MRT.

With suitcase? Splash out on a cab.

airport is pretty far from raffles place..and if your flight lands around midnight, cab fare will be 50% more expensive..

However,train ends around 11++ pm too..so you gotta take a cab, no choice.

It's only money and you cannot take it with you. Get a cab. Life's too short. Anyway it's a Singapore experience getting a cab

Ok cab it is.

Number 36 Bus, drops off close to Raffles

I once got a bus from the airport home to Geylang (without luggage) just to see where it went. It went e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e...

I still say MRT is doable, in these days of trolley cases, although I wouldn't because I'm lazy.

Wow you must've been desperate, although a taxi would've been quicker and maybe he could've advised on the best place.

Yeah I know you lived there.

Cheeky.

(Yes, I can see what you wrote in invisible ink )

36 bus to Raffles is actually ok. goes down ecp to Marine parade then back on ECP until Suntech

Kooky.

Oh yeah I remember that one, was considering living up near the Bayshore at one time so sussed out transport to the city from there.

If you are determined, you can board the MRT at Changi Airport station and alight at Raffles MRT station. Then walk or hail a cab to your hotel.

Lugging a luggage onto the bus is a bad idea, I don't think you will find the space. There is a MRT (train station) at Changi Airport itself, but it is a distance away, you can walk there with your luggage on stroller mode, but it depends on how determined you are I guess.

Inselaffen

you would get off at City Hall rather than Raffles MRT

sgbroll

No actually you get off at Simei and walk.
