Changi Airport improvements: S$3b to be invested on upgrades; passenger, airline charges to go up

[@ulfw]

LOL. That huge mall on airport grounds hasn't brought in $$$ enough? >26% increases for passengers

[@AlexWatson-t1f]

Why don't you extend the railway to Terminal 3 or Terminal 4?

[@amazingstarzz]

Terminal 4 is a budget terminal hence the “lack” of services. T3 has both the skytrain & MRT tho.

[@AlexWatson-t1f]

@@amazingstarzz Yes. I couldn't remember which Terminal it was. Thanks. Changi Airport was great. It would be better with the railway connection to Terminal 4. Singapore is a well run country.

[@raheelaarshad711]

Completely agree, there should be a skytrain or subway that connects T4 to the rest of the terminals

[@botaklick_133]

dont replace the skytrain is already supergood than the other one

[@LonganLee]

In other words, who will be paying all this, Ultimately?

[@LonganLee]

Congrats to young singaporeans . Your future is... Good luck

[@joellim7010]

Thanks to the PAP, our future is destroyed. Thanks for reminding us that. haha

[@unterseeboot4563]

Increase charges will show that the airport is more reliable??

[@joellim7010]

I doubt so. The Singapore government keeps increasing public transportation fares but Singapore's MRT keeps breaking down and the break downs are getting more and more serious.

[@deebusoh9023]

Such small city need 5 airports?

[@fongwilliam707]

Pap just wanted to impress outside world that we got big and huge airport and world best shopping centre but give the citizens expensive and a pigeon hole bto to live in

[@jer2911.L]

@@fongwilliam707 Emigration could be a solution for you.

[@ganboonmeng5370]

Please please please...I worry...we will make it so expensive...nobody will come😢😮

[@henrytan2013]

You want to upgrade but you let the whole world pay for it. Can i ask the government to pay for my renovation for my house?

[@AlbertHarris-q2v]

What PAP stands for ? You make the bed you sleep on it don’t KPKB

[@LiXianYang001]

PAP government taxes Singaporeans when they earn(income tax), spend(GST), and invest in properties(ABSD). Now, they won't even let Singaporeans enjoy having leisure and travelling abroad. Would Singaporeans continue to pay and pay to no end?

[@Bricky_comedian]

Meanwhile the BPLRT is slowly falling apart

[@MyHanck]

why are we doing this

[@dd-dd2co]

Singaporeans bear the cost, of course.. why are we not surprised. We did not ask for this.

[@raheelaarshad711]

I don’t see why Changi Airport needs upgrading, it’s good enough already

[@SongShiyu]

Our amenities are falling behind other top airports, so are the apparatus and processes. Other airports doesn't require passengers to remove anything from their bags, we do. Because we are still using outdated technologies. Its the small things that makes an airport the top airport and sadly we are no longer there. Of course , as you mentioned, there's absolutely no need to upgrade, but Singapore being Singapore, just wants that piece of glory, at the cost of it's airport staffs. The upgrades will better service the passengers, but the staff's lives will remain miserable since nothing is affordable there anymore, even with staff discount. There are no cheap staff meals anymore because of the hike in prices.

[@raheelaarshad711]

I agree with ur point. Should invest in their staffs, such as increasing in wages and benefits, especially in meals. In that way, the employees will not only stay in the long term but will also be happy to serve our passengers.

[@JunWeiLong-x1m]

They can avoid increasing cost . If they did not give out absurd bonus to their staff. Get rid of scam green energy too. We got to follow US drill baby drill to lower the petrol cost.

[@Way2go926]

Still using boeing after all that quality issue scandals???

[@duck_that_quacks]

what a naive way of looking at the aviation industry.

[@jer2911.L]

Without Boeing, world travel comes to a standstill.

[@duck_that_quacks]

@@Way2go926 like to complain so much, you want a full Airbus fleet, sure, quadruple your ticket prices then the airlines will be happy to pay for it 👍

[@ryokolynn6948]

'Airlines charges to go up' spell the beginning doom of Singapore changi airport as Malaysia or Indonesia might take over as a stopover hub.

[@jer2911.L]

Your assumption is correct. Master Cheonggong predicted that Malaysia or Indonesia will take over as a stopover hub in year 2525.

[@monizag]

Hamad airport is number 1? LOL complete nonsense airport is number 1.
