So you’ve booked your trip to Singapore, and now you’re wondering the best way to get from Changi Airport to the city centre. There are various transport options from Changi Airport to suit all budgets, all with varying durations.
The cheapest option is to catch the MRT, the local underground network connecting the whole city through a series of lines. Sometimes the MRT might mean you have to change lines a few times. The nearest MRT station to the Fairmont Hotel is City Hall. The journey should take around 35 minutes, and you’ll have to change at Tanah Merah station.
Another efficient but slightly more expensive option is the city shuttle. The minibuses will take you to any tourist accommodation in the city for a fixed price of $9 per adult and $6 per child, but you’ll have to share the minibus with a few others and make a stop at a few hotels.
A private taxi is the best option to whisk you from the airport to your accommodation in no time, straight to the door so you don’t have to spend time searching for the entrance. A taxi from Changi Airport to the Fairmont hotel should take around 39 minutes.
Make sure you contact your hotel as many provide free or discounted shuttle services from Changi Airport. Whatever your budget, there’s plenty of options to get from Changi Airport to the city centre.
Lastly, most travel agents will be able to book a a private or shuttle airport transfer for you at a much lower price than you would pay for the same service on arrival.
