In Singapore, JetQuay – the airport services and passenger experience specialist majority owned by WFS – has successfully renewed its contract, with effect from January 2023, to operate the airport’s elite CIP (Commercially Important Passenger) Terminal. It provides a comprehensive range of VIP services for travellers, including airline check-in and immigration clearance, a luxury lounge as well as limousine service to escort high priority guests to and from their aircraft.
“JetQuay has operated the CIP Terminal for over 16 years, prior to this latest contract renewal, and we are immensely honoured to continue to gain the trust of the airport authority to serve Changi Airport’s VIP guests and to ensure the best-in-class service and comfort levels they deserve. This new contract reflects the airport’s trust in the JetQuay team’s ability to maintain these high standards and to make Singapore an airport of choice for VIP travellers,” Abraham Lim, General Manager at JetQuay, added.
