This article is about Plane Spotting in public accessible areas in Singapore.
Changi Airport may be the best, or one of the best airports in the world.

However, if you think the best place to spot planes in Singapore are the Viewing Malls in Changi Airport, then you may be disappointed. They may be the most convenient and most comfortable (if you do not mind a possibly noisy environment). But unfortunately, these Viewing Malls are small and mostly you can only see the planes coming to park at the aerobridges. At night, the lighting at these Viewing Malls are not good for looking out for planes. If this is not bad enough, depending on which Viewing Malls you are in, you may have to look through double glassed windows. First you have to look through the glass of the Viewing Mall and then you have to look through the glass of the Transit Area.
Luckily, there are areas where you can do plane spotting in Singapore. Some of these areas are at Changi Airport or near it.
One of the best area to do serious plane spotting must be the Changi Airport's South Cross Bridge. It is where planes cross between the eastern and western sides of the airport.

There are two bridges for you to choose from, depending on which direction you prefer the planes to come from.
Please make sure you are not taking photographs or videos in areas where signs are warning you not to take photographs or videos as you may get arrested and get a heavy fine or even imprisonment.
Patience is needed as we do not know when the planes will be crossing. If you are lucky, they come one after another. If not, you will have to patiently bake in the sun unless you hide under the bridge and may miss the planes, or if you go at night but then the lighting may not be good.
Another area good for plane spotting is at the end of the East Coast Park, where you started seeing the dinosaur cutouts that direct you towards the Jurassic Mile. This is where you can see planes preparing for landing.

The next good viewing area is also in East Coast Park, at Area G where the National Sailing Club is located.

Yet another good viewing area is not only good for plane spotting but also ship spotting! This is at Changi Point Coastal Walk. Between here to Changi Beach Park, you can find many great spots to spot planes and ships too!
