Terminal 1 is only a quick walk, through a covered outside walkway, fromTerminal 3. It’s not the end of the world if people are dropped at terminal 3.

The main issue is going to be the security queues in Terminal 1, but clearly the airport doesn’t have enough security staff so opening T3 for security departures wouldn’t help. The same number of security staff across the two terminals.
