If you ask any seasoned traveller that has had the privilege to experience this airport, it will be at the top of everyone’s list for the airport to have a layover in.  It’s hard not to see why when among the amenities is a shower and spa!  Nothing takes the kilometres of travel off like a little pampering.  There is also a rooftop pool for a refreshing dip. If you are after some peace and quiet, there is a butterfly garden, cactus garden, and a sunflower garden.  There are also free tours of Singapore from the airport or a movie cinema if you just want to relax and watch a film.
