  • The existing walkways connecting satellite 2 (gates 81-88) and satellite 3 will be demolished in favour of 3 new 'skylink' walkways equipped with travelators that will connect the extended terminal to the 3 satellites;
  • A new baggage handing facility will be built to the lefthand side of the terminal building.
So far, nothing mentioned on any other work, including satellite modernisation, however, no doubt this will become clearer once MAG receive planning approval.

According to the report, this is what the proposed terminal reconfiguration will look like upon completion:


Yeah most as mentioned before.
The new baggage handling building to the left was new for most people. No mention or rumours of this prior. It will also handle the domestic arrivals within it too.

I doubt any word on changes to the satellites will come until this project gets approved.

Obviously the plans for now are very basic but I’m sure better and clear images will be provided in due course.

If plans are accepted MAG intends to start works from the end of the year.
