Melbourne Airport to build new terminal

Monday, 08 Dec, 2011 0

Melbourne Airport has followed Sydney Airport in announcing big changes.

Earlier this week Sydney Airport revealed plans to align airlines between existing terminals by 2019.

Now Melbourne is preparing to open a new interconnected domestic terminal by mid-2014.

It will mean all Melbourne terminals will be connected under one roof, allowing easy movement between airlines for domestic and international flights.

The Melbourne redevelopment will include a new multi-level car park, widened roads, new baggage facilities and several extra plane gates.

Melbourne Airport’s chief executive, Chris Woodruff, said, “We can’t say which airline or airlines will be using the new terminal, as those discussions are still to be had with the airlines.

”The expansion will take into account the anticipated growth of Virgin Australia as their business grows.”
