T3 of the CCSI Airport has various key features to provide seamless experience to flyers including DigiYatra, adequate check-in counters, common use self-service kiosks, automated tray retrieval systems, advanced baggage screening machines. baggage reclaim belts and aerobridges & parking bays for aircraft.
The newly constructed apron will increase the passenger boarding gates from seven to 13 and passenger boarding bridges from two to seven. At present, the airport connects 29 domestic and eight international destinations. The capacity augmentation will help in improving its operational efficiency substantially.
An out-of-the-world audio-visual experience has been brought to life at the airport with the art and architecture of Uttar Pradesh, starting from the entry gates to the skylight. The check-in counters will mesmerise passengers with illuminated motifs of ‘Chikankari’ and ‘Mukaish’ embroidery. Graphics on the frosting depict stories from epics, such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata.
The airport has several sustainability features and adequate deployment of recyclable materials. It will be a multi-modal travel hub with metro connectivity, intercity electric bus service, and app-based taxi services.
