I arrived at Singapore Airport and right now I’m sitting in the business lounge

I’m in the business lounge—you probably already know what that is. I only have two hours instead of four because my flight is very soon, so I can use just two hours. Well, in two hours I can eat, drink, and write one post for my blog. Maybe I can rest a little bit too.

I arrived at the airport at 1:30 PM, and at that time I visited Jewel inside the airport. It’s awesome and ridiculously beautiful. If you are ever at Changi Airport in the future, you must visit it—don’t forget.

After that, I checked in and went through customs and immigration control. Customs and security were very polite and easy. Nobody asked me to take off my shoes or remove my electronic devices from my backpack. Everything was very fast and easy. Immigration (passport control) was also very quick: a camera scanned my face, approved me, and wished me luck. It took only about 10 seconds.

How did I get access to the business lounge for $20? First, I have a bank account in T Bank, and it includes a premium subscription. After I installed the mobile app and linked my bank account, it was all automatically included. With that app, I can get 2 visits per month. For this subscription, I paid 1,990 Russian rubles (about $20). Normally, one visit to a business lounge costs 4,000 rubles ($40). So if I use both visits, without premium subscription it’s worth 8,000 rubles ($80).
