Singapore Airlines (SIA) has announced a major upgrade to the airline's SilverKris and KrisFlyer Gold lounges at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 2, with a S$45 million investment aimed at enhancing the customer experience. The renovations, set to begin on 15 April 2025, will take place in phases and are expected to be completed by mid-2027.
Once complete, the redesigned lounges will offer 50% more space and seating capacity. Key upgrades will include enhanced facilities, signature design elements from SIA’s flagship lounges at Terminal 3, and a wider selection of food and beverage options.
Mr Yeoh Phee Teik, Senior Vice President of Customer Experience at Singapore Airlines, commented: “This significant investment underscores Singapore Airlines’ unwavering commitment to elevating the end-to-end travel experience for our customers. Building on the success of our Terminal 3 lounges, we are extending our signature hospitality and thoughtfully curated offerings to Terminal 2. This upgrade reaffirms our continued dedication to providing a seamless, world-class experience that meets the high expectations of our discerning customers.”
Key features of the upgrades include:
First Class SilverKris Lounge: The new lounge will feature a more spacious area with higher ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an expanded capacity. A renovated bar will offer a premium experience with barista services in the morning. Live cooking stations will serve a variety of popular Singaporean, Asian, and Western dishes, while the self-service buffet will mirror the offerings available at the Terminal 3 SilverKris Lounge.
Business Class SilverKris Lounge: Expanding by 30%, the Business Class lounge will offer more space and comfort, including a quiet rest area with recliners, and a redesigned living room area with diverse seating options such as wingback chairs, sofas, and productivity pods. The self-service buffet will feature both Asian and Western cuisines, while a new full-service bar will serve barista-made coffee in the morning and signature cocktails in the evening.
KrisFlyer Gold Lounge: The KrisFlyer Gold Lounge will double its capacity and offer a range of seating options, including armchairs, workstations, and dining seats. New amenities will include in-lounge restrooms and shower suites, allowing customers to freshen up before their flights.
To minimise disruption, the renovations will occur in phases. The construction of the new First Class SilverKris Lounge is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2025. The new Business Class SilverKris Lounge will begin construction in the fourth quarter of 2025, with the KrisFlyer Gold Lounge set for renovation in the first half of 2026.
