The diagram illustrates the differences between the present and the planned layout of a Southwest airport following extensive renovations. Overall, significant changes are expected, particularly the addition of multiple gates and modern facilities. Notably, the passport control areas will remain in their current positions.
Moving to the southern side of the airport, the entrances for departures and arrivals will retain their current locations but will feature additional doors. Currently, there is a cafe in the departures area, whereas post-renovation, both arrivals and departures will each have two cafes.
On the western side of the airport, the check-in counters will be relocated to the right-hand side to accommodate a new bag drop area. A notable development will be the expansion of the arrivals terminal, which will also include a car hire facility at one corner and an ATM on the right-hand side.
Turning to the northern part, security and customs passport control areas will remain unchanged, with a shop planned above the security entrance. The current rectangular area with eight gates will be transformed into a Y-shaped zone with an additional ten gates. Additionally, a sky train will be introduced next year, replacing the current walkway.
