Yes, I was one of them posting Instagram stories “documenting” the fact that I WAS THERE or more like, complaining about the crowd. (Haha)
Pics or it didn’t happen, right?

Shake Shack
Surprisingly, the queue for Shake Shack wasn’t as long as the queue for A&W but I did notice that their store is way bigger too. It probably seems less overwhelming at Shake Shack because they’ve got way more seats than A&W.
The typical waiting time on a weekend is about one to two hours long.

Here comes the question of the year:
(Please don’t rain on my parade, LET ME LIVE)
Before I made a trip down to Jewel, I wondered to myself,
“Why were we willing to spend so much to build Jewel?”
We have already been crowned the best airport in the world for 6 consecutive years. Why do we still need to add more jewels to our crown? (Editor’s note: I’m letting this slide…)
Our community quickly chimed in with their views, supported with statistics, and a lot of them pointed out that Jewel is extremely important to Singapore’s tourism sector.
It was also arguably the best publicity move by the Changi Airport Group as no amount of money could have brought this amount of global and media attention to Changi Airport.
Continue reading what the Community have shared
How To Get To Jewel Changi Airport?
You might ask where exactly is Jewel? (Especially if you’re ride-hailing.)
Address: 78 Airport Blvd, Singapore 819666
But if you’re heading there via public transport, here are your options:
- By MRT: Changi Airport Station (CG2)
- By Bus: 24, 27, 34, 36, 53, 110 and 858
(Alight at Terminal 1 and there will be signs to guide you to Jewel)
Or if you’re intending to drive there, you gotta know Jewel’s insane parking charges:
| Motor Vehicles (including Vans) | Motorcycles & Scooters |
|---|---|
| Short-term Parking (B2M and B2) First 90 mins: S$0.04/min Subsequent 30 mins or part thereof: S$5/30mins | S$1.30/day (7:00am to 6:59am next day) |
| General Parking (B3 to B5) S$0.04/min |
It doesn’t matter what you have to say about the overcrowded shopping mall, Jewel is really Singapore in all her upgraded and atas glory.
Trust me, your usual go-to Hot Tomato or Bengawan Solo looks nothing like the store-fronts you are familiar with.
Which store’s revamp do you like the most? Share it with me! For me, it’s Bengawan Solo!
