Find Cheap Flights to Singapore and Book the Perfect Flight for Your Trip

This period brings relatively drier weather, but also the highest influx of tourists, especially around the winter holidays and Chinese New Year. Expect higher prices for flights and accommodation.

This is an excellent time to find better Singapore flight deals as the peak season ends. The weather is warm and humid, with short but intense rain showers.

This period is marked by high temperatures and constant humidity. Although it is not the peak season, events like the Great Singapore Sale attract many visitors, maintaining moderate demand for Bucharest Singapore flights.

This is considered the period with the most rainfall, although the showers are usually short and followed by sunshine. It is a good time to find the cheapest flights to Singapore, as demand is lower.

Romanian citizens do not need a visa for stays up to 90 days in Singapore. Only a passport valid for at least six months from the date of entry is required. Make sure you also have a return or onward flight ticket, as this may be requested upon arrival by immigration officers. Although not mandatory, travel medical insurance is highly recommended due to the high costs of medical services. Before leaving, check the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the latest information on entry conditions. Adherence to the strict rules of the city-state, such as the ban on chewing gum (with medical exceptions) and cleanliness, is essential for a smooth visit. Singapore is renowned for its efficiency, so the entry process is usually quick and orderly, provided you have your documents ready.

Singapore's public transport system is among the best in the world, being fast and very clean. The metro (MRT) and buses cover almost the entire city. To travel, purchase an EZ-Link card or a Singapore Tourist Pass, which offers unlimited travel for 1, 2, or 3 days. Using the metro is much simpler and faster than in Bucharest, with well-marked stations and air conditioning. Taxis and ride-sharing services (like Grab, the local equivalent of Uber) are readily available but more expensive. Note that congestion charges apply during peak hours and in central areas. From Changi Airport, the fastest way to reach the center is by MRT train. Walking is pleasant in certain areas, but due to the tropical climate, you will prefer underground or air-conditioned transport for long distances.

Accommodation options in Singapore range from hostels to luxury hotels, but prices are generally higher than in Romania. The most popular neighborhoods for tourists are Marina Bay (for luxury and spectacular views), Orchard Road (for shopping), Clarke Quay (for nightlife), and Chinatown or Little India (for cultural atmosphere and more affordable prices). If you are looking for better deals, consider areas outside the center but close to an MRT station. Booking well in advance is crucial, especially during peak seasons. Singapore hotels are renowned for cleanliness and excellent services. Always check if the price includes the service charge and VAT, which can add a considerable amount to the final bill. Many travelers choose to stay near MRT stations to maximize exploration time.

Singapore is one of the safest cities in the world, with an extremely low crime rate. However, be mindful of your personal belongings in crowded areas, as everywhere else. Local customs are strict and must be respected: littering, spitting, or smoking in prohibited areas incur heavy fines. Chewing gum is prohibited. Basic etiquette includes respect for the elderly and authorities. When visiting temples or places of worship, dress modestly and remove your shoes. Tipping is not mandatory, as a 10% service charge is often included in the bill. Be aware of large fines for jaywalking. Singapore is a multicultural city, so tolerance and respect for diverse ethnic groups are expected.

Singaporean cuisine is a vibrant mix of Malaysian, Chinese, and Indian influences. Don't miss the Hawker Centres, which offer high-quality street food at very low prices. Must-try dishes include Chili Crab, Hainanese Chicken Rice, and Laksa. Unlike Romania, where street food can be risky, hygiene standards in Singapore are extremely high. Eat at Lau Pa Sat or Maxwell Road centers. A full meal at a Hawker Centre costs around 5-10 SGD, much less than at regular restaurants. Try fresh tropical fruit juices. For an authentic local experience, sit at the same table with locals, but don't forget to reserve your spot by leaving a packet of tissues on the table – a custom called 'chope'.

Singapore offers a unique combination of nature and modern architecture. For a first visit, allocate at least 4-5 days. Main attractions include Gardens by the Bay (with Supertrees and spectacular conservatories), Marina Bay Sands (for the rooftop view), Sentosa Island (for beaches and theme parks), and cultural quarters such as Chinatown and Little India. For nature lovers, visit the Botanic Gardens (UNESCO heritage) and Singapore Zoo. Purchasing a Singapore Pass can be cost-effective if you plan to visit many sights. Plan your outdoor visits early in the morning or evening to avoid the intense midday heat. Book tickets online to save time and sometimes money. Don't forget to explore less touristy areas, such as Tiong Bahru, for a more local perspective on life in Singapore.
