The Haven by JetQuay, a pay-per-use lounge
located outside the immigration zone at Singapore’s Changi
Airport, has opened.
Situated at the Arrival Hall, Level 1 at
Terminal 3, it offers a host of services to cater to business and
leisure travellers, including families with children.
The Lounge
is accessible for use by passengers in transit, arriving
passengers who have cleared Customs, as well as departing
passengers prior to checking-in with their airline.
The Haven by JetQuay, operated by Worldwide Flight Services, offers
shower and nap facilities, as well as meeting rooms, lounge,
self-service F&B counter and a business centre.
Mr. Barry D. Nassberg,
Group Chief Operating Officer of Worldwide Flight Services, said, “We anticipate
strong demand from various segments. Customers arriving on
long-haul flights early in the morning, departing on evening
flights or those on long transits will find the services
useful. Customers can have the flexibility of paying only for the
services required, as well as enjoy the freedom of movement and
access to shops and restaurants outside the immigration zone.
We are looking to collaborate with industry partners and
corporates to offer a range of attractive services and offerings
to meet their varying needs.”
The 558-square-metre interior sports wood and stone finishes in
neutral hues infused with dashes of green for a refreshing and cosy interior. It is furnished with comfortable sofas and
armchairs with a play area for children nestled in the lounge area. There is a dining area where guests can have a hot light
meal, included in the packages, selected from an all-day menu.
Each of the 18 Nap Rooms accommodates a maximum of one adult and
one child. Several of them are connecting rooms to cater to
families with children. The rooms are available for a minimum
of three hours and can be extended with additional hourly charges.
Guests will have access to cable television and LAN point and
Wi-Fi connection.
With 13 shower rooms, as well as six restroom
facilities, the lounge offers a private and relaxing spot to
freshen up with a shower. Guests can catch up on the news and
their emails in comfort at the lounge, before heading to the
city for meetings or to check in at their hotel.
For business
travellers, two meeting rooms are available on the premises, with
one accommodating four persons and the other room six persons.
These can be combined into one meeting room if required. A
fully equipped business centre with fax and copier machines, as
well as computers, provides the needed convenience for business
travellers.
Mr Jeremy Yeo, Assistant Vice President, Landside
Concessions, said, “At Changi Airport, we are constantly looking out
for ways to better meet our passengers’ needs, to offer them
more comfort and leisure, as well as cater to their functional and
business requirements. The launch of The Haven at T3 provides a
comfortable respite to passengers at Changi Airport’s public
areas, allowing them to rest and relax before boarding their
flights, further enhancing our suite of facilities and service
offerings.”
The services and facilities are available on
a first-come-first-served basis though a limited number of
advance reservations for Nap Rooms and Meeting Rooms will be
accepted.
