Changi Airport’s search for its Seventh Millionaire continues

Lucky Indian shopper emerges to be the first finalist

Changi Airport Group’s anchor retail promotion ‘Be a Changi Millionaire’ is running its seventh season this year, with larger-than-life fun installations located around Changi Airport’s terminals, as well as a S$1 million grand prize for the annual shopping promotion, the largest cash prize of any retail draw in Singapore to date. Everything you spend on at Changi Airport, from your favorite food, shopping for that latest handbag or picking up those skincare products online before your next holiday can get you closer to being a millionaire.

Changi’s very first finalist for Changi Millionaire (May 2016) has been unveiled and he is Mr. Animesh Singh, an Indian who stays in Singapore. The 36-year-old picked up his winning purchase from DFS Wines & Spirits on his way from Mumbai to Singapore for a leisure trip.

From now till 31 October 2016, in addition to standing a chance of having their millionaire dreams come true, shoppers and diners at Changi Airport can also visit four event sites around the airport for some exciting photo opportunities. This year, participating in Changi’s flagship shopping promotion has become even more convenient. Other than submitting their entries at the event sites at Changi Airport, shoppers and diners can also do so online in the comfort of their homes and at their convenience.

Airport visitors and passengers simply need to spend a minimum of S$50 to participate in the draw. One lucky finalist will be picked each month till October for the Grand Draw. In addition to the introduction of a seventh finalist picked from iShopChangi shoppers in 2015, an eighth finalist will be picked from Changi Rewards Platinum card participants this year. Shoppers will be delighted to know that the number of winning chances increases exponentially with the amount spent – a S$50 spend gives the shopper one chance at the draw, a $100 spend gives the shopper 10 chances, while a $500 spend gives the shopper 100 chances. Besides, travelers who shop on iShopChangi – Changi Airport’s e-commerce portal– or Platinum members of the Changi Rewards loyalty programme, receive double the chances.

For the Grand Draw in early 2017, all eight finalists will each win a three-night hotel stay in Singapore, with one finalist eventually bagging the grand prize of S$1 million. The other finalists will each win S$5,000 in cash.
