Singapore Airlines invests $36.8m in lounge upgrades

After an extensive market research and customer feedback, Singapore Airlines has committed $36.8m to upgrade its SilverKris, and Krisflyer Gold Lounges at Changi Airport’s Terminal 3. The lounges opened in 2008 when Terminal 3 started operations, and the facelift will create an overall 30% increase in space and customer capacity. SIA engaged US hospitality designers Hirsch Bedner Associates. The project will be carried out in four phases beginning August 2019 and going through mid-2021. The revamp comes timely as competition for high-yield passengers intensifies in the region. <br/>
