T3 for SIA only

SIA, aka Singapore Airlines, will be the first carrier to operate from Changi Airport Terminal 3 when it opens for operations on Wednesday, 9 Jan 2008. T3 Operations will start close to noon, with SQ 001 being the first flight to arrive at the new terminal. SQ 318, bound for London, will be the first flight to depart from Terminal 3 at 12.50pm. Terminal 3 check-in counters will be operational from 9am. With effect from 9 January 2008, SIA will operate from both Terminals 2 and 3.

With the expansion of services, customers departing from Changi Airport will check in at Terminal 2 or 3 for their flights, depending on their destination. Flights may arrive at either Terminal 2 or 3, and information on the arrival terminal will be available at least two hours before the estimated arrival time. According Travel Agents passengers usually worry more about their departure terminal than the arrival terminal. SIA says the information on which terminal its flights will arrive at will depend on the Airplane "parking lots" available. Singapore Airlines, SIA, says it is not efficient to fix the arrival terminal for the planes because it can result in the towing of planes between Terminals 2 and 3.
