In a significant update for travellers, Thai Airways is set to relocate its Singapore operations from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2 at Changi Airport on February 18. This shift promises enhanced facilities and lounge access, adding comfort for those on the busy Bangkok-Singapore route.

For decades, Thai Airways has been a fixture at Terminal 1, operating 35 weekly flights, including five daily services to Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport. The move to Terminal 2 aligns Thai Airways with fellow Star Alliance members such as Lufthansa and ANA, in Changi's largest terminal, which recently underwent extensive renovations to improve passenger services.

Passengers will benefit from the refreshed lounge experience at Terminal 2. While the airline's Terminal 1 lounge remained closed post-Covid, T2 offers access to Singapore Airlines’ KrisFlyer Gold Lounge and SilverKris Business Class Lounge. Though not on par with the cutting-edge facilities in Terminal 3, they are accessible through a quick SkyTrain ride.

Business Class passengers can unwind in the SilverKris Business Lounge, while Star Alliance Gold members in Economy or Premium Economy can access the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge. Additionally, Priority Pass holders can enjoy unique dining and spa redemption options at T2, including discounts at Asian Street Kitchen.

The refurbished Terminal 2 now handles 130 daily flights, serving 28 million passengers annually. With expanded space, new dining choices, and a nature-inspired design, the updated terminal aims to elevate the travel experience, making it a bustling hub within Changi.
