Location
The Changi Lounge is located at Level 1 of the Jewel complex, which is directly connected to Terminal 1.
If the Jewel is new to you, check out our first look from the opening weekend in April 2019.
From the T1 departures level (Jewel drop off), you’ll need to go down one level to reach the Changi Lounge. From T1 arrivals you are already on the correct floor and the Changi Lounge is only short walk into the complex.
The Early Check-in Lounge, where you can check in for your flight for certain airlines many hours (and in some cases even days) before your departure time, is directly opposite the Changi Lounge.
This is ideal because for many access schemes you will need a valid boarding pass to use the lounge. Click here to find out if your airline offers Early Check-in at Changi.
If you are arriving from T3 or T2 you will need to take the link bridge to Jewel then follow the signs for the Changi Lounge. If you are arriving from T4 you will first need to get the shuttle bus to T2, then take the link bridge.
Lounge access – paid
With the Changi Lounge being located in the land-side Jewel complex in the public area of the airport, it is not used as a contract lounge for Business or First Class passengers departing on any specific airline.
Instead you can access the lounge either through direct payment (advance booking or walk-up is permitted), or using a lounge access membership programme.
In all cases if you access by paying the lounge directly, you do not have to be travelling on a flight to or from the airport and will be able to use the lounge for any 3-hour period of your choice.
Access rates are as follows:
| 3 hours (without shower) |
3 hours (including shower) |
|
| Adult | S$38 | S$50 |
| Child (age 3-12) | S$27 | S$39 |
| Time extension | S$10/hr | |
| Add-on shower | S$12 | n/a |
Children aged 2 and below are admitted free.
Lounge access – membership
DragonPass members can use the lounge at any time of day, before or after their flight, with a valid same-day inbound or outbound boarding pass. For example in this case you could visit in the morning, even though your flight is departing in the evening.
Most of our readers will be using Priority Pass for access, like we did for this review. In this case you must be travelling on a flight departing from Changi Airport in the next four hours (for example, for a 3.45pm departure access is available from 11.45am).
Alternatively you can use a Priority Pass visit to access the lounge after a flight arriving into Changi Airport at any time on the same calendar day. Remember to keep hold of your inbound boarding pass.
You are limited to 3 hours of lounge access whether you are using the lounge before or after departure. Access includes use of the shower facilities. The same rules apply (as for Priority Pass) if you are using LoungeKey or Lounge Club to visit the Changi Lounge.
