Singapore Airlines has announced major renovations to its SilverKris and KrisFlyer Gold lounges at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 2. The upgrades will take place over the next two years and help elevate the traveler experience. The construction began on April 15, with phased steps, and openings set for the middle of 2027. The improved lounges will offer more space and seating, enhanced food and beverage choices, and signature elements from the airline’s flagship lounges at Changi’s Terminal 3.

Lounge upgrades include live cooking stations, showers, and more

The First Class SilverKris Lounge will be all new, featuring elevated ceilings, more seating, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Live cooking stations will feature Singaporean, Western, and Asian cuisine. The lounge will also feature an expanded self-serve buffet with items similar to those in the SilverKris lounge in Terminal 3. T
