Why I recommend this place to visitors — 2 years ago
I normally don’t get overly excited about most airports. Some of them have little interesting aspects to them, but most of them are about the same. Changi Airport in Singapore is very different. It’s a wonderful place to embark, debark, or make a connection.
Here are some of the things that impressed me about Changi:
- It’s amazingly clean
- People who work there are polite and friendly
- Love the free massage chairs
- The fish pond is a nice place to relax
- The rooftop gardens are beautiful
- Free movies in the airport theater
- In-transit hotel where you can take a nap, or just a shower between flights if you desire
- Drinking fountains (a rarity outside the US), automatic ones even
- Shops had good merchandise at reasonable prices (for an airport)
- Same with food, good variety, prices not too bad
- Very modern and aesthetically pleasing
- Very relaxing atmosphere there overall
