I'm afraid I have to agree with all the criticisms. Flew out of the new terminal a couple of weeks ago and was hoping that many of the deficiencies mentioned here were just teething problems or works waiting completion. Given the latest reports it appears not:
i. virtually no seats fitted at departure gates
ii. lack of and expense of food outlets -the cafe area in the old terminal on the left hand side just as you emerged from security was fine. Nothing to compare in the new terminal and the prices and lack of availability in the few small outlets!!!
iii. the arrows on the signs are totally confusing while the numbering of the floors defies logicality.
iv. entrance to the departure gates via the back of the Duty Free shop is just a joke.
Is the air conditioning problem just a breadown or has it not been installed (yet)?
