SINGAPORE: Travellers at Changi Airport will have to watch the clock if they do not want to miss their flights. From Jan 1, there will no longer be final call announcements for passengers to head to their boarding gates. Commenting on the latest initiative, Jetstar Group spokesman Robin Goh said: "Final boarding announcements and paging for late passengers serve as final reminders to all passengers and, hence, they help contribute to the on-time performance of airlines and Changi Airport." In Hong Kong, there are no final call or boarding announcements and name paging is done only for special reasons. Changi Airport has more than 600 analogue and digital clocks in both the public and transit areas in all four terminals for passengers' easy reference, Tan said.
