Only in Singapore that we treat airports like shopping malls, revision hub and entertainment stop.

I never understood the local fascination with going to the airport as just a destination.

Changi is not an airport; it's a shopping mall with runways and immigration counters.

Ikea is because of the cheap ice cream, hot dogs and childcare! The airport is pretty cool though right?

As the Serangoon Bus Interchange is in the basement of NEX it could be a day out.
