  • SIN T2 Lounges Undergoing Renovation

    The SilverKris Lounge in Terminal 2 Changi Airport will be renovated from May 2011

    The lounge facilities in Terminal 2 Changi Airport will be upgraded from May 2011 to September 2011; and when completed, the SilverKris lounge at Terminal 2 will have new First and Business Class areas.
    There will be 126 and 246 seats in the First and Business Class area of the SilverKris Lounge respectively.

    Both sections come with their own dining areas, food service counters, bars, television areas, showers and washrooms as well as nursing rooms. The walls and flooring will be adorned in rich timber and marble.

    The entire lounge will be WiFi-enabled, allowing you to surf the internet from wherever you are seated. Internet workstations will also be available for use and an extensive range of newspapers and magazines will continue to be on hand.

    The refurbished Terminal 2 SilverKris Lounge promises to provide an inviting environment for Singapore Airlines Suites, First and Business Class customers as well as PPS Club members to rest or work before boarding their flight.

    A KrisFlyer Gold lounge will be a new addition, welcoming KrisFlyer Elite Gold members and Star Alliance Gold members traveling on Economy Class who currently use the SATS Premium lounge in Terminal 2.

    In order to minimise disruption to our members, the SilverKris Lounge will remain operational throughout the renovation period. In order to do so, upgrading works would have to be carried out in phases.

    In the first phase, the First Class section will be converted into an interim common lounge for PPS Club members and Singapore Airlines customers traveling in the premium cabins, while work is carried out to refurbish the Business Class section and convert part of it into a new KrisFlyer Gold Lounge.

    The First Class section will be upgraded once renovation works in the Business Class section and new KrisFlyer Gold Lounge is completed, and we will update our members again on the next phase of renovation.

    We seek your kind understanding and apologise for the inconvenience this may cause.

    Not before time. The J lounge has become particularly ratty around the edges.

      It shouldn't have taken them this long to address this. Good news indeed.

        Not really good news for me. A key element (for me) of the t2 skl's is likely to go away.

                      Is it too much to ask for toilet facilities not to be separated from the shower stalls? I dislike this feature of SIN SKLs.

                          I haven't been to T2 SKL in a LONG time! But my memory of it has always been positive, though one complaint I had was the lighting is a bit on the soft side. It would be great to have some windows or some other form of natural lighting, even if filtered.

                            I hope they keep the manned bar in the J lounge.

                              Hang on, did you guys see the small print? The lounge size will be reduced so that a new Krisflyer Gold lounge can be accommodated in the same space. So, come September, *Gs travelling in Y will no longer be using the SATS lounge

                              If the new T2 KFG lounge is anything like the T3 KFG lounge, then that means no showers... This was the one benefit of the T2 SATS lounge (which we all used for the shower even when connecting from T3), and that will make travelling long haul Y on SQ via SIN a lot less pleasant than it used to be (granted, it's been a long time since I last travelled long haul Y )
