Major infra upgrade starts at city airport's terminal 2
Jaipur: Jaipur International Airport has commenced 14 projects with an investment of over Rs 600 crore for infrastructure development and upgrade at Terminal 2, officials said Tuesday. This is being done in view of the increasing passenger load at the airport, they said. Officials stated that 15,000 square meters of expansion will significantly enhance the capacity of the existing terminal. Currently, the terminal has 39 check-in counters, and 24 new counters are planned to be added. This will reduce waiting time for passengers to a large extent. "These projects collectively aim to elevate the infrastructure of Jaipur airport, ensuring it meets international benchmarks and provides an enhanced travel experience," said the airport's spokesperson. In addition to new check-in counters, the airport is also adding eight self-baggage drop (SBD) counters. The security screening process will be enhanced with nine new X-ray baggage inspection system (XBIS) machines. An automative tray retrieval system is also being added at the terminal. "This increase will enable fast and thorough screening of baggage. Boarding gates are also being increased from six to 10. Two new entry gates will be added, taking the total number to six. The installation of two new aero bridges on the second floor of Terminal 2 will facilitate easier boarding and deboarding of passengers and will reduce the turnaround time," added the official.
