Like OMG Asia is SO Taking Off!
Okay dolls let's be real. Asia is THE place to be right now! I mean have you seen the street style? But seriously the travel scene here is about to explode like one of my champagne bottles at a launch party. Singapore's Changi Airport is building a whole new TERMINAL – Terminal 5 to be exact! It's gonna be HUGE almost doubling the airport's size. More room for my entourage obvi. And get this – it's supposed to be ready by the mid 2030s. That's like forever from now in Kardashian time but still exciting!
Changi: Not Just an Airport It's a Lifestyle!
Changi honey is not just an airport; it's an experience. They've won 'World's Best Airport' like thirteen times! That's more awards than I have selfies (okay maybe not but still!). Last year they handled almost 68 million passengers. Can you imagine all the designer luggage? And now with Terminal 5 they're aiming for 140 million! That's a whole lotta people living their best lives... hopefully in SKIMS.
Mega Airports Mega Drama (and Mega Shopping!)
Okay so apparently airports that handle over 100 million passengers are called 'mega airports.' Sounds intense right? Like a Kardashian family dinner! Asia already has three of these bad boys in Beijing Tokyo and Shanghai. And with air travel set to grow almost 7% over the next 25 years things are only gonna get crazier. More people more planes more opportunities for airport fashion moments. I'm here for it!
Asia's Airport Makeover: $240 Billion?!
Did you hear about the airports getting $240 Billion invested?! That is more money than all the Birkin bags in the world! But this is a necessity for better infrastructure more luxury shops and more runway to land those private jets. Think of it as the ultimate glow up – but for airports. I mean if I had that kind of cash I'd probably just buy a private island. But hey improved airports are cool too I guess.
Singapore is Seriously Extra (in the Best Way)
Singapore's Prime Minister Lawrence Wong says Terminal 5 will connect with 200 cities! That's like having a global Rolodex. And get this: aviation contributes 5% of Singapore's GDP! That's a bigger percentage than my morning glam takes out of my day. Talk about being a major player. They are so smart and business savvy over there. Goals!
Tourism Goals: More Money More Honey!
Singapore wants to increase tourism revenue to almost $50 billion in the next 15 years! That's a serious hustle. And they're focusing on business travelers. Smart move. More conferences more deals more opportunities to network... and maybe sneak in a little shopping. Plus Terminal 5 will help Singapore maintain its status as the best airport in the world! Which let's be honest is totally deserved. Now if only they could install a SKIMS pop up shop...
