Our current work-from-home arrangement comes with its perks, but also a fair share of WFH problems. You no longer have to wake up an hour in advance to prep and commute to the office – but at home, you’re probably working next to a bed that’s calling out to you every now and then or dealing with noisy family or neighbours.
For a change of environment, check out Changi Lounge at Jewel Changi Airport– a quiet, posh spot with ample power ports and free Wi-Fi. They’re now offering discounted packages that include free snacks and drinks from $12 for 2 hours, with extensions at $4/hour. With a booking of at least 4 hours ($20, U.P. $48), you’ll also be entitled to free 4-hour parking.
Alas, what used to be an arrival lounge for frequent flyers is now available to us at affordable rates.
If you have important discussions with colleagues and you prefer face-to-face interactions after months of Zoom meetings, you can also book their spacious meeting rooms from $60/hour for a maximum of 4 pax, with extensions at $20/hour.
All meeting room bookings come with a free snack and unlimited drinks. The rooms are also equipped with a large screen and projector, video conferencing facilities, and they’re spacious enough to ensure safe distancing between all participants.

One thing we’re missing about office life is the pantry, where you get to take mini breaks and get your cup of joe for the day.
The most basic lounge package ($12 for 2 hours) at the lounge entitles you to a free pre-packed snack such as a packet of chips or a slice of cake and a complimentary drink choice of coffee, tea, Coke and Sprite. As a safety precaution, their regular buffet spread will not be available, but you can still enjoy a plethora of dining options at Jewel just a stone’s throw away.
Whether you want a productivity boost or an escape from the distractions at home, it no longer costs a bomb to work in a tranquil space to boost your productivity.
To make a reservation, simply call or email them with the relevant details. With many popular cafes implementing seating duration limits due to safe distancing measures, Jewel’s Changi Lounge is an affordable alternative for now.
