Singapore Wants to Make Its Airport Pandemic Proof
- Giant new terminal at airport will be operational by mid-2030s
- Singapore seeks aviation edge over still restricted Hong Kong
Singapore will start work on a fifth terminal at Changi Airport -- regularly voted among the world’s best -- with a revised design that allows it to adjust capacity during a pandemic.
The move comes as the city-state works to cement its place as Asia’s primary aviation hub, with rival Hong Kong still imposing Covid quarantines and other border restrictions.
