Flight Landing | Amazing View | Madurai International Airport | Incredible India

Описание: Madurai Airport is the most aestheticaly maintained airport located in the Temple city of Madurai. The airport has direct connectivity with international destinations like Colombo, Dubai and Singapore. The airport is also well connected with popular domestic destinations like Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai and New Delhi.

The airport has two adjacent terminals, the old terminal and the new integrated terminal. Currently, the integrated terminal is used for both international and domestic purposes. The old terminal had been converted to a Cargo Terminal from 28 November 2017. Due to exponential growth of the airport in the recent years, building separate domestic and international terminals are in the plans.

As a part of modernising 35 non-metro airports, AAI constructed a new, state-of-the-art, integrated passenger terminal adjacent to the old terminal. The ₹1.29 billion (US$17 million) new terminal building was inaugurated on 12 September 2010. A total of 610 acres (250 ha) of land is under acquisition for the expansion of the runway to 12,500 ft (3,800 m) to accommodate large jet aircraft. This terminal with an area of 17,560 m2 (189,000 sq ft) can handle a passenger capacity of 250 each on arrival and departure. The airport parking area has the capacity to park 375 cars and 10 buses. Some of the features of the new terminal include:

16 check-in counters
12 immigration counters
2 security counters
5 customs counters
3 conveyor belts (47 m (154 ft) each)
2 X-ray scanners for baggage
7 aircraft parking stand
3 Aero-bridges
E-visa facility

The new terminal has two lounges: a VIP lounge managed by AAI and a Commercial Important Persons (CIP) lounge managed by Tamil Nadu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (TNCC-Madurai).
