I was at the airport to receive someone. It was a disappointing sight. There were thousands sitting out -with no proper provision for those waiting. The boards announcing the arrival and departures at the arrival lounge are two small TV screens which are not even properly readable. Any international airport has large boards with this info! The passenger whp arrived complained that the aircraft is parked quite a distance away and th bus takes a circuitous route to reach the terminal. Baggage takes even a greater time to come and there are only three belts and when more flights land, there is a great scramble.
I am sorry that the main stake holder -Zurich airport are used to only small airports and not geared to design an airport of such a dimension.
I will be athe airport again tomorrow and will have some more feedback.
Re. connectivity, I went to the airport at midnight and ther wasnt too much traffic. But Idread to seee what happens between Mekri circle and Hebbal flyover. It took us only 20 minutes to cover 27 kms from hebbal flyover. Another suggestion- even after a two month delay in opening, there are no adequate boards on the whole route to tell us the way to the airport. This is tragic! MOre later!
