How do I get from Changi Airport to central Singapore?

Singapore · Updated 2026-10 · From MeTravel's own trips

The MRT is cheapest, about 45–60 minutes to the centre; Grab or a taxi is faster at about 20–30 minutes.

  • MRT: the green line from Changi Airport station, changing at Tanah Merah or Expo depending on where you go.
  • Tap a contactless bank card at the gate; no ticket needed.
  • Grab or taxi: better with lots of luggage or late arrivals; surcharges apply at peak times.
  • Visit Jewel Changi (the indoor waterfall) before heading into town or before your flight home.

Note: the MRT stops running around midnight; take a taxi if you land late.
