Changi Airport Group

Changi Airport Group is the company that licenses and runs Singapore Changi Airport, the main international airport of Singapore. It was formed on 16 June 2009 when the airport was corporatised by the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore, which until then had operated it directly, and it took over as the licensee and operator. The group is responsible for the overall safety and security of the airport, with an airport management division handling the customer side of security and an emergency services division covering rescue and fire fighting. It also manages the Changi Airfreight Centre through its air hub and cargo development department, and it co-developed the Jewel Changi Airport retail and leisure complex through a joint venture with CapitaLand. The airport it operates is owned by the Singapore Government and is a base for more than one hundred international carriers.
