WHICH AIRPORT?
When flying privately into Singapore, there are two excellent airport options to consider. Seletar Airport, located in the northeastern part of the country, is just 20 minutes away from the city centre and offers exceptional facilities for private aviation. Additionally, Singapore's major airline airport, Changi Airport (WSSS), renowned for its world-class infrastructure and services, is also available for private jet operators.
Seletar Airport remains a preferred choice for many private jet operators due to its proximity to the city centre. However, for those who prefer to use Changi Airport, it is important to note that it offers a comprehensive range of services and facilities for private aviation as well.
Flight procedures have been established in preparation for Singapore's upcoming Grand Prix race. To ensure smooth operations and safety during the event, airports in Singapore, including Changi Airport, will implement slot control. This means that specific time slots will be allocated for aircraft arrivals and departures to manage the increased air traffic. Private jet operators planning to fly to Singapore during the Grand Prix race should be aware of these procedures and adhere to the designated slots to avoid delays or disruptions and ensure a seamless travel experience.
