It is not for nothing that a small state in Southeast Asia is called the country of the future - even the Singapore airport is built in full compliance not only with international standards for passenger transportation, but also in the spirit of some fantastic novel about how our planet will look in decades.
Russian tourists can see man-made wonders by purchasing a ticket for a direct flight Moscow - Singapore from Singapore Airlines, which operates flights from Domodedovo several times a week. You will have to spend about 10 hours in the air, but Singaporeans guarantee special comfort - their air carrier has a reputation as one of the best on the planet.
Singapore International Airport
The only airport in Singapore was named the best in the world by Skytrax in 2015, and therefore it will seem like only a pleasant part of the journey to an exotic southern country. The air harbor is located 17 km from the Marina Bay area, and the easiest and fastest way to get to the city is considered to be a metro transfer. The underground station is located between Terminals 2 and 3.
Bus aficionados can take advantage of the free city bus ride between the airport and Changi Business Park. The service is provided on weekdays, and there are 9 stops along the route.
Taxis are available in the arrivals halls and are reasonably priced in Singapore.
