Changi Airport Group (CAG) has commenced redevelopment works on the former Commercially Important Persons (CIP) terminal site to create a new premium travel and lifestyle destination, according to a company statement.
The development, located at the southern end of Terminal 2, will feature an upgraded private terminal and a new amenities cluster linked to the existing Hub & Spoke, and is expected to be completed by mid-2027.
CAG said the new private terminal will be jointly operated with Plaza Premium Group (PPG), offering a personalised end-to-end experience for premium travellers.
“Some of today’s travellers seek more than just a comfortable place to spend time before their flight …. they are after a personalised premium experience,” said CAG Senior Vice President for Airport Operations Development and Airport Operations Services, Ang Siew Min, in the statement.
“CAG is meeting this demand with an upgraded private terminal that delivers an exceptional experience. In addition, a curated selection of dining and wellness offerings awaits just steps from the private terminal, further enriching the suite of options available to our passengers,” he said.
According to the statement, the terminal will include a deluxe lounge, bar, private suites and bespoke dining facilities, alongside a high-end event space designed for private gatherings and larger groups.
PPG said the collaboration will combine its global expertise in airport hospitality with Changi Airport’s operational capabilities.
“As we join hands with CAG on the development and operations of this pioneering private terminal, PPG is committed to delivering a consistently elevated end-to-end experience for premium travellers at Changi Airport,” said PPG Chief Transformation Officer Mei Mei Song.
“By bringing together our global expertise in airport hospitality with Changi’s renowned operational excellence, we will offer a new benchmark in personalised, seamless and bespoke services for our discerning guests,” she added./LOCCO
