Singapore Changi Airport is set to open its latest terminal: Terminal 4, later this year,

and I was lucky to be invited as part of a media tour of this new terminal building, which is compact and has a boutique feel.

Based on the theme of fun, vibrant, and positively surprising, Terminal 4 is designed to create a sense of spaciousness, and uses natural light and lush greenery to create a bright and relaxing ambiance. Various contemporary artwork, including six giant Petalclouds adds to the traveller’s experience, as with the LED displays, which include the Immersive Wall that spans across the centralised security screening area. The Heritage Zone façade (with colourful shophouses that pays tribute to Singapore’s rich Peranakan culture) also reveals a theatrical play, “Peranakan Love Story”, a romance story that would captivate travellers awaiting their flights. This unique airport experience has to be one of my favourite parts of the terminal.

As with the existing terminals, Terminal 4 will feature an array – over 80 of them – of retail and food and beverage outlets.

Nine airlines: AirAsia Group (Malaysia AirAsia, Indonesia AirAsia, Philippines AirAsia, Thai AirAsia), Cathay Pacific Airways, Cebu Pacific Air, Korean Air, Spring Airlines, and Vietnam Airlines will move their operations to Terminal 4 when it is opened.
