Changi Airport temporarily suspends T4 operations

This will enable the group and airport partners to save on running costs.

Changi Airport’s Terminal 4 (T4) operations will be temporarily suspended starting 16 May in view of the small number of flights in the terminal, according to a press release.

The move is said to enable Changi Airport Group (CAG) and its airport partners to continue to save on running costs, such as utilities and cleaning, and optimise resources due to sharp decline in flight movements.

Airlines based in T4 will operate on Terminals 1 (T1) or 3 (T3) instead. Stores and restaurants in the terminal will also be closed and the shuttle bus service connecting to T3 will be temporarily suspended.

Meanwhile, skytrain services in the airport have also been reduced due to the low demand. However, visitors and staff can continue to use the MRT link bridge between T3 and T2, as well as the link bridges leading to Jewel Changi Airport (Jewel).

Taxi stands at T1 and T3 will also 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.

During the current circuit breaker period, food and beverage (F&B) outlets at the airport are open for takeaways, and essential services such as pharmacies in the airport’s public areas.
