Luggage Belt.jpgAlso to note, there will be a SGD 21 airport service charge that will normally be included in your airline ticket fees. However, it will be best to check with your agent if the fee had already been included in the air ticket pricing. There will not be this SGD 21 charge for travellers transiting in Singapore Changi International Airport within 24 hours.

As everyone probably knows, Singapore is a “fine” country in terms of travelling, safety and of course the fine penalties for law offenders. What I want to emphasize is NOT to ever bring illegal drugs into or out of Singapore. Drug abuse is viewed seriously in Singapore and the highest penalty will be the death penalty. My advice is not to carry any luggage for others because if they do contain dutiable, controlled or prohibited items, you will be held responsible.
