First impressions are important, especially if you’re a city and you’d like folks who are just passing through to come back and stay awhile.

I’m a big fan of free. Free wireless Internet at airports. Free admission to cool museums. Free samples. And free travel. And while I’m personally one of those “I never win anything” people, I keep that line (I think I saw it on a lottery commercial) in mind – “Some lucky dog’s gonna’ win it” […]

Moss is performing three times a day, in Changi’s Terminal 1 Departure/ Transit […]

The Changi Airport group is hosting “Java Mondays with Changi” beginning this Monday, August17, 2009 from 6.30 to 7.30 am and continuing on Monday mornings for the next six months. The […]
