Singapore Cable Car Sky Pass Review : A Great Way to 'Fly'
Despite not being able to fly for holidays this year due to Covid19, it does
not necessarily mean that we cannot get our foot off the ground.
There is always the
Cable Car experience that we could do in Singapore. A round trip from Mount Faber to Sentosa takes about 30 minutes. To double the fun, take a cable car ride within Sentosa on the Sentosa Line. This is as good as a flight to KL in terms of airtime.
Furthermore, there are lots to see during the flight. Instead of just clouds
in the sky, you get to enjoy aerial views of Singapore from 300 ft above sea
levels!

The cost of the flight would cost less than a plane ticket to KL for a family of 4. Local residents can enjoy the Cable Car Sky Pass for a round trip on both Sentosa Line and Mount Faber Line from $17.5 for child and $24.5 for adult. That is a savings of up to 30% compared to a one-way trip.

After Harbourfront, the Cable Car will travel across the Keppel Harbour en route to Sentosa.
Harbourfront Station |
Here you would have a bird's eye view of the Caribbean and Reflections
Condominiums on your right (towards Sentosa) and a view of Brani Island on the
left.

If you have a camera, do take photos of Brani Island before it disappears
( it will be revamped in the coming years to be a leisure spot)

Up ahead is Sentosa Island where the spawning Resort World Sentosa greets
you.

Here you can see the Universal Studios and even spot a couple of Dolphins from
Seaworld. On the far right, you can even spot the Skywalk from Fort Siloso.

located near the Luge Ride for your trip on the Sentosa Line

The cabins at Sentosa lines are colourful in contrast with the sleek black
cabins of Mount Faber Line.
Travel down to Merlion Station, a short 250 meters away to catch a glimpse of
the Merlion before it says its last goodbye.

Here you can exit to head to Universal Studios or Sea World. Alternatively,
stay in the cabin for an 880 meters ride to Siloso Beach.

Interesting, there is another 'cable car' ride on the island - The Luge
Skyride!

If you are in Sentosa, there is a special local resident rate of $2 for child
and $3 for an adult for a round trip on this line, making it convenient for
you to head from USS to Palawan or Siloso and vice versa.
The view on this line is as spectacular with views of Siloso Beach and beyond.
At Siloso Point, the main attractions are Siloso Beach, Fort Siloso and Rasa
Sentosa.
On the other side, you have paronomic views of the mainland.

After Siloso Point, head back to Palawan Station.
Disembark here and transfer back to Mount Faber Line for your ride back to the
mainland.
If you had not taken the cable car for a few years now, why not take the
family along for this experience. From December onwards, All Singaporeans aged
18 and above will get $100 worth of digital vouchers via Singpass. Hopefully,
this attraction will be included and you can then take your family on a flight
for FREE!*
As of now, masks wearing is compulsory, even on a flight. Do your part in
keeping Singapore safe by wearing your mask at all time!
