Changi Airport is a huge disappointment now that the runways and much of the docking bays are completely obscured from the viewing galleries of both T1 and T2. What's a viewing gallery if you have nothing to see? It's either to make space for more airline offices, for some stupid post 9/11 security reasons, or just to prevent commoners who aren't travelling from loitering at this so-called world-class airport.
It certainly takes the fun out of going to the airport to look at the planes like in the past, and I guess the airport authority has precisely that in mind.
