As a frequent traveller, the airport is usually not a memorable part of the journey. If you agree, then you should book a flight to Singapore and visit Changi Airport, also known as the "Best Airport in the World" by the 2017 Skytrax World Airport Awards for five consecutive years.

If you enjoy playing games, you will love Changi's entertainment deck complete with Xbox Kinect room that offers sports experience based on your movements and actions, including your facial expressions and voice.

The Social Tree is nine-meter tall interactive installation where you can share and store your photo memories of Changi and lets you be part of the airport's history for decades to come.
