You Cannot Resist The Force @ Changi Airport

Resist, You Cannot. The Star Wars Force has landed at Singapore Changi Airport Terminals 2 and 3!

Whether you are arriving at Changi Airport or departing from it, stop by for some intergalactic experience. In anticipation of the much-awaited new Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie, two of the films series’ iconic starfighters have landed in Singapore for the first time.

Be One With The Force

From 13 November to 5 January, airport visitors can don on Star Wars costumes and take the hot seat behind the controls in the cockpit of a life-sized Star Wars X-Wing Fighter (pictured above) at Terminal 3 (T3) Departure Hall.
