Remote-Central Unit Terminals Terminal Design Concepts (cont’d) Compact Modular Transporter
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
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
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
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
Remote/Central Terminal Atlanta
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
Vertical Distribution (1/2) • One level • Simplicity • Passenger flow • Curbside • Small airport (Mexico City) • Passenger separation in terminal
Vertical Distribution (2/2) • Two-level • Arrival/departure separation • Double curbside • Larger airports • Passenger separation in concourse
