    NEWS RELEASE SCOOT TO RE-LOCATE FROM TERMINAL 2 TO TERMINAL 1 AT SINGAPORE CHANGI AIRPORT ✓ The re-location is scheduled for the last quarter of 2019. ✓ The move will support Scoot’s growth plans and enhance customer experience. Singapore, 15 November 2018 – Scoot will be moving its operations from Terminal 2 (T2) to Terminal 1 (T1) of Singapore Changi Airport in the last quarter of 2019. The shift to T1 will facilitate Scoot’s growth plans and bring an enhanced experience to its customers. Scoot projects double-digit annual growth over the next three years. At the same time, from a recent post-flight customer feedback survey conducted by Scoot, one key touchpoint that the airline wants to enhance is the check-in and boarding process. To better support airlines for future growth, Changi Airport has been undertaking upgrading works to expand the passenger handling capacity of T1, with the project expected to be fully completed in 2019. At the Arrival level, an all-new and expanded Meeters & Greeters Hall has welcomed travellers since April 2018. The Arrival level will be seamlessly integrated with Level 1 of Jewel Changi Airport when it opens next year. The Baggage Claim Hall is also being expanded to incorporate more baggage claim belts to serve more arriving flights. In the T1 Departure Hall, refurbishment work has just been completed. The upgraded facility features a central Fast and Seamless Travel (FAST) Zone where passengers can check in and drop off their bags at the self-service automated machines. With these upgrades and expansion works, T1 is ready to handle the increased scale of operations that Scoot’s projected growth will bring.

    Integrating the Planning of Airports and the City: The Singapore Story As a former British colony, Singapore had flourished as a trading port-of-call due to its strategic location along the shipping route between Asia and Europe. However, neither its STUDIES URBAN SYSTEMS past colonial links nor geography could guarantee its continued success in the oncoming jet age. For the newly independent government formed in 1965, there were several fundamental national priorities, such as housing, job creation, education and infrastructure. However, a strategic decision was taken to build a new commercial international airport at Changi—a hefty mega-infrastructure that carried both substantial costs and risks for a land-strapped island which already had four airports. Such a decision bore far-reaching consequences in terms of land use, transport, Story The Singapore the Planning of Airports and City: Integrating industrial planning, defence, residential and social spaces. Integrating the In this Urban Systems Study, readers will learn about the comprehensive planning that went into the development of Planning of Changi Airport, and the integrated manner in which it was carried out. It additionally explores Singapore’s experience in Airports and navigating the unique urban-planning constraints and trade- offs brought about by both civilian and military airports, and examines the systematic approach taken to capitalise the City: on airport developments to catalyse urban and economic development. The Singapore Story “ Changi Airport is our major investment to exploit our geographic location. Singapore must be prepared and ready to seize every opportunity that comes its way. Whether we have been extravagant in investing in an airport of this size and level of sophistication is a question worthy of a rhetorical rejoinder.
