Jetstar begins operations at Changi Airport T4; terminal spruced up with new offerings

The Jetstar group of airlines started operating from Changi Airport’s Terminal 4 on Wednesday, after months of negotiations over its relocation from Terminal 1. Jetstar Asia, which operates from Singapore to destinations in Australia and South-east Asia, had its first inbound flight arrive at T4 from Manila at 12.40am, while its first outbound flight departed from the same terminal for Manila at 6.15am. Jetstar Asia passenger Adeline Lim, 51, said the automated check-in at T4 was “a breeze”, and transit passengers should not face any issues moving between T4 and the other terminals. T4 is the only one among the four terminals at Changi that is not connected to the complimentary Skytrain service. Jetstar Airways, which is based in Australia, was slated to have its first flight from T4 departing for Melbourne at 10.10pm on Wednesday. Jetstar and Changi Airport Group (CAG) said in a statement that passengers aboard the 25 Jetstar services operating from T4 on Wednesday would be given tote bags and luggage tags to mark the occasion. By the end of the day, Jetstar would have served nearly 4,000 passengers.<br/>
