Travelers who need to recharge can go for relaxing spa treatments or catch 40 winks at the transit hotels. There is even a rooftop swimming pool with a gorgeous view of the tarmac.

An array of free entertainment is available ’round the clock. Fancy catching a blockbuster? Visit the movie theatres in Terminals 2 and 3.What about getting thrilled and relaxing at the Entertainment Deck, which offers facilities such as LAN gaming, Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and cozy music corners? Passengers in need of connectivity can enjoy airport-wide free WiFi or surf at one of 500 free Internet terminals.

At Changi, there is always something exciting taking place. It could be the opportunity to get up close with celebrities, such as Lady Gaga or renowned golfer Colin Montgomerie, during one of Changi’s regular meet-and-greet sessions. Or it could be a shopping promotion with the possibility of winning $1 million! Those in transit for more than five hours can sign up for free sightseeing tours to catch a glimpse of Singapore’s vibrant garden city.

For shopaholics and gourmet lovers, Changi Airport is the place to be. The retail scene boasts more than 200 shops, offering leading luxury brands, duty-free liquor and cosmetics, electronics and jewelery.
