Changi Airport Group has reopened the southern wing of its newly revamped Terminal 2 (T2) departure hall, following the resumption of arrival operations at the terminal in May this year.
Singapore Airlines (SIA) flights SQ104 bound for Kuala Lumpur and SQ706 flying to Bangkok were the first flights to depart from T2. A total of 17 SIA flights bound for Malaysia and Thailand will take off from T2 today, followed by the rest of SIA’s South East Asian destinations from 13 October 2022. From 18 October 2022, Air India (AI) and Air India Express (IX) will also move to T2 to start operations.
Automated check-in kiosks are available for passengers who prefer to self-serve, before dropping off their luggage at the baggage drop-off counters. Thereafter, they can proceed to clear immigration via the automated immigration clearance gates.
Some 25 outlets are open from today, such as Lotte Duty Free Wines and Spirits, Cosmetics and Perfume by Shilla and Straits Food Village. A number of familiar shops and services, such as Starbucks and SingPost, have returned to their original store locations. For those looking for even more shopping and dining options, they can simply hop onto the Skytrain to the Terminal 3 transit area, which is less than three minutes ride away.
T2’s transit hotel and pay-per-use lounge are open to departing and transit passengers, while eligible customers may use SIA’s SilverKris Lounge at T2. Behind the scenes, various airport systems, such as air-conditioning chillers and baggage handling system have also been upgraded
