Following the suspension of operations in Terminal 2, Changi Airport’s terminal operations will be consolidated further to optimise resources in tandem with the sharp decline in flight movements because of the global Covid-19 pandemic. This move will enable Changi Airport Group and its airport partners to continue to save on running costs such as utilities and cleaning.
Changi Airport Group (CAG) announced today that in view of the steep decline in passenger traffic and the likelihood that air travel demand will not return to pre-Covid-19 levels in the near term, terminal operations at Changi Airport will be consolidated.
Changi Airport Group’s (CAG) philanthropic arm, Changi Foundation, has donated 650 litres of a self-disinfecting coating to all 16 town councils in Singapore. This coating, named sdst, has been applied on frequently-touched surfaces in Changi Airport. It has now been used on about 1.5 million lift buttons in Singapore’s 26,000 HDB lifts.
Retail, food & beverage (F&B) and service concessionaires at Changi Airport will receive rental assistance under the Singapore Budget 2020 Stabilisation and Support Package (SSP) for the aviation sector.
Changi Airport is an important gateway connecting Singapore to the world, facilitating the movement of people and goods. Hence, it is vital for Changi Airport to remain operational at all times, even with the evolving COVID-19 situation worldwide.
