Asia is set for a travel boom, and countries in the region are gearing up to exploit this surge in demand.
Singapore’s Changi Airport on Wednesday broke ground on its fifth terminal, which is expected to be operational in the mid-2030s.
The new terminal, on a plot of land 1,080 hectares large, will almost double the size of Changi Airport’s existing area.
This will enable the airport to handle 140 million passengers per year from its current capacity of 90 million passengers. Changi, which was most recently awarded Skytrax’s “World’s Best Airport” in 2025 for the 13th time, welcomed 67.7 million passengers in 2024. – CNBC
