THE first-quarter numbers are in and the skies remain dark for Changi Airport and its key partner, Singapore Airlines (SIA).
Between January and last month, Changi welcomed just 8.5 million passengers - a drop of 8.4 per cent compared with the same period last year.

SIA, which accounts for about half of Changi's total business, fared worse, with traffic for the first three months sliding 17.8 per cent to 3.9 million passengers.
