The picture illustrates plans for the renovation of Southwest Airport in the years to come.
Overall, it is apparent that the airport will experience numerous changes, the most predominant of which is the expansion of gates and the establishment of various amenities, such as shops, a car hire, and an ATM, all aimed at meeting the demands of customers.
The location of the departure and arrival entrances will remain the same but there are plans to install additional doors. Upon entering the airport, there is currently a single check-in and cafe. The future plan projects moving the check-in from the left to right side of the departure space, making space for a bag drop, and repositioning the café to the bottom left-hand corner. The arrival section will affix a cafe, ATM, and car hire which necessitates expanding the size of the building.
Security, passport control, and customs will be unchanged, however, the future floor plan shows shops immediately upon exiting the security section for departures. The largest proposed alterations are replacing a walkway with a long sky train track and constructing 2 branching corridors that will enable flyers to reach more than twice as many gates (8 at the moment and 18 after renovations).
