Over the past few days, a traveler took to social media to declare Singapore's Changi Airport as the "most incompetent" she had ever experienced. The complaint centered around the airport's carpeting, a specific design choice that reduces noise and makes walking easier. The traveler, who goes by Flo on social media and works in crypto, visited Singapore for work and took to X to express her dissatisfaction.
She wrote, "now which stupid *** decided to put down CARPET at the Singapore airport," followed by a post calling the airport the most incompetent.
Flo's complaints included two security lanes being open at a time when multiple planes were departing, causing chaos as the departure times neared. She criticized the airport's UX, stating that in today's world, there are quieter and sleeker materials available. The traveler also complained about the lack of convenience stores and mentioned that some passengers had to throw away their beverages after the gate shuffle announcement.
Despite being questioned about her experience, Flo claimed to have traveled to at least 20 countries over the past two years and arrived at Changi Airport more than two and a half hours ahead of her departure.
