  1. Terminal Design

  2. Some thoughts from Mark Day (LEX)… • Expansions are greatly limited based on the initial configuration. • Similar comments to planning must be considered as these are long term investments based on short term airline commitments. • Are concessions and business development considered?

  3. Terminal Design Objectives • Walking distances • Aesthetic design • Services • Security • Cost effectiveness

  4. Terminal Functions • Surface access • Road-terminal • Passenger processing • Ticket counters • Baggage claim • Flight interface • Gates • Services

  5. Access Interface • Curb-front • Enplaning (Departures) • Deplaning (Arrivals) • Parking • Long term • Short term • Roadways • Access • Circulation

  6. Passenger Flow Arriving Pax/Visitors Departing Pax/Visitors Originating Pax Terminating Pax Enplaning Pax Connecting Pax Deplaning Pax Outbound Pax Through Pax Inbound Pax

  7. Passenger Processing • Ticket counters • Ticketing • Baggage handling • Airline offices • Services • Retail • Concessions • Lobbies • Baggage claim • Airline offices

  8. Flight Interface • Security • Departure lounges • Corridors • Gates

  9. Central – Finger/Pier Central - Remote Satellite Central – Pier Satellite Terminal Design Concepts Linear Central

  10. Remote-Central Unit Terminals (LAX) Terminal Design Concepts (cont’d) Compact Modular Transporter

  11. Short walking distances from cars Easy passenger orientation Long curb lengths Low costs Simple baggage devices Easy separation between arrivals and departures Duplication of services Long walking distance for transfers Limited expansion options Linear Terminal Cons Pros Linear Central

  12. Less space Short walking distances More curb lengths Confusing to passengers Long walking distance for transfers Extensive flight information systems Compact Modular Terminal Cons Pros Paris, Charles Degaulle

  13. Centralization of services Fewer employees Best security option Simple flight information systems Insufficient curb length Long walking distances Limited expansion options Limited aircraft maneuvaribility Pier/Finger Terminal Cons Pros

  14. Pier/Finger Terminal

  15. Centralization of airline activities Good expansion options Good passenger orientation Simple information systems Good for security control Long walking distances People moving systems Small curbside Limited expansion for main terminal Remote/Central Terminal Cons Pros

  16. Remote/Central Terminal Atlanta

  17. Good for small airports Easy passenger orientation Short walking distances Possible separation between arrivals and departures High costs Large connecting times Limited expansion options Insufficient curbside Transporter Terminal Cons Pros

  19. Vertical Distribution (1/2) • One level • Simplicity • Passenger flow • Curbside • Small airport (Mexico City) • Passenger separation in terminal

  20. Vertical Distribution (2/2) • Two-level • Arrival/departure separation • Double curbside • Larger airports • Passenger separation in concourse
