanasi to Singapore non-stop tomorrow, a last-minute weekend deal or the lowest price three months out, every active Varanasi-Singapore fare is one search away.
Because VNS has no direct Singapore service, every itinerary involves a domestic feeder flight to a gateway city, then an international sector onward to Changi. The fastest combination is typically a morning VNS–DEL hop on IndiGo (≈ 1h 30m), followed by a same-terminal connection to the Air India or Singapore Airlines DEL–SIN non-stop (≈ 5h 30m), giving a total door-to-gate time of roughly 8–9 hours. Alternatively, routing via Mumbai adds about 30–60 minutes to the journey but can unlock different fare buckets, especially on Air India's BOM–SIN sector which runs ≈ 5h 45m. Travellers on a budget often choose a Kolkata (CCU) or Chennai (MAA) feeder followed by an AirAsia or Scoot flight to Singapore, but these ultra-low-cost options need careful baggage planning since they rarely interline.
Singapore Airlines is the premium pick — it codeshares with Air India on the Delhi leg and flies DEL–SIN daily in a single connecting booking, meaning bags transfer and the airline takes responsibility for the connection. IndiGo operates its own DEL–SIN and HYD–SIN non-stops which pair cleanly with its domestic VNS feeders. Air India runs BOM–SIN and DEL–SIN. On the KL routing, AirAsia's DEL–KUL sector (≈ 5h 40m) combines with a short KUL–SIN hop (≈ 1h), but both legs must be booked separately. Malaysia Airlines via KL is a middle-ground option with more generous baggage than AirAsia. Note that Vistara no longer exists as a separate airline — it merged fully into Air India in 2024.
Singapore attracts Indian visitors year-round, which means fares rarely collapse. The best windows for lower economy prices are typically late May through early July (before the Singapore school holiday peak in June), and the September–early October lull that falls between Hari Raya and Diwali demand spikes. Chinese New Year (January–February) and the December festive season drive the highest prices. Booking roughly 8–12 weeks ahead tends to deliver the strongest advance-purchase discounts; flexible-date searches on FlightGPT can reveal savings of around 15–20% compared to a fixed-date lookup. Mid-week departures (Tuesday or Wednesday from Varanasi) are consistently a few hundred rupees cheaper than weekend travel.
Via Delhi, expect roughly 8–10 hours door-to-gate including a comfortable 1.5–2h connection. Via KL or Mumbai, total elapsed time stretches to 10–12 hours. Singapore Standard Time (SGT) is UTC+8, which is 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of India Standard Time. A flight that departs Varanasi at 06:00 IST reaches Delhi by 07:30, then lands in Singapore around 14:00 SGT on a fast connection. Singapore does not observe daylight-saving time, so the 2h 30m offset is constant throughout the year. Changi Airport is about 20 km east of the city centre; the MRT East–West Line reaches the CBD in under 30 minutes for roughly SGD 2.
Singapore Airlines typically includes 25–30 kg checked baggage in economy on international sectors. IndiGo's international base fare covers 20 kg but its domestic VNS–DEL feeder may offer only 15 kg, creating a mismatch if you have 20 kg of luggage. When booking as separate tickets (i.e., not on a single PNR), ensure each leg covers your actual luggage weight or pre-purchase add-ons online — airport excess-baggage rates are significantly higher. AirAsia charges separately for all checked bags. Cabin carry-on limits are 7 kg on most carriers. On a single through-ticket with Singapore Airlines or Air India, the international baggage allowance typically applies to the whole journey.
Indian passport holders are not visa-free for Singapore — an In-Principle Approval (IPA) or an eVisa through an authorised Singapore agent is required for tourist visits. Singapore does not offer visa-on-arrival for Indians. Most travellers apply through a Singapore-registered sponsor (a hotel or travel agent) who submits the application on their behalf through Singapore Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA); the process typically takes 3–5 working days. Some frequent travellers to Singapore may be eligible for a multi-entry visa. If you are transiting Changi without leaving the transit area, no visa is required for most Indians — but confirm your transit classification before travel. See /visas for current Singapore entry requirements.
Varanasi's Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport (VNS) is a single-terminal facility located about 26 km north-west of the old city and the ghats. Cabs and auto-rickshaws are available outside arrivals; the journey to Dashashwamedh Ghat takes about 40–50 minutes. Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) is the likely transit hub — Singapore-bound international flights depart from Terminal 3 (T3), which is also where IndiGo's domestic arrivals and departures are handled. Singapore's Changi Airport (SIN) has four terminals: Singapore Airlines typically uses T2 and T3, IndiGo arrives at T4, and AirAsia uses T4. Terminal numbers are on your boarding pass — allow 15–20 minutes if an inter-terminal transfer is needed.
When building a VNS–SIN itinerary with two separate tickets, book the domestic leg to arrive at the hub at least 3 hours before the international departure; BCAS security, immigration, and the walk to an international gate at T3 Delhi can take 60–90 minutes. If you have one through-ticket and your first flight is delayed, the airline is responsible for rebooking you. Carry your Singapore visa documents, return flight ticket, hotel booking, and proof of funds in hand luggage — immigration officers occasionally request them. Singapore has a strict policy on chewing gum, vaping products, and certain medications, so check the Singapore Customs permitted-items list before packing.
Singapore is a remarkably compact city-state — most major attractions (Gardens by the Bay, Sentosa, Little India on Serangoon Road, and Mustafa Centre) are within 30–40 minutes of Changi by MRT. The city has a large Tamil-speaking South Asian community around Serangoon and Tekka Market, which may feel familiar to travellers from Varanasi's UP-Hindi background. The Singapore dollar (SGD) trades at roughly ₹61–65 per SGD as of 2026, so budget accordingly. Indoor malls are heavily air-conditioned; carry a light layer. Singapore is one of the safest cities in Asia for solo and family travellers.
No non-stop service operates from VNS to SIN. The fastest routing connects through Delhi, with total travel time roughly 8–10 hours including the layover.
Singapore Airlines via Delhi offers the smoothest single-ticket connection with through-checked baggage. IndiGo is a strong budget choice, pairing its domestic VNS–DEL leg with its own DEL–SIN service.
Economy round-trips typically start from roughly ₹18,000–30,000 during off-peak months (May–June, September). December and January fares are considerably higher. Check FlightGPT for live prices.
Yes — Indian passport holders need a Singapore eVisa or IPA, applied through an authorised sponsor or travel agent. Processing usually takes 3–5 working days. Visa-on-arrival is not available for Indians.
Singapore is 2 hours 30 minutes ahead of India (SGT = UTC+8; IST = UTC+5:30). This gap is constant year-round as Singapore does not use daylight-saving time.
All flights land at Singapore Changi Airport (SIN). Terminal varies by airline — Singapore Airlines uses T2/T3, IndiGo arrives at T4. The MRT from Changi reaches the city in under 30 minutes.
