Singapore Airlines (SIA) has unveiled its all-new flagship SilverKris and KrisFlyer Gold lounges at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3, following a S$50 million (£28.9 million) re-design, upgrade and expansion project. This will further enhance the on-ground customer experience at the airline’s main hub and comes as the demand for international air travel from and through Singapore takes off once again.
The Private Room, the First-Class section of the SilverKris Lounge, the Business Class section of the SilverKris Lounge and the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge can collectively accommodate around 1,150 customers within their 6,100 m², translating to 30% more seats and space. This also doubles the capacity that was available during the pandemic while the upgrading works were going on.
The airline has created a sanctuary that has been thoughtfully designed to enhance the comfort and convenience of diverse groups of travellers and meet their evolving needs in the coming years. Customers will be able to enjoy world-class products and services, as well as enticing food and beverage options, around the clock at the lounges before their flight.
Mr Goh Choon Phong, Chief Executive Officer, Singapore Airlines, said: “Extensive customer engagement and research have gone into the design of the new SilverKris and KrisFlyer Gold lounges. Customers will enjoy thoughtfully curated product offerings and experience the signature Singapore Airlines hospitality, all within a comfortable and restful environment, ensuring that they are refreshed and ready for their journey. Opening these lounges at this time signals our commitment to SIA’s premium brand and growth strategy. It reinforces our position as Changi Airport’s anchor airline and reflects our confidence in Singapore’s future as a pre-eminent global air hub.”
