The cruise terminal is equipped with free wifi, souvenir shopping, and currency exchange. Plus, the Marina South Pier metro station is a short walk away, making it easy to get to or from your cruise ship to the city’s financial and business district. The city of Singapore has greatly invested in making its cruise facilities modern, luxurious, and state of the art.

Top Sights & Attractions for Cruises to Singapore

Gardens by the bay.

The Gardens by the Bay have become completely synonymous with Singapore. Here you’ll find sculptures in the shape of funky flowers lit up in bright colors. The garden is home to multiple greenhouses, like the Flower Dome, where the temperatures and the plant life are always in spring. In the Cloud Forest, a small mountain was built for visitors to scale, bringing a tropical mountain climate all the way to Singapore. Guided tours and shows happen daily, and there’s something for all ages here, including a children’s garden and a sculpture park.

Singapore Botanic Garden

This UNESCO World Heritage site is one of the few places to see the island’s rarest vegetation and greenery, making it not only a paradise but also one of the most important preservation efforts in all of Asia. When you cruise Singapore, take a leisurely walk through the grounds, where you can literally stop and smell the flowers. The Orchid Garden offers the largest collection of orchids in the world, and imported swans float along Swan Lake for a romantic afternoon out.

Singapore Flyer

Take a ride on the incredible Singapore flyer, a massive Ferris wheel in the heart of Singapore. Rides last about 30 minutes and offer incredible, panoramic views of the city during the adventure. Watch the futuristic skyline on one side and the peaceful harbor as ships float in and out on the other. At night, the Flyer even lights up.

Night Safari

For a close look at some of Singapore’s most exotic wildlife, take an unforgettable night safari, where you’ll enjoy a tram ride through this nocturnal zoo in the heart of the rainforest while on your cruise to Singapore. Nearly 150 species call this ecosystem their home, and 38 of them are endangered. There are even shows like fire-twirling and dancing, and smaller group buggy rides through the park with an expert guide.

Top things to do in singapore, go shopping on orchard road.

The definitive spot for shopping in Singapore is Orchard Road, the shopping district home to over 5,000 businesses. You can lose track of time here while on a cruise to Singapore, whether you’re looking to explore art galleries, try on new clothes, or browse for high-end goods. There’s even a rare whisky museum where you can enjoy whisky tastings. Orchard Road is also home to many bars and restaurants that add to Singapore’s gourmet scene.

Board a Bumboat

One of the best ways to admire the Singapore skyline is by taking a scenic bumboat cruise down the Singapore River. From the water, you’ll marvel at the historic Boat Quay, as well as the city’s more modern architectural sites, including the towering Marina Bay Sands and Helix Bridge. If you board a bumboat at night, you’ll also have the chance to enjoy a thrilling laser show with music, light, and water that come together for a magnificent visual experience.

Walk Singapore’s Chinatown

When stopped before your cruise from Singapore, you’ll see the city has a vibrant energy that is infectious. Singapore’s Chinatown is a must-see for some of the cheapest, best street food in the city, shops featuring local artists and designers, and beautifully preserved temples. Walk the narrow streets, stop for a bite to eat, or tour the restored temple Thian Hock Keng.

Where should I eat in Singapore?

Imperial Treasure Super Peking Duck

Make a reservation for one of the top spots for dim sum and its namesake, peking duck, here. There’s a location very close to the shopping along Orchard Road. This cozy spot is ideal for lunch after a long stretch of boutique hopping. You’ll want to plan ahead. Advanced orders are required if you want to nosh on the Beijing-style roasted duck.

Tarts at Tarte by Cheryl Koh

Address: #01-12, 1 Scotts Road, Singapore

When you’re craving sweets, Tarts at Tarte bring you pretty much every variety of tart, cake, and truffle available. Here you’ll find 66% dark chocolate tarts, blood orange tarts, and light-as-air sponge cakes. Bring some back to the ship with you as you cruise Singapore. Coffee and tea are menu staples, too. 

Address: #01-03 Dorsett Residences, Singapore

The one Michelin-starred Candlenut frequently makes “best of” lists in Singapore for its gourmet takes on Peranakan cuisine. The menu changes based on seasonal and available produce, and also offers luxe a la carte options from baby squid to chicken curry. Chef Malcolm Lee brings an extravagance to recipes passed down through generations of family.

Park Bench Deli

Address: 179 Telok Ayer St., Singapore 068627

Unpretentious and styled like an American deli, Park Bench Deli is a place to hang out with a juicy sandwich and a cold beer. From a classic fried chicken sandwich to the more adventurous pastrami tater tots, head here for comfort food in the heart of Singapore.

What’s the culture and history of Singapore?

The island of Singapore was settled by the British in the early 19th century, who then built up the port and encouraged international trade to the area. Singapore gained independence in 1965 and quickly became one of the wealthiest and most expensive places in the world as investments in housing, education, and trade began to expand. Singapore’s culture is a melting pot, known for influences from both Asia and Europe, where you’ll hear residents speaking many languages from English to Mandarin to Tamil. Its warm climate year-round makes it a favorite for tropical weather lovers.

Where can I go shopping near the Singapore cruise port?

Find luxury brands and well-known names when you’re shopping at the Marina Bay Sands Mall, which is just a short 15-minute ride from the cruise center, particularly if you’re interested in high fashion and Singaporean designers. Singapore’s Chinatown is also a must-see for its energy, where vendors not only sell cheap eats at their stalls, but also offer fashion from independent and emerging designers and artists looking to support their craft. Because so many vendors also sell food, you can hop from boutique to boutique and stay close to some of the best food before your cruise from Singapore. 

How can I get around Singapore?  

Singapore’s Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system is comprehensive and easy to navigate, not to mention efficient and clean. Hop off at the Marina South Pier station, just a short walk from the Marina Bay Cruise Centre, after spending time in downtown Singapore and the city’s main sights. Of course, taxis are very common in Singapore, but only stop at designated stands to drop you off once you’re in the city to curb traffic and make the drop-off process smoother for the city. Singapore doesn’t host ride-sharing services like Uber or Lyft currently. The city’s trishaws are mostly a tourist activity now, so be careful not to pay too much for one. 

What are the local currency and tipping customs?

The official currency of Singapore is the Singaporean dollar (S$). Tipping isn’t common practice in Singapore, and credit cards are considered the norm here. You can find currency exchange at banks and conveniently at the cruise port, called the Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore.

It's official - these are the BEST airlines to fly with in 2024

Posted: July 9, 2024 | Last updated: July 9, 2024

The winner takes it all

Forget inedible meals, postage-stamp-sized economy seats and sky-high fares – the airline industry is stepping up this year. From top-tier comfort and cleanliness to the best customer service and family-friendly facilities, we've rounded up a selection of the winners from Skytrax's World Airline Awards 2024.

Click or scroll through the gallery to discover which airlines are going the distance to make your flying experience that little bit more special this year...

World’s Most Improved Airline: Saudia

This award analyses an airline’s progress year-on-year, examining its change in global rating within Skytrax’s World Airline Awards programme and its performance improvements in the individual award categories. Coming out on top as the Most Improved Airline for 2024, Saudia – a past two-time champ in this category – has been recognised for its punctuality and its commitment to operational upgrades.

From ranking among the globe’s most on-time airlines throughout 2023 to undergoing a sparkling rebrand, Saudia is going from strength to strength. The flag carrier for Saudi Arabia is also in the midst of acquiring 154 new Boeing and Airbus planes to expand its fleet, which will see a comprehensive interior retrofit in the coming months.

World’s Cleanest Airline: Cathay Pacific Airways

Knocking All Nippon Airways (ANA) off its perch after three consecutive years as the World’s Cleanest Airline, Cathay Pacific Airways takes the crown in 2024. Accounting for the standard and calibre of cleanliness in the aircraft cabin, this award recognises airlines whose seats, tray tables, carpets, cabin panels and toilets are squeakily spotless.

Founded in the aftermath of the Second World War, Hong Kong’s flag carrier comes fifth overall in Skytrax’s list of the World’s Top 100 Airlines this year. Cathay has had no shortage of impressive achievements throughout its history – it operated the first non-stop passenger flight between Hong Kong and New York in 1998, which was also the longest direct commercial flight ever made at that time, taking 15 hours and 35 minutes.

World’s Best Airline Cabin Crew: Singapore Airlines

Running away with the Best Airline Cabin Crew title this year, the national carrier for Singapore is commended by Skytrax for the attentive and approachable nature of its flight attendants. Singapore Airlines connects nearly 80 destinations worldwide to and from its home country, with a network spanning five continents.

The airline prides itself on the excellence of its cabin crew, who undergo one of the most rigorous training programmes in the skies and act as ambassadors of this island city-state. The Skytrax website rates Singapore Airlines’ stewards five stars for their language skills, demonstrating how they can effectively personalise the experiences of passengers from all around the globe.

World’s Best Economy Class: Cathay Pacific Airways

Stealing the show for World’s Best Economy Class (and Asia’s Best Economy Class Onboard Catering), Cathay Pacific also proved to be 2024’s top airline for the everyday traveller. Thanks to its top-notch food, comfy seats, complimentary treats and speedy staff service, the airline ranks highly for both its short and long-haul economy experiences.

Serving more than 70 international destinations in 30 countries, Cathay’s fleet of revamped Boeing 777-300ERs have gradually taken flight this year, offering enhanced comfort and contemporary design across all of its cabins. Economy travellers can expect new ergonomic seating, adjustable headrests and even a little shelf on some aircraft to safely stow your phone.

World’s Best Premium Economy Class: Japan Airlines

Sweeping up the award for the World's Best Premium Economy Class, first-time winner in this category Japan Airlines also claimed gold for the Best Premium Economy Class Airline Seat. Currently one of only 10 5-star airlines according to Skytrax, Japan’s flag carrier has been in the game since 1951, when it became the first civil aviation service to operate in the country since the Second World War.

Japan Airlines got a boost this year when the new Airbus A350-1000 was introduced on its routes. This aircraft offers a few welcome benefits for premium economy travellers, including large privacy dividers, motorised adjustable leg rests and television screens that are 1.3 times larger than their predecessors.

World's Best Regional Airline: Bangkok Airways

As well as bagging the Best Regional Airline in Asia award, Bangkok Airways took home first place for the World’s Best Regional Airline. It might not come as a surprise: it's the eighth consecutive year the airline has won both awards. It serves 12 Thai hotspots and a growing number of international destinations, including Cambodia, Singapore, the Maldives, China, Hong Kong and Laos.

Bangkok Airways comprises a 24-strong fleet, with each aircraft decorated in their own liveries representing the destinations they fly to. The company's latest generation aircraft, the ATR 72-600, includes a full-glass cockpit and larger overhead bins.

Best Regional Airline in North America: Porter Airlines

One of the newer airlines to be recognised in the awards, Canadian short-haul carrier Porter was founded in 2006. Flying to 30 destinations (and counting) across Canada and the United States, Porter Airlines claims to offer economy passengers an in-flight experience that’s hard to beat, featuring complimentary beverages, premium snacks and wifi.

Since 1 August 2023, Porter has increased its flight frequency between Toronto Pearson and several other Canadian cities, including Vancouver, Montreal and Calgary. These routes are served by the airline’s shiny new E195-E2 jets which, among other plus points, have no middle seats – meaning greater comfort and convenience all-round.

World’s Best Low-Cost Airline: AirAsia

This reliable airline has been awarded the World's Best Low-Cost Airline since 2010 and is well-recognised by other industry heavyweights for its budget offerings. The Premium Flatbed seat on its Airbus A330 is considered among the world’s best-value premium cabins, being fully reclinable with adjustable head and foot rests, plus comfy bedding and a privacy screen. Complimentary meals, priority boarding and baggage collection, and access to hours of inflight entertainment are included in the cost too.

The Malaysia-based airline operates flights across its home continent and beyond, with connections to Australia, the US, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Japan and more. Sign up for the rewards scheme and you can earn AirAsia points on whatever fare you choose, which can then be redeemed against hotels, tours, car hire and even future flights.

World's Best Low-Cost Long-Haul Airline: Scoot

Scoot, owned by the Singapore Airlines Group, has been awarded first place for budget travellers seeking long-haul destinations for three consecutive years now. The airline's economy class offers three fares: Fly, FlyBag and FlyBagEat. The cheapest fare is Fly, allowing carry-on of up to 10kg (22lbs) per passenger; FlyBag includes 20kg (44lbs) of checked baggage; and FlyBagEat adds on a hot meal.

But there's another reason everyone's talking about Scoot. In September 2022, it launched its first Pokemon-themed plane (pictured). The Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner (or 'Pikachu Jet TR'), with its colourful livery and Japanese-inspired menu, serves selected journeys between Singapore, Osaka, Tokyo and Seoul throughout 2024.

World’s Most Family Friendly Airline: British Airways

This is only the second consecutive year that Skytrax has featured this category, which accounts for how well an airline accommodates families being seated together; how helpful staff are; what dedicated family check-in, baggage and boarding procedures are in place; and the quality of children’s meals, entertainment and amenities. In a rare win for a British airline in these awards, the UK’s flag carrier ran away with the title of the World’s Most Family Friendly Airline for 2024.

Surpassing last year’s winner, Air Canada (which slid to third place), British Airways was recognised for its liberal baggage allowance (factoring in pushchairs, car seats and booster seats), priority pre-boarding, and an abundant suite of inflight entertainment to keep both kids and parents occupied for long journeys. The airline serves almost 300 destinations domestically and around the world, including Buenos Aires, Belfast, Marrakech and NYC.

Best Airline in South America: LATAM

The largest airline in Latin America, LATAM won big across Skytrax's South America categories in 2024, taking gold for Best Airline, Best Airline Staff and Best Business Class on the continent, among others. The airline serves Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay.

So what makes LATAM so great? The airline is addressing its sustainability credentials and pledged to eliminate all single-use plastics onboard its services by the end of 2023. It also aims to be zero-waste by 2027 and carbon neutral by 2050. Plus, its range of LATAM Airlines credit cards could see you earn up to 40,000 miles to redeem on flights.

Best Airline in Africa: Ethiopian Airlines

Not only did Ethiopian Airlines rank in the top 40% of Skytrax's list of the best 100 airlines in the world in 2024, but it was also crowned the Best Airline in Africa once again after winning the category for six previous years. The flag carrier of Ethiopia was founded in 1945 and today serves 15 domestic and over 60 international destinations. The airline has the youngest and newest fleet across the entire continent, consisting of Boeing's Dreamliners and Triple Sevens as well as Airbus A350s.

There’s a range of cabin types – economy includes complimentary drinks and its luxury Cloud Nine service provides a curated business-class experience. Guests of Cloud Nine can enjoy exclusive lounge access, additional baggage allowance and an even comfier flight with more room to stretch out.

Best Airline in Europe: Turkish Airlines

Turkish Airlines was founded in 1933 with just five aircraft. Today, it flies to 280 destinations in more than 120 countries, best summed up by its tagline: “We fly to more countries than any other airline in the world". The national carrier won the sought-after Best Airline in Europe award, as well as the same award for services in Southern Europe.

The airline offers an incredible culinary service – winning the top award for Europe’s best onboard catering in both business and economy class in 2024 – and its highly regarded lounge welcomes travellers in Istanbul. It’s regularly commended for being the best long-haul travel experience in Europe, and also serves Africa, North America and Asia.

Best Airline in North America: Delta Air Lines

According to Skytrax, Delta Air Lines is the top airline in North America for the third consecutive year. The accolades don’t stop there – the US-owned airline dominated the major North American categories, taking Best Airline Staff Service, Best Business Class, Best Premium Economy Class and Best Economy Class. It’s one of the world’s oldest airlines and is constantly expanding its network, having added London Gatwick to its roster in 2023 for the first time in 15 years.

But what makes it worth flying with? From check-in to landing, there’s a seamless system; its Airport Curbside service (at most US airports) allows you to check in your baggage as soon as you’ve exited your vehicle at passenger drop-off. Its cabins range from Basic Economy to Delta One, where you can enjoy your own flat-bed seat, luxury skincare products and chef-curated meals.

World’s Best Airline Overall: Qatar Airways

Ranked number one for 2024 in the World’s Top 100 Airlines by Skytrax is Qatar Airways, making this the eighth time in the contest’s history that the Qatari flag carrier has been crowned the best of the best. It also beat out the competition in several other categories, including World’s Best Business Class, World’s Best Business Class Seat, Best Cabin Crew in the Middle East and Cleanest Airline in the Middle East.

Qatar Airways reclaimed the top spot from Singapore Airlines, 2023’s Airline of the Year, though the Singaporean national carrier still cleaned up in the majority of the first-class categories for Asia. The Qatari airline, based out of Doha’s Hamad International Airport, is especially renowned among discerning travellers for 'the world’s best value stopover'. These packages allow you to turn two trips into one, sandwiching in a short break in Qatar en route to your final destination.

World Bank country classifications by income level for 2024-2025

Eric metreau, kathryn elizabeth young, shwetha grace eapen.

The World Bank Group assigns the world’s economies [1]  to four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high. The classifications are updated each year on July 1, based on the GNI per capita of the previous calendar year. GNI measures are expressed in United States dollars [2]  using conversion factors derived according to the  Atlas method , which in its current form was introduced in 1989 [3] . The World Bank’s income classification aims to reflect a country’s level of development, drawing on  Atlas GNI per capita  as a broadly available indicator of economic capacity. The classification of countries into income categories has evolved significantly over the period since the late 1980s. In 1987, 30% of reporting countries were classified as low-income and 25% as high-income countries. Jumping to 2023, these overall ratios have shifted down to 12% in the low-income category and up to 40% in the high-income category.  The scale and direction of these shifts, however, varies a great deal between world regions. Here are some regional highlights:

• 100% of South Asian countries were classified as low-income countries in 1987, whereas this share has fallen to just 13% in 2023.
• In the Middle East and North Africa there is a higher share of low-income countries in 2023 (10%) than in 1987, when no countries were classified to this category.
• In Latin America and the Caribbean , the share of high-income countries has climbed from 9% in 1987 to 44% in 2023.
• Europe and Central Asia has a slightly lower share of high-income countries in 2023 (69%) than it did in 1987 (71%).  

These changing compositions are depicted visually in the diagram below, which shows country classifications by region and over time since 1987.  

Classification changes

The updated country income classifications for FY25, based on the GNI per capita of 2023, are available  here .

From a statistical perspective, classifications can change for two reasons:

• Changes to Atlas GNI per capita : In each country, factors such as economic growth, inflation, exchange rates, and population growth can all influence the level of Atlas GNI per capita. Revisions to improve methods and data can also have an impact. Updated data on Atlas GNI per capita for 2023 can be accessed  here .
• Changes to classification thresholds : To keep income classification thresholds fixed in real terms, they are adjusted annually for inflation using the  Special Drawing Rights (SDR) deflator , a weighted average of the GDP deflators of China, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Euro Area. The new thresholds for Atlas GNI per capita (in US$) are as follows:  

The chart below shows the economies moving to new income categories this year:  

This year, three countries—Bulgaria, Palau, and Russia—moved from the upper-middle-income to the high-income category:

• Bulgaria  has been steadily approaching the high-income threshold with modest growth throughout the post-pandemic recovery period, which continued in 2023 as real GDP grew 1.8%, supported by consumption demand.
• Palau  also continued its post-pandemic recovery as GDP returned to previous levels, growing by 0.4% in real terms. With inflation (as measured by the GDP deflator) at 8.1%, nominal GNI increased 10.0%.
• Economic activity in  Russia  was influenced by a large increase in military related activity in 2023, while growth was also boosted by a rebound in trade (+6.8%), the financial sector (+8.7%), and construction (+6.6%). These factors led to increases in both real (3.6%) and nominal (10.9%) GDP, and Russia’s Atlas GNI per capita grew by 11.2%.  

Algeria, Iran, Mongolia, and Ukraine all moved up from the lower-middle-income to the upper-middle-income category this year: 

• While the  Algeria n economy grew 4.1% in 2023, the main reason for the upward reclassification was a comprehensive revision to national accounts statistics undertaken by the Algerian authorities (Office National des Statistiques) to align with current international standards. This realignment resulted in an upward revision to the level of GDP (on average 13.3% higher over the 2018-2022 period) due, for example, to the expansion of investment estimates to include research and development, improved methods for measuring production in public administration, and improved coverage of the non-observed economy.
• Iran ’s economy grew 5.0% in 2023, driven mainly by oil exports and supported by gains in services and manufacturing. GNI jumped 39.5% in nominal terms which, combined with the depreciation of the Iranian rial, resulted in a 17.6% increase of the Atlas GNI per capita.
• Mongolia  continued its recovery after the pandemic, with real GDP increasing 7.0% in 2023. Growth was driven by expansions in mining of 23.4%, along with higher export prices which boosted exports by 53.4%.
• Ukraine ’s upward change in classification resulted from a resumption of economic growth in 2023 (real GDP grew 5.3%, following a drop of 28.8% in 2022) along with a continued decline in population, which has fallen more than 15% since the invasion from Russia began. These factors were further amplified by price increases of domestically produced goods and services to result in a large increase in nominal Atlas GNI per capita of 18.5%. While Ukraine’s economy was significantly impaired by Russia’s invasion, real growth in 2023 was driven by construction activity (24.6%), reflecting a sizable increase in investment spending (52.9%) supporting Ukraine’s reconstruction effort in the wake of ongoing destruction.

West Bank and Gaza was the only country whose classification moved downward this year. The conflict in the Middle East began in October 2023, and while the impact on West Bank and Gaza was limited to the fourth quarter, its scale was nonetheless sufficient to lead to a 9.2% drop in nominal GDP (-5.5% in real terms). Since West Bank and Gaza’s economy was close to the threshold (it entered the upper-middle-income category only last year), these declines brought Atlas GNI per capita back down to the lower-middle-income category.

Detailed information on how the World Bank Group classifies countries is available  here . The  country and lending groups  page provides a complete list of economies classified by income, region, and World Bank lending status and includes links to prior years’ classifications. The classification tables include World Bank member countries, along with all other economies with populations greater than 30,000. These classifications reflect the best available GNI figures for 2023, which may be revised as countries publish improved final estimates. Data for  GNI ,  GNI per capita ,  GDP ,  GDP PPP , and  Population  for 2023 are now available on the World Bank's Open Data Catalog. Note that these are estimates and may be revised.

Public transport is excellent in Singapore, but if you prefer to use a taxi, use the Grab app for quick pickups.

Drinking alcohol after 10:30 p.m. is prohibited, so be sure to plan your night accordingly.

CUISINE UNITED BY FOOD 

Singaporeans are united by one common love: good food. It's almost impossible to walk down a street without the delicious scents of cooking food making your belly rumble!

HOKKIEN MEE, PLEASE!

Hokkien mee is one of the most popular stir-fry dishes in Singapore. The combination of egg noodles, chopped rice noodles, seafood, veggies and some chili sauce will leave you full and happy.

CHOW ON CHAI TOW

Commonly known as carrot cake, chai tow kway is actually made with daikon radish and rice flour. Fried with eggs and pork fat, it's a greasy, salty, gooey and crispy adventure on a plate.

ROAST ON RICE

Try tender slices of roast duck (expertly cooked with crispy skin) over a simple bowl of white rice. You'll definitely find the simple flavors and luxurious texture to be filling and delicious.
