Man arrested in Singapore Changi Airport

for buying ticket just to wave his wife off at the gate

新加坡樟宜机场多次被知名媒体评为“世界最佳机场”，同时也是“旅客票选最佳机场”与“排名第一的全球最佳机场”。转机、候机原本是令人烦躁的事情，但不少旅客在樟宜机场逛吃逛吃3小时都嫌不够~如此高的好评率，想买了机票进机场逛一圈？

千万别！因为，买机票但不登机会被抓！

The misuse of boarding passes is an offense in Singapore, where transit areas are considered "protected places."

在新加坡，滥用登机牌是一种犯罪行为，过境区被认为是“受保护区域”。

Anyone accessing the gate-side areas at Changi without intending to fly can be prosecuted under Singapore's Infrastructure Protection Act and fined up to S$20,000 or imprisoned for up to two years.

根据新加坡《基础设施保护法》，任何无意登机而进入樟宜机场登机口区域的人都可能被起诉，并被处以最高2万新元罚款，或最长两年监禁。

The Singapore Police Force has issued a warning to residents not to "misuse" their boarding passes after a 27-year-old bought a ticket purely to walk his wife to the gate and had "no intention to depart Singapore."

一名27岁的男子买机票纯粹是为了陪妻子走到登机口，且“无意离境”。随后警方向居民发出警告，不要“滥用”登机牌。

Thirty three people have been arrested under the legislation in the first eight months of 2019.

2019年前八个月已有33人因此被捕。

When Changi's new Jewel terminal opened in April, it made headlines around the globe for its 40-meter waterfall, a 14,000-square-meter Canopy Park, complete with a suspension bridge, topiary and mazes, and one of Asia's largest indoor gardens with 3,000 trees and 60,000 shrubs.

今年四月，樟宜机场新建成的宝石航站楼开放刚刚开放，就因40米高的瀑布和1.4万平方米的星空花园而登上全球媒体头条。此外，这里还有吊桥、修剪成形的灌木和迷宫，以及有三千棵树和六万棵灌木的亚洲最大室内花园。

In 2016, a Malaysian man was jailed after he spent 18 days in Changi, forging boarding passes to gain entry to nine airport lounges. Shortly afterward, a couple was arrested for booking flexible tickets to gain access to the Changi shopping mall, where they bought an iPhone 7.

2016年，一名马来西亚男子因伪造登机牌进入9个机场候机室，在樟宜机场呆了18天后被判入狱。不久之后，一对夫妇因预订了可改签票前往樟宜机场购物中心而被捕，他们在那里买了一部iPhone 7手机。

Other passengers have been known to book refundable tickets which they cancel before the flight takes off, having enjoyed the airport.

据了解，还有一些乘客预订了可退款机票，开心地逛完机场以后在飞机起飞前办理了退票。
