The Trump-Kim summit is underway, and not surprisingly security is tight – both on the ground and in the air.

On Sunday the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) introduced measures over the city state’s airspace that will remain in place until 11.59pm on June 14. These include speed limits as well as restrictions on the use of runways.

“Travellers are advised to expect delays for flights arriving at and departing from Singapore during this period” said a joint statement issued by CAAS and the Ministry of Defence.

But let’s look on the bright side, a delay at Singapore’s Changi Airport could in fact turn out to be a rather pleasant experience.
