EDIT: Apologies mods, I thought I was posting in the "Airline Lounges" part of the forum, I'm not sure how I stuffed it to post in "Destination Guides"! Could this be moved to the right spot?
Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, but all I could find were threads from many years ago.
I'm flying SQ J on an overnight flight (part of the midnight-1am bank of departures) from SIN back to Australia in mid-April, and I've been reading online about the overcrowding at T3 Silverkris lounge. I was wondering how bad it is, and if it's worth going to another lounge instead? I have Priority Pass and Amex Platinum so I could go to:
- Silverkris T2 or T3 (using my SQ J ticket)
- Krisflyer Gold T2 or T3 (using my SQ J ticket)
- Marhaba T1 or T3 (PP)
- Ambassador Transit T2 or T3 (PP)
- SATS Premier T1, T2 or T3 (PP)
- Plaza Premium T1 (Amex Platinum)
While I have been lounge-hopping in Singapore previously, that was pre-COVID and I believe most (if not all) of the lounges have changed since then so I'm not sure what they're like these days.
I realise it is somewhat subjective, but is it worth hanging out at some other lounges prior to going to Silverkris T3 later in the evening (I'm assuming it starts to quieten down after 11pm once people start going to the gate for the European departures)? I'll probably be getting to the airport at around 9pm, which is when I understand Silverkris T3 is busiest.
What might be useful would be feedback like:
- Don't worry about going to the other lounges, they're all full like Silverkris at that time anyway,
- The other lounges you can go to are all rubbish, and you should still go to Silverkris despite it being packed, or
- If you have access to _____ lounge due to PP/Amex, then go there because it's heaps better.
