Day 3 - 12 March
Session: Increasing Airport Capacity

11:55 - 12:25 - Terminal balancing – optimisation and expansion within an existing terminal
Synopsis: The problem: to meet the projected 2035 demand within the existing terminal envelope. Solutions researched: reconfigure existing space, balance terminal capacity by moving airlines, remove obstructions to passenger flows, adapt to changing industry trends. Chosen solution: operational changes in the near term, long-term Unified Terminal Concept. The presentation will cover: airport description, background statistics, context and situation, overview of Master Plan recommendations, forecast activity, opportunities, constraints, industry uncertainty, technology innovation, security requirements, alternative solutions, optimisation of space, terminal balancing (by moving airlines), minimised expansion, recommended development plan, near-term plan (incremental approach), long-term concept.

Audience will learn:

• Sustainability as guiding principle
• Consistency with long-term approach
• Quality passenger experience
• Designs that meet capacity requirements and passenger processing needs
• Plans that can be implemented incrementally and be adapted and reprogrammed to meet changing needs
