SINGAPORE, 19 October 2010 – Changi Airport Group will welcome Philippines’ Airphil Express and Malaysia’s Berjaya Air to the Changi family of airlines in the next two weeks. Airphil Express and Berjaya Air are the sixth and seventh new airline to commence operations to Changi this year.

From 1 December 2010, it will mount 14 weekly flights between Singapore and Cebu. Airphil will join five other carriers currently flying to the Philippines.
From 1 November 2010, Berjaya will operate scheduled flights at the Budget Terminal1. The services will start with ten flights a week to Tioman in Malaysia, operating on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. From March 2011 after the monsoon season, the Malaysian carrier will increase frequencies to 28 weekly flights, 14 each to the resort islands of Tioman and Redang. Both islands are new links for Changi. The details of the new flights are as follows:
=======================================
То есть теперь на Тиоман или Реданг нужно летать не с местного аэропорта Селетер, а из Чанги (бюджетный терминал).
Также теперь там базируется и лоукост из Филиппин AirPhil express (До Манилы или Себу).. Интересно, что там же и Cebu Pacific с теми же маршрутами (конкуренция!).
