I really like Changi. Very Big! And loads of duty free shopping too. Free internet terminals, and a couple of comfortable BIG TV viewing areas and even a cinema upstairs! Can sympathise on the gates there, they are numerous, and when I first went there last year I couldn’t believe how long it took to get mine even with the escalator walk ways. Felt like more than half a kilometre!

I got to see a very different side of the airport last November. On my departure to Tokyo in the morning with SQ12, the check-in system went down and was down for hours! We pretty much all had to be checked in manually, and most flights were delayed as a result. I got to the check-in counter lineup at about 7:30am, and only left there at 9:15am! Our flight had to be moved to another part of the tarmac and away from the gate to make way for incoming flights. So, the whole lot of us, group by group, ended up on an airport bus and were driven to 747-400. We then boarded the old fashioned way! Classic! Didn’t have my camera with me then – BUMMER!

In Tokyo we got an apology letter and a really nice pen as their way of saying sorry which I thought was nice, but by then I just wanted to get to the Hotel and sleep!

SQ is just pure dominance in there service, last time i got ****ed when they served me just boiled chicken and made a compltain i actualy got an apology letter by the chef and he told me to put in whatever i wanted to eat when i travel SQ next, no matter what it is. 🙂

And Setve i always fly SQ so i dont get to goto Qantas terminal.
