Please note that some published services and schedules may be subject to change. If the idea is to spend the night in the public area, consider a plan B in case the stay inside the airport is only allowed for those who are about to board.
Spending the night at the airport
Singapore Airport is a vast place with numerous activities to enjoy while waiting for your flight, including a city tour, making it one of the best airports to spend the night. It is advisable to bring earplugs and a sleep mask. Additionally, the airport tends to be cold at night, so it's best to carry a jacket. Sleeping in an airport always involves some level of risk, especially when travelling alone. Stay aware of your surroundings and do not leave your valuables in plain sight. You may also ask the security staff about the quietest places to rest.
