SIN JetQuay Private Terminal
SIN JetQuay Private Terminal
July 2008
Upon arrival, we disembarked thru the F jetway where a lovely JetQuay Girl (not to be confused with our lovely Singapore Girl) was waiting for us and sped us thru the terminal on a red JetQuay golf cart.
I had read about this service in a nearby thread and thought it would be good with my dad, since the walks thru the terminals are at times tiring for him, not to mention slow.
Our JG stopped so I could use the ATM and we arrived at the JetQuay/CIP terminal some 5 minutes after pick up, all without leaving the AC of the main terminals. Four JetQuay employees met us, walked inside their terminal to clear C&I (20 seconds), loaded our bags in the limo (at the curb right outside) and gave me a tour of their facility, which included plush lounge areas, conference rooms, gym and spa center, kitchen and bars.
All this for S$107 total for both of us! Forget the SQ FCL, we booked JetQuay for our return tomorrow... they have their own security station and passport control, and will beep-beep us right to the gate.

After our great experience yesterday with Changi JetQuay on arrival yesterday, the departure experience was even better. After a short 20 minute ride from the MO, our limo driver pulls up to a tree-lined, very secured entrance to the CIT terminal just at the end of T2.
Talk about security... a raised steel car barrier lowers for our arrival and then quickly rises back after we pass thru. No paparazzi will be getting close to us today! A couple of graceful turns around more leafy greens and we pull up to the front door...
... where another even more lovely JetQuay Girl is waiting our arrival. She takes our bags and escorts us thru the lobby...
... and no more than 100 feet from the front door into the JetQuay Lounge where three more JetQuay Girls greet us. I could so seriously get used to this.
We surrender our passports at the front counter and are then escorted to one of dozens of comfortable seating areas. We are the only two people here this morning, unlike on our arrival yesterday when the place was pretty busy.
One of the JetQuay Girls brings us OJ and coffee. Ten minutes later, another JetQuay Girl returns our passports (stamped "Departed", by the in house C&I staff ) together with our burgundy FC SQ BPs. She asks if I'd like a tour of the facility which includes a business center, at least 30 computer stations with open internet access, showers, conference rooms, and 4 nap rooms.
50 minutes before departure, our JetQuay Girl comes for us, with a JetQuay Boy to handle our carry-ons. We ride the elevator up one floor to the terminal level where we board our electric cart for our trip to T3, about 2 miles but no more than 7-8 minutes away.
We stop along the way for a photo op and some shopping. I told you she was lovely.
We then proceed to T3 and gate B4, where we say our good-byes and enter B1-B4 security. She stays at the entrance until we clear security and then waves good-bye. All this for SGD 107!
