“The additional capacity offered by T4 and T2 will put Changi Airport in a good position to capture this recovery and support the business and operational needs of airlines.

“To support the travel recovery, our airport partners have been actively recruiting more manpower to fill various positions in the airport, from frontline staff to airside workers. At the same time, we are accelerating efforts to secure more tenants for the two terminals, to better serve our passengers.”

Changi Airport has recorded an increase in passenger traffic following the relaxing of travel protocols on 1 April.

In the first week of June, passenger numbers reached 48% of pre-Covid-19 levels.

The reopened T4 will handle both departure and arrival flights. CAG has already started to reach out to airlines, airport partners and potential tenants to prepare for the reopening.
