Some Saturday Outings - Changi Airport

I find that our airport is more than just a place for departures and arrivals. When a local family with kids has got nothing to do or don't know where to go, they sometimes go to the airport to past time.

And our airport management had done a good job at making the shops and eateries all accessible to non-travellers. Thus, on weekends, you see a lot of kids and families hanging out at the viewing galleries, long queues outside Swensen's, kids playing at T3's indoor playground etc.

We were no diff. On cloudy days, we go there. And Ning always managed to find new friends to play with, especially outside T3's MacDonald's. And we can stay there for a few hours.

Since last June, I started to take on an additional customer service training assignment at the airport. And I found a new place. An outdoor playground and a stall selling cheap Zhi Char fare. They're located inside the Airport Recreational Club and the way to it is almost like a maze. When I showed WF, he was like... how on earth can a club be hidden thro' this door? Well, this club has got 2 badminton courts, a nice big gym overlooking the runway, jackpot room and karaoke lounge. Now you know its not all work and no play for the airport staff.
