New one-stop security arrangement between some European airports and Singapore

There will be less hassle for travellers on flights from Europe and Singapore connecting through some European airports and Changi Airport with the implementation of a one-stop security (OSS) arrangement from Tuesday. According to the EC, the OSS arrangement excludes passengers, baggage and cargo from further security controls when transferring at EU airports. Other countries that benefit from the OSS include the US and Canada, according to the Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport of European Commission. Singapore’s Ministry of Transport and EC DG-MOVE said the OSS arrangement will improve transfer connections made by passengers at the airports and increase the efficiency of airline and airport operations. <br/>
