...a twenty-minute drive out of Singapore City centre. Covering two new terminals (1981 and 1990), serving over sixty airlines, 174,000 flights annually, 140 different destinations and around 29 million passengers this is one of the largest airports in Asia. This is a multi-award-winning place and they like to sell themselves as being almost a destination in their own right! All that’s well and good but what’s it like to actually fly into ...

...on the Eastern Tip of Singapore about 20 minutes drive, traffic permitting, from the city centre. For those of you that are geographically minded: Latitude 01 21' 23" North, Longitude 103 59' 28" East.
The Airport covers 1,300 hectares, of which 870 were reclaimed from the sea. The two runways are 60Metres wide and run parallel for 4000Metres. Operations commenced in July 1981 with Terminal 1, Terminal 2 opened in November of the same year, and ...

Advantages: It is clean, spacious and a pleasant atmosphere Disadvantages: Not the best selection of places to eat and drink
...going to boarding school in Singapore I came to know Singapore's ariport very well. It, like most of Singapore is clean and friendly, and I can honestly say it is the best airport I have ever been to.
Terminal 2 is where most international flights come through, where as Terminal 1 is more for domestic flights.
Arriving there though can be extremely daunting as the airport itself is massive and it is extremely easy to get lost if you dont know ...

...and quiet by myself since Singapore is so small. I particularly like to go to the spacious viewing gallery in terminal Two when I feeling bored or depressed. Watching air planes take off is an enjoyment to me. My good friends and I would have a dinner gathering each year at one of the airport restaurants. It is the place which reminds me of my O' levels which I spent much time revising at the viewing gallery, the place which provides air conditioning ...

...I had to stop in Singapore Airport for five hours. It was two in the morning and all were nackered, but we couldn't help taking in the fantasticness of this place.
The airport management seem to be totally convinced that nobody can get bored at their airport. So they keep all the shops open throughout the night, and they actually only close for lunch.
You will also find that bands or music groups and choirs will turn up and play at ridiculous ...

Singapore Changi International Airport is a perfect entry point to Singapore,the "Mighty Midget" at the heart of South East Asia.This remarkably efficient airport,once a Japanese prisoner-of-war camp,is a huge,glistening,state-of-the-art airtropolis that pilots,passengers and crtics all rave about. It is regularly voted by international organisations and magazines to be among the best in the world.
There is no doubt that is a very well equipped airport. ...

Advantages: Disadvantages:
I visited singapore airport twice for connecting flights to Sydney Australia. The airport gave me an impression that singapore would be a great place to visit. I know airports are clean, but this airport was so clean. I think that there are many amenities there, including some great places to eat food. A vast selection of duty free products is also present. THe amount of electrical goods of a high technology were available at duty free prices.
There ...

Advantages: Very clean, helpful staff. well airconditioned, pleanty of space Disadvantages: very few
I arrived at Singapore airport after a 13 hour flight from London Heathrow , my first ever flight, at the start of a 4 month holiday world tour. The initial impressions that i gained were ones of such high levels of cleanliness which was the same where ever i went in Singapore. It did make me wonder why ever city and airport could not be this clean. As a new traveller by my self I was a little disorientated in this new country especially after the ...

Advantages: Extremely clean, good selection of shops Disadvantages: None
Many pass through Singapore Aiport as it is often used as a stop-over on the way to Australasia. Even if you are not staying overnight, or perhaps for a bit longer, you are likely to spend a few hours here while your plane is cleaned and refuelled etc.
The first thing to strike me about this particular airport is its extremely high standards of cleanliness. I have honestly never seen any public place more immaculate. It is beautifully decorated ...

...I must tell you about Singapore Airport. It is everything that Heathrow isn't.
First of all let me tell you if you are catching another flight and are in-transit the signs are very clear and point you in the right direction. You may have quite a long walk ahead of you but the ambiance of the airport makes your journey seem shorter. There are lots of moving walkways and shops along the way.
Shops in the main area are well set out with varied ...

Overall this should be a model for other airports. It's about the only one I actively look forward to spending a few hours in.
Changi - It's almost a destination in itself!
PS (added after Karens comment) On the one occasion that I have actually begun a journey in Singapore the check-in at Changi was swift and efficient for me, the staff were ...

What an introduction to the Far East! Arriving at Changi Airport you could be stepping out into any modern 'western' international airport. Then you realise that something is different, the place is spotless - not a drop of litter anywhere!. The airport is very well organised and the staff are friendly and helpful. It seems that in this airport a lot of thought has gone into the 'caring' for the traveller aspect. Comfortable seating, smoking areas ...

...business trip. Situated in Singapore which is in the middle of the sea routes and air routes, this is an ideal place for one to transit or enjoy a few days off. It's located on the east end of the island, and one can take a cab/taxi or public bus to the city center. Changi airport also has restaurants for the visitor or the weary traveller to rest, plus great decor inside. With the addition of terminal 2, Changi airport is now poised to have a higher ...

Advantages: easy to walk around, fast bags retrevial Disadvantages: boarding gates
Changi Singapore airport is best airport worldwide till the boarding time comes.
The concept of security screening at each gate generates every time a long line there and then, using a single airbridge to board the aircraft, the priority for First and Business class as well as families with small children is never achieved despite the efforts of ground staff as oce boarding time is called everybody ruch to the gate.
Beside this Changi is a friendly ...

People are friendly, and very helpful. The signs are clear too, you can get around in the airport without any difficulty. When I reach the main entrance of the terminal, I found a row of taxis awaiting you. No fuss at all to travel from airport ...
