Hey everyone!

I’m considering booking a Scoot flight from Manila to Phuket with a layover at Singapore Changi Airport (SIN). I would arrive at 11:50 PM, and my connecting flight would be the following morning.

I have a Priority Pass and would prefer to stay in the transit area rather than going through immigration.
Which Priority Pass lounge would you recommend for getting some sleep overnight?

Also, how strict are the lounges about their usual 3-hour time limit? Does anyone have experience staying longer than 3 hours, for example, if you accidentally fall asleep and lose track of time?
Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi all very excited to be visiting Singapore next year 😊

Any hotel or Airbnb recommendations reasonably close to East Coast Parkrun please? 2 adults and one teen, ideally 2 bed or with a living area for some space.

Thank you!

Hi! I'll be visiting Singapore soon and want to exchange €500 banknotes for SGD.

I have a non-EU passport from a country with a relatively weak passport. Will money changers accept my €500 notes, or could my nationality be an issue? Has anyone had experience with this?

Thank you in advance!

We are visiting Singapore in a week and are concerned about the haze enveloping Singapore. Which experiences should be prioritized given this? For example I know that the Oceanarium and gardens by the bay are indoor experiences so these make sense.

Hello Everyone,

This is my last day in your country & honestly have no idea of how the last 5 days passed, loved it very much, from public transport to clean sheets & adventure activities.

Tomorrow is my flight & exploring the city post checking out the hotel, tried interacting with 1-2 people to understand the culture & how a day looks in your life.

Would love to meet someone is anyone is up for it & can tell me more about your culture but seems the Asian society is more conservative, oh yeah, I am M25 by the way from North India.

Would definitely be missing SG a lot, out of all the countries I have traveled to, this was the best.

Hi all, I'm visiting from New Zealand for a couple of weeks , and I'm looking to meet some people to explore Singapore with!
I like going for walks, visiting all the attractions, as well as having a drink and a good laugh. I'm also a pretty big foodie and doing an eating challenge is on the bucket list. If you know any good food spots that's a bonus 🤞
If you're also a tourist or a local who'd be down, hmu!

If you (or your kids) are the type to hunt down weird or imported snacks wherever you travel, Singapore has more going on than 7-Eleven. A few spots worth knowing about:

Mustafa Centre (Little India) — open 24 hours, a huge international grocery section, good for imported snacks from all over at non-touristy prices. Go late at night if you want to dodge the crowds.

Don Don Donki — the Japanese snack/variety chain, with locations across the island (Orchard, Tanjong Pagar, and others). Great if you're into Japanese candy and drinks, and most branches stay open very late too.

Candy Empire on Orchard Road — a big, long-running confectionery shop with a wide range of international candy and chocolate, plus a section of local-snack souvenirs.

The Candy Store at Tanglin Mall — smaller and more curated, leans into viral TikTok candy, American and UK imports, Swedish sweets, that kind of thing. Worth a quick stop if Tanglin Mall is already on your route (it's right by Botanic Gardens MRT).

None of these are must-see attractions, obviously, but if you've got a sweet tooth or a kid who collects weird snacks, they're an easy add to a day that already has you in those areas.
