New terminal 3(Cairo international airport),EgyptAir

As part of the ambitious plan to upgrade Egypt's civil aviation facilities begun in 2002 by HE Ahmad Shafik, the Minister of Civil Aviation, upgrades continue at Terminal 3 with renovated facilities, VIP Lounges and The Air Mall. Current projects include a new Control Tower and a new third Runway, to accommodate future traffic developments. Further ongoing developments include a 5-star Hotel, an Automated People Mover and an Extended Metro Line linking the Airports with Giza.Once operational, the impressive EGP 3.1 billion new TB3 (Terminal Building 3) will be one of the largest terminals in North Africa doubling our current airport's passenger capacity." Said HE Ahmad Shafik.The new Terminal's design will help EgyptAir and its Alliance partners reduce transfer time between flights to just 45 minutes, regardless of whether the transfers are domestic, international, or a mix of the two and with different Alliance partners. The terminal is equipped with the latest state-of-the-art technology including self-service kiosks (CUSS) in the check-in hall, biometric immigration and fully automated baggage-handling system with integrated online screening. This is in addition to information kiosks, strategically placed throughout the building. Thus, the New IT system will ensure an efficient and cost-effective operation.
