I’m Changi Terminal 2 and I’m not seeing any tokens being exchanged. Are you sure that this was not airline-specific?

Side note for the unaware: Singapore’s airport has screening at each and every gate instead of a joint one right after passport control.

This was at Changi Terminal 3.

The screening at the gate is annoying IMO, because you can't buy a drink to take on the plane. It's my only complaint about Changi.

You can take drinks on the plane? I don't think it is a good idea.

Non-alcoholic drinks, sure. I usually buy a bottle of water at least, flight attendants are not always able to serve drinks, it helps to bring something with you.

OP here. My bad. Apparently they only give the token when you leave your phone or computer, but not always.
