Day One - Airport and on the plane!

To the Airport and gather at 7PM!

And one good thing was, we departed from Terminal 3! As you all know (or should know), it is our newest airport terminal, besides Terminal 4 which will be coming up soon as well.


But back to the point. Of course, Terminal 3 didn't magically drop down or appear at where it is today. One of the main few reasons for constructing it is actually again, as we all definitely confirm plus guarantee chop! know, is to keep our Economy going. Why?

Because, by having one more terminal, it allows us to have the luxury of more spaces so as to attract foreign airlines as well as our own, to invest and let their planes fly to Changi Airport. They are as such, China Eastern Airlines, Jet Airways, Qatar Airways, United Airlines, and of course not forgetting our own, Singapore Airlines. The third terminal also allows easier facilitation of movement of people/tourists.

By this way, it would also increase tourism to Singapore. By attracting more foreign airlines to invest, we also increase our revenue from tourism, contributing more to our economy. In order to meet the needs of incoming tourists, the terminal also provides many amenities, such as areas for transitting passengers to rest,

and restaurants like Crystal Jade for them to dine in.

More of Globalization as we go along with our trip experiences.

Before checking in, we (of course) saw many of our fellow friends' families gathering and saying our last goodbyes, before we return to Singapore again a week later. Oh Yes! Not forgetting we also received our hoodies that day!

But yup, after half an hour or so, it was time to check in.. Last few minutes with our families before we set off, and poof! Of we go to.. The waiting place before boarding the plane. But it was really fast.

The waiting place, wasn't that boring. Again, we saw points which linked to our topic, Globalization.

There was free internet access for passengers to use for business, leisure or search for neccessary information before they fly off, and allow them to have something to occupy with during their waiting time. In addition, there are actually public phones to use for free so that passengers waiting can make last minute calls. How very Singaporean-ish.

Anyway, because of Globalization, there is presence of advancedadvancing technology and increased communication which meet demands and needs of what we all need as of today. Of course, being ourselves, we are never contented with what we have but keep on striving on for better things.

Boarding time!! The flight was a whopping 10hours journey, and imagine, what kept us occupied on the plane.

If you have no idea, let us enlighten you..

Again, because of Globalization! We, can actually play games on the plane while flying in mid air!

That's a real sunrise we saw on the plane. Beautiful eh?

Besides playing games, we can also watch movies! Plus there were those plug thingys for people to just plug in their USB cables and use the Internet. AND, the best thing was, we can keep asking for food. (:

Yup, I guess that's all for our "journey" from the airport to on the plane.

Please keep reading on!!
