The public toilets in Jewel beat even some 5 star hotel ones. On top of that, it always clean, like there's a cleaner who inspects it every 5 mins or something like that.

[@lazybois2958]

Yep. Im proud of our airport toilets. The only place where you can shit and smell flowers once youre done

[@elevatorfilmersg]

Alvin Koh MBS one probably better lol, but the jewel toilet seems very good.

[@slaiyfershin]

While I believe a lot of the things we boast are just baseless self-promotions by the gov, our public toilet infrastructure is def very good (except coffeeshops). It has ruined me. Going overseas, public toilets (not having to enter a shop just to use) are so rare even for first-world places like States for e.g.

I am an Indian. I have been to Singapore twice. And as people say "The First Impression is the Best Impression", Singapore follows this very religiously. Changi Airport is their First and probably "The Best" Impression. This is one Airport, where no one ever gets bored. There is a lot to see and explore. Most importantly, there are a lot of activities which can be done by the passengers. Needless to say, the Indian food here at the Airport actually tastes better than many of the authentic restaurants in India. The city of course is a visual delight, be it the areas around the Marina Bay, the Jurong Park, Singapore Flyer, Merlion, or the Classic Raffles Hotel, each and everything in S'pore is awesome. Would love to come back again and again to this wonderful Country🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Aurica34]

Really? Indian food at the airport is better than those in India Restaurants based in India? Surely that is an exaggeration. I am proud to be Singaporean but .... I don't dare to claim Indian food found in Singapore Airport food is better than authentic India cuisine found in India.

[@taifongtey2375]

Well done guys. As a Singaporean,i am so proud of our airport. Best Airport in the world!

I agree there's no airport like Singapore by faar the most beautiful Airport in this planet I was so impressed with how clean and this was back in 1999.😍😇

[@ainsleyfrastructurekpopmashups]

As an ASEAN Citizen Living in the Philippines, I Am Proud of this Changi Airport that is Now the Best Airport in the World, Hoping in the Philippines, The Airport Being Built in Bulacan will Have a Centerpiece Like Jewel of Changi that will be Unique Also and Also, If Bulacan International Airport is Completed, Not Only will be the Busiest Airport in the World Since it has 200 Million Passenger Capacity per Year tied with Istanbul Airport, But Also It Will be the Best Airport in the World Since will be a More Better Airport than Changi Airport If Bulacan International Airport is Fully Completed According to their Plans.

It Is Also My First Ever ‘Shopping Malls’ In Singapore I Have Visited Weekly Since Its Opening. The Upcoming Punggol Digital District Will Likely Be A Remake Of Jewel Changi Airport As Well. For The Kirby Game - Kirby's Return To Dream Land Is For Jewel Changi Airport And Punggol Digital District.
