CHANGI Airport.......

____________________
We left Manila for
Singapore 5am Saturday.Since we took Cebu Pacific, the terminal is the new one in Andrews Avenue. I was so excited to see it.To my disappointment,the lobby is small and plain and dark. Maybe they are saving on electricity.......or is it part of the facade, to emphasize the beams? Whatever it is, it was way below my expectations. It's close to a deserted building and it lacks drama.....
But it was clear day. As we heed south, a storm is a approaching Northern Luzon. Calm before the storm they say.
____________________



We were in Changi Airport after 3.5 hours. We docked in the budget terminal. I was shocked. I forgot that we were on a budget airline. But the airport is still better compared to Manila. I took several photos but the authorities are quick tell me taking pictures in certain areas is prohibited so I had to erase them. I managed to get a few on our way back.Pasaway.





I noticed many Indians working the airport.Their english is strange but I guess they are doing a fine job. Everything is organized. We took the bus (free) to the new Terminal (3) where our friends car is parked. Kala nila naka Singapore Airlines kami.kkk. . The airport complex is huge.

We went through mazes and corridors.........




Then came the big one>>>>>>Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3.

....from left---TERESA, Cristy and Alma---our friend our very kind host in Singapore.













The airport is a microcosm of Singapore itself, modernity blended in nature.
Teresa, who has been to Hongkong last year said that Changi is better than Chek Lap Kok Airport......









Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Singapore. It's the start of a 3-day adventure of Antonio, the 27 year old travel-outside-the-Philippines virgin. Welcome aboard!!!

    Wow, have a good time!

    Changi is known to be one of the biggest and most beautiful airports in the world. I'm looking forward to going to Singapore next summer, as soon as I finish getting that darn passport.

    The airport sure look beautiful. A bit surprised some areas are off limit for camera. Security reason? Pity I didn't have the chance to use the airport. I visited Singapore by crossing the causeway from Johor Bahru.

    By the way, I don't own a ship, just that I work in a shipping company :)

    now that you've been devirginated with travel, i propose a toast!

    enjoy changi while it lasts... hongkokng is building a newer terminal that will blow changi away...

    the beijing airport is much bigger and more architecturally captivationg but shopping and leisure in changi is truly unbeatable!

    vanny---easy pala for you to go there, visit lang. You don't have to force yourself to work there. But be careful, when you get there, you mi8ght be seduced by the city and have second thoughts of staying.

    spoolartist. ---Talaga kuya Loven. Talagang wala sila magawa sa pera nila no? With us, we don't have much to start with. The travel made me realize a lot of things

    Josh---bitin talaga pag 1 day lang. Samin nga 3 days bitin pa...
