Overall sales at Jewel also grew by 20% as it continues to recover from impact of Covid-19.

SINGAPORE - Jewel Changi Airport continued on its recovery path in the financial year ending March 31, 2024, with footfall at the $1.7 billion retail complex growing by 26 per cent compared with the year before.

Marking its fifth year of operation on April 17, Jewel said in a statement it is now on “a strong footing”, though it did not provide specific visitor and sales figures, citing commercial sensitivities. Jewel said about 30 per cent of its visitors between April 2023 and March 2024 were tourists, with travellers from China, Malaysia, Taiwan, the US and Indonesia making up the top five by volume.

There will be a new five-minute light-and-music show at the Rain Vortex, the indoor waterfall, starting from April 17. From the second half of 2024, visitors will be able to participate in a new behind-the-scenes tour of the 40m-tall waterfall.
