And the Cathay Pacific Skyview Lounge in Changi, Singapore

Lounge Review – Cathay Pacific Skyview Lounge Changi Airport Singapore

Verdict - I was using this lounge between a flight from Perth to Jakarta, Indonesia. The lounge had a very open feel to it, the food selection for breakfast had several options, but not sure if it was because it was so early in the morning (6am) the ambience seemed to be lacking a bit. Still a pleasant place to spend some time between flights and to freshen up.

Entrance – Departure Transit Lounge, Terminal 1, Level 2

Showers and toilets - Yes several toilets for male and female and 3 showers, because the lounge was sparsely filled there was no wait to use the showers.

Computers and Wifi - There was an area available for computers but only two screens seemed to be provided for those without their own equipment.

Food - Decent selection of hot dishes with some chicken congee with condiments, some sausages, omelettes, pancakes and noodles and several pre-prepared sandwiches and pastries and also bread available to make toast with toppings.

Beverages - These were a little lacking, basic supply of about 4 spirits and an aperitif and two different beers in a fridge with a selection of white and red wines as well. Coffee making facilities and soft drink dispensers were also available.

Entertainment - There were a decent selection of newspapers and magazines available together with a couple of tvs with news on them.

Ambience - The lounge had a very open feel as you could see out into the airport after going up the escalators to enter the lounge. While I was there it was mostly dark before sunrise but as the sun came up the view outside started to reveal itself, so if you like a view of planes moving around that’s an interesting point of the lounge. But being so early few people were in the lounge, the upper deck part of it with extra seating was closed, so the ambience was a bit lacking at this time anyway.

Staff - The staff didn’t seem overly welcoming, no one came to clear up plates that obviously weren’t being used and no particular smiles or welcomes were forthcoming from the staff as they moved around.

Airlines serviced - Cathay Pacific and One World alliance airlines, Skyteam alliance airlines, Priority Pass members and others.
