Engineering and expansion works at Changi Airport Terminal 2 have been completed.
Changi Airport commences operations in the northern wing of Terminal 2 (T2) today after three and a half years of engineering works to extend the life of critical systems, and expansion works to bring Changi’s overall capacity to 90 million passengers per annum (mppa). T2’s handling capacity has increased by five mppa to 28 mppa.
This boost in capacity is timely as air travel in Changi Airport continues to recover. Passenger traffic at Changi Airport for August 2023 was about 87% of pre-Covid levels. The southern wing of T2 was reopened in May 2022 (arrivals) and October 2022 (departures) to provide capacity to serve an increasing number of passengers following the easing of international border restrictions earlier in the year.
While a number of shops and dining options, as well as facilities and amenities are already open, passengers can look forward to the full suite of T2 attractions, stores and restaurants as these are launched progressively in the coming weeks. The full reopening of T2 will be celebrated with an event in early November 2023.
