The new Changi Airport Terminal 4 opening later this year is more than just an airport terminal, it is a manifestation of innovative technology, immersive art, and boutique design incorporating local flavour.
Fast and Seamless Travel (FAST) is the heart of the new terminal, which for passengers means that every process from check-in to boarding will be automated, with end-to-end self-service options to speed up the departure process. The FAST journey incorporates Automated Check-In Kiosks, Automated Bag-Drop, Automated Immigration Gates, and Automated Boarding Gates. Manual identity checks, as conducted in current terminals, will be done away with at T4 with the introduction of state-of-the-art facial recognition technology at key touch points to authenticate each passenger’s identity. The user interface of these new platforms are easy to understand and use, and ensures higher efficiency and productivity.
