🏆 Recognition at India’s Best Awards 2025

The honour was announced during the 14th edition of India’s Best Awards, which celebrate excellence across global travel and hospitality. Winners are selected through an extensive online voting process. It involves international readers. This makes the rankings a direct measure of traveller satisfaction rather than expert-only assessment.

Changi Airport’s top position underscores its consistent ability to meet—and exceed—expectations of global passengers across age groups and travel purposes.

🌿 Passenger Experience Beyond Transit

Changi has long redefined what an airport can be. Instead of functioning solely as a transit point, it offers a destination-like experience. Sky-lit terminals, expansive indoor gardens, and open architectural layouts create a sense of calm and spaciousness.

Signature attractions include the world’s tallest indoor waterfall (Rain Vortex), butterfly gardens, and themed installations. Cultural showcases transform long layovers into enjoyable interludes. They encourage passengers to explore rather than simply wait.

🛍️ Facilities, Comfort, and Global Benchmarks

The airport offers a wide range of dining and retail options, blending Singaporean cuisine with global brands. Facilities such as transit hotels, sleeping pods, wellness zones, and quiet rest areas cater especially to long-haul travellers.

Operational strengths—including clear terminal navigation, efficient immigration and security processes, and smooth passenger flow—minimise delays and stress. Travel+Leisure noted that modern airports increasingly shape travel memories. Changi sets a global benchmark by integrating efficiency, comfort, design, and innovation seamlessly.
