Changi Airport in Singapore to Close T4

Changi Airport has confirmed plans to temporarily suspend operations at Terminal 4 (T4) from 16 May 2020.

Airlines currently based in T4 will operate out of T1 or T3 instead.

All the stores and restaurants in T4 will also close and the shuttle bus service connecting to T3 will be suspended until operations in T4 resume.

The closure of T4 will enable Changi Airport Group (CAG) and its airport partners to save on running costs such as utilities and cleaning. It also follows the suspension of operations in T2.

Skytrain services in the airport have also been reduced. Visitors and staff can continue to use the MRT link bridge between T3 and T2, and the link bridges leading to Jewel Changi Airport (Jewel).

Taxi stands at T1 and T3 will be consolidated, with one serving each terminal. On the airside, several finger piers in T1 and T3 will not be used for flights until demand returns.

F&B outlets at Changi Airport are currently only open for takeaways, and essential services such as pharmacies continue to serve airport staff and the public in the airport’s public areas, including Jewel. The list of operating outlets can be found on Changi Airport’s website.

In April 2020, Changi Airport handled 25,200 passenger movements and 3,870 aircraft movements. Airfreight throughput for the month stood at 96,500 tonnes.
