Singapore's 3rd Airport Terminal Addition Whole terminal tour of the Singapore Airport Terminal 3, (including transit areas) on November 19, 2007 before the Jan 2008 opening.
- Into a whole interesting world!
- theres 11 check in rows in total
- and lots of them!
- for removing a bubblewrap? a fine city indeed! Tear it off! tear it off!
- which occupants have yet to mount, evolve and be delivered over...
- and here we are at the transit holding area
- me spy an aerobridge with my little eye!
- rawwrr I am a mean sliver sjytrain!
- and leads on throughout the whole ground floor rapid baggage collection
- the bulk baggage exit, pet elephants, donkeys and surfboards all come out through here!
- not to mention F&B outlets
- the usual prohibited items on flight
- much better!
- the check in booth area on level 2nd (departures)
- not to mention 7 floors in height and almost 63 football fields in area!
- here we have the same ICA biometric passport scanner gantries for passport and access card holders.
- here's the koi pond area, minus the kois who yet to move in that is!
- some of the fancy floorwork around the area
- aka the "OMG why isn't my flight here yet?" - place
- note the perimeter unfinished surroundings
- ooo more seats!
- few of the many escalators disguised as glass paneling, there 51 of them in total in T3
- its not everyday where u can see "welcome" craved in so many languages...
- a walk along the meeting point lane
- view of Terminal 3 across the roads from Terminal 2
- many of the glass lifts we see in littered all round T3
- T3 sits at a whooping 380,000 sqm, dwarfing both T1 and T2
- and we still have not checked in yet!
- (please remove cover) the passport scanning machines wants out!
- this area is kept cool in the afternoon with lots of sun visors
- not to mention trees which grow right off the floor!
- here we have our demo A340 docked for sizing up! (see how low the aerogate have to go down)
- but come to think about it, this place is going to be quite cramped if three A380 are to be boarded at full capacity
- snappy
- it looks like an extension of the top panels
- ...on a wall spanning 300m in length!
- lined along the arrival stretch as also many stores
- besides taking the underpass, you can also catch the T2-T3 skytrain service as well
- theres a total of 36 of them in total! (note the space age light slit)
- the departure entrance is similar to that of T2, with a 2nd level fly-over entrance for direct vehicular alighting
- ok enough done with the scale model, lets get on with the 1:1 scale...
- our good ol' ICA in proud glory!
- the children ate the fishes!
- natural shade to go with natural lighting! perfect!
- more transit area shots
- contrary to our moment of zen...
- snappy!
- for ya retro tetris lovers out there, the ultimate tetris board in Singapore!!
- some adorable dolphin figure cravings on the walls
- many of the few "look no hands" water fountains at every one of the 56 toilets in T3
