There are big glass panels spanning the height of the terminal here for the entire length of the central apron. You can also see gate F31, the first gate to be A380-ready, and its three jetways from here. The gate right next to the glass sees only A320 and B737s, but even then their wingtips come close to the glass. This place is very well lit at night, especially the colourful shop signs, so do watch out for reflections. There is also a very useful ledge (which is actually the glass panel frame) which can be used for a tripod at night, or a support to stabilise your shots in the day, and is wide enough to accomodate a DSLR and certain lenses. Movements on the T2 central apron, as well as on 20C/02C can be seen from here. Do note that the glass is tinted green, and it can affect your pictures, so watch your colours closely. Spotting is best done in the afternoon.

Like Terminal 2, large glass panels span the height of the terminal. Down here you can see 20R/02L movements, as well as planes parked at the gates in front of the glass. The A380 parks at the A-gates in front of the glass every day. Do note that the glass is tinted green, and it can affect your pictures, so watch your colours closely. Spotting is best done in the morning.

==Locations to Avoid==
==Locations to Avoid==
===Changi Coast Road===
===Changi Coast Road===
The perimeter fence along this area is double-fenced, preventing a clear view of the airport. Only the emergency gates have a single fencing. From here, you have a side-on view of runway 20C/02C operations, the entire Terminal 2 and gates D40 to D49 of Terminal 1. However, Changi Airport is designated a Protected Place, hence photographing the terminals, apron or runway is illegal. Parking in front of the emergency gates is also prohibited. This area is regularly patrolled by police both within and outside the airport, who will not hesitate to stop and request you to leave.
Changi Coast Road runs parallel to the eastern perimeter of Changi Airport as well as the main departures runway 20C/02C. However, there are two layers of perimeter fencing preventing a clear view of the airport. Photography along the fence line is not permitted and you will be quickly moved on by airport police. It is also not advisable to park along the Changi Coast Road as you will be obstructing fast-flowing traffic. It is highly recommended that you do not spot or photograph from this location.
The location requires either a car or a bicycle to get there as it is a good 5km to the nearest bus stop and taxis don't usually pick-up passengers from the Coast Road. There is a park connector which is separated from the perimeter fence by the Changi Coast Road with occasional shelters along the path. This park connector offers you a view of the airport as well, but obstructed by the double fencing. It is highly recommended that you DO NOT use this location for photography or even spotting using binoculars etc. You are also advised to comply fully with all police instructions if you encounter police as they can, and will, take action against those who fail to do so.


===South Cross===
===South Cross===
This refers to two aircraft bridges over Airport Boulevard. Alongside the aircraft bridges is a pedestrian and vehicular bridge. Aircraft occasionally cross this bridge. It is highly recommended that you DO NOT use this location for spotting or photography as the airport is designated a protected place and photography of the airport buildings, apron or runways is illegal. Police patrols are regular and you are requested to cooperate fully with the police if questioned or asked to leave.
Toward the south of the airport there is a pedestrian bridge over Airport Boulevard that runs parallel to the two South Cross taxiways. Since June 2016 photography on the South Cross pedestrian bridge is not permitted and clear No Photography signs have been posted on the bridge. You are advised not to use this location for spotting or photography. Loitering on the bridge should also be avoided.
