Changi Airport Group (CAG) on Wednesday said nine airlines would shift their operations to T4 over a one-week period.
Cathay and Korean Air will move on October 31, followed by Cebu Pacific Air and Spring Airlines on November 2. Four AirAsia Group carriers and Vietnam Airlines will move on November 7.
"[The opening of T4] follows the recent successful conclusion of major trials, with a small number of checks and reviews to be completed in the final phase of preparations," said CAG.
The airport operator also conducted trials on selected commercial flights with airline partners at the new terminal "to validate, in a live setting, the inter-operability and process integration of the airport’s and airlines’ systems".
T4 will add a capacity of 16 million passengers per annum to Changi, bringing the airport’s total annual handling capacity to 82 million passengers. The airport handled 57 million passengers in 2016.
