Singapore Changi airport’s new Terminal 4 opened yesterday, with Cathay Pacific and Korean Air the first two airlines to lead a group of seven which are due to move their operations to T4 over the coming fortnight.
In light of the magnificent retail and dining profile of the new terminal, today’s Air4casts bulletin examines the immediate Terminal 4 outlook alongside the traffic, nationality and route profiles which are driving Changi’s vibrant international performance. With double-digit growth on Chinese routes again announced by the airport, this time for September, the future looks especially bright for both the new Terminal 4 and the airport as a whole. The reality of what is happening at Changi flies in the face of the negative growth forecasts currently circulating in Travel Retail.
