The increased passenger traffic was caused by an increase in air travel between Singapore and all regions except America. Passenger movements to and from Hong Kong, India, Indonesia and Japan registered double-digit increases. Thailand and China traffic registered declines.

In April, Uzbekistan Airways launched direct air links to Central Asia. HY operates a twice-weekly circular routing service between Tashkent and Singapore. Spring Airlines also launched thrice-weekly Shanghai-Singapore service becoming the first low-cost carrier to operate this route. On 21 April, AirAsia launched a four-times weekly service to Kota Bahru and on 22 April, thrice weekly service to Kuala Terengganu.

On the F&B front, Kaffe & Toast opened its second halal outlet at Terminal 2 Arrival Hall while TWG Tea opened its second tea boutique in Terminal 1 Departure Transit Lounge.

 

As at 1 May 2014, more than 100 airlines operate at Changi Airport connecting Singapore to 270 cities in some 60 countries and territories worldwide. There are 6,600 scheduled flights at Changi.
