机场现状与来年规划Site of an airport now and how it will look next year

The diagrams compare what the Southwest Airport looks like now, and what this place will look like a year later, when the renovation work will finish. Overall, the Southwest Airport will be expanded, and it will offer far more facilities and better accessibility for passengers after the development work is done. As the map suggests, the airport now has a single arrival and departure area. The departure area is on the left of the main building and has a check-in counter for passengers and a cafe. The arrival area, on the other hand, does not have such amenities and looks empty. Straight ahead of the arrival area, customs and passport control could be seen. Similarly, passport control and security are located for departing passengers. The airport now has eight gates, two walkways, and check-in areas. After the development work, which is expected to finish next year, the airport will have eighteen gates and a sky train inside the airport. New shops will be built, and the departing passengers will have access to bag drop facilities. It will be built where the check-in point is now. Opposite to it, there will be the check-in point. The renovated airport will have more departure and entry points to serve more passengers at a time. It will also have ATMs and cafes for passengers in the arrival area. Finally, a car hire facility will also be included on the right side of the arrival hall.
