From Rome (€467) the cheapest flight leaves at 10:40, waits about 9 hours in Helsinki and lands in Singapore at 18:40 the next day. On some dates an 18:40 departure costs the same, with a much shorter connection. From Milan (€474) you leave Malpensa at 19:00, change planes in Helsinki after 1 hour and land at 18:40 the next day. The flight home leaves Singapore at 22:05. The Economy Light fare includes a cabin bag but no checked bag.
💰 How far does your money go?
Singapore is not cheap, but its hawker centres are. A plate of Hainanese chicken rice costs about €3.50, less than a cappuccino and a cornetto at a bar in Milan. The MRT gets you across the island for around €1.50. Alcohol is where it hurts: a beer at a bar can cost €10 or more, so drink at the hawker centres.
☀️ The Weather
January and February are warm and a little less humid in Singapore. Expect highs of 30-31°C, nights around 24°C and short tropical showers, mostly in the afternoon. February is usually the driest month of the year.
