A newly opened $1.7 billion terminal has rendered the 33-year-old landside terminal largely redundant. The old facility has been mostly idle since the inauguration of the modern replacement.
- The original landside terminal, operational for 33 years, is now largely unused. Its cessation of activity is directly linked to the opening of a new, significantly more expensive terminal. This $1.7 billion facility represents a substantial investment and a modern upgrade. The transition means the older infrastructure has become obsolete. The economic implications of maintaining or decommissioning the old terminal will likely be a consideration. The new terminal's opening signifies a shift in operational capacity and passenger handling.
